BEST SELLER

Thanks to all who helped! I actually made it onto the Amazon Best Seller list for “Relgious Science Fiction and Fantasy” and have been in the top 20 since last week when the giveaway happened!

By the way, nearly 6,000 e-book copies were given away and subsequently nearly 70 sold in this last week! Praise the Lord!

♥ Please PRAY for the seed that has been sown! ♥

Triggers & Tripwires

Last evening a random thought about a campfire released, after 6 years, my grief for my father [we had spent much time camping when I was a child]. The Lord nudged my muse and let me know that I needed to write about this – and that this would be another insight to add to my latest novel.

This is my offering to you, my friends, who are traveling somewhere on that difficult journey called “Grief”!

PHANTOM HARVEST

 PHANTOM HARVEST
[Thoughts on the Will of God]

To worry and stew
‘Bout a different you
And not work with what you have now,
Is to dream while you sleep
Of the harvest you’ll reap
When you’ve never put your hand on the plow.

~
No contentment you’ll find
In your wandering mind,
You’ll just struggle ‘gainst how life’s been slanted;
You’ll find no place that’s fair,
Find no peace anywhere,
‘Till you learn to bloom where you’re planted!

Great Review!

Author Ashley Wintters [pen name = "Ashley Dawn"] has written a great review for my Sci-Fi novel, “THE PLAYERS: Earth – The Arena, Book 1“.

Garbage and Other Redemptive Thoughts

Garbage:
The discarded flotsam of Christmas past,
Once festive red and green in its brightness,
Now turned brittle brown with age, by neglect, from abuse.
Unwanted.

Garbage:
The shredded score of soaring notes,
Once holding the creative dreams of genius,
Now the beat is beaten, the pitch flattened, the song unsung.
Unfulfilled.

Garbage:
The broken fantasy of love,
Once smiling families, consumed and corrupted
Now by hate-filled, hell-filled, horror-filled hearts.
Unreconciled.

Redemption:
The powerful touch of gentle, loving Hands
Once nail-pierced, still scarred,
Now working tirelessly to reclaim, transform, restore
[As only He can]
Garbage.

“WHITE-WATER” A Writer Contemplates

White Water

The River raged before me
        Sharp in its swiftness:
                Jagged rocks, White foam.
Tentative, from shore,
        I pondered the craft I would enter:
                Feeble shelter, imperfect home.
What right had I
        To think that I could challenge
                This gauntlet, nature raw.
Others might…
        Their skill a galleon,
                Bearing up, not to fall.
So here I stand precarious
        Poised on danger:
                Wet toes, cold heart;
Afraid of
        The very vessel I had crafted:
                Do I dare? Do I start?

Words.
        Words, they are my vessel:
                Invisible, unsure.
Dare I launch them
        On the River?
                Will they float? Will they endure?

C.H.R.I.S.T.M.A.S. from Hebrews 1

Hebrew 1:2-6 says Jesus Christ is:

Creator of the Worlds
Heir of All Things
Resplendence of God’s Glory
Image of God’s Substance
Sustainer of All Things
Throne-Sitter
More Excellent Than Angels
Angels Worship Him
Son of God

The Book Signing Was GREAT!

Book Signing at FBCM Heavenbound Media Center

Thanks to everyone who came out!

It was great to meet with old friends and to make some new ones.

I even got a promise of a blog review of both novels from one of my attendees!

I still have some paperbacks left, if anyone missed the event, but still wants a signed copy.
