Last year I participated in the 31 days writing series in October and wrote on Finding God. I was excited that I finished the month with writing every day but honestly I didn’t think that I would do it again.
You see I have had very few words to share here lately.
I write when I am inspired..when I feel God has given me something to share. If I try and force it, well it just isn’t good. I know some authors are able to perfect their craft by just writing every day even if they aren’t inspired…I just can’t do that.
Then I took a few days to get away with a dear friend and inspiration hit. It was like my mind knew I was leaving and on the first plane ride I had a theme and using the writing prompts from the wonderful writers of the Five Minute Friday (FMF) group…I set to work.
In that weekend away I wrote 26 of the 31 posts! Crazy right?! Go God is all I can say. So next month I am excited to be sharing some stories about how I am seeking and seeing God. He has been a part of my life, even when I didn’t “feel” it. Looking back I can see how His hand has been in every moment.
But how quickly I forget. Call it pride or stubbornness, the whispers of the enemy telling me I am not worthy of God’s love. It has happened time and time again that I forget all God has done with me and through me. But He is faithful even when I doubt. In seeking Him each day I have been reminded of that truth.
It is my prayer that by sharing these stories you too will be encouraged to seek God. Look for Him, chase after Him, know Him in a new and real way. They aren’t terribly long posts, little stories written around the daily FMF word prompt and enveloping the theme of how I am seeking God.
I hope you stick with me next month and I would love to hear how you too are seeking and seeing God’s hand in your life!
Looking forward to reading. I too will be using the 5MF prompts, however, I don’t have a specific theme. Just going to see what comes out. Have a blessed week.
Can’t wait to see what you come up with Barbie! Love these prompts…I don’t think I could do this without them!
This is exciting girl. I cannot wait to read your posts!!! love you
Thanks so much Jenn!! You are always such a cheerleader for me!
