THE BOOK
4th of July. The Kings had just retired to Idaho and were relaxing with their old friends, the Leers. The fireworks began and wow what a show. It was spectacular! With the last of the fireworks done we all started to get our chairs to leave when all of a sudden there was another fire show in the sky. What was this? It was peculiar but people decided it probably was a shooting star…until the next morning. The cell phones were not working..the tv, the radio, the computers…everything was down, or was it? What was it that they saw last night in the sky?
What do you think? A few weeks ago a man named Larry said I was going to write a book, a novel to be specific. I was not to turn to the right or to the left..to not be distracted..to not focus on all the cares of the world, of my world. It wasn’t until Kev and I went to Greer Az over the 4th of July did I come up with a book to write. It was not like anything I could imagine but I was excited to get started. And so I am. For the first time in a long time I wasn’t distracted at Greer. I had time to relax and ponder my dreams. For awhile I have felt worthless, as if I can’t do anything right. I used to think I was good at some things but everyday I seem to be falling short of what is required of me. Until God put this idea for a book on my heart. I was hoping it would pay for our retirement but it may just be my family who reads it! But that's not really the point is it? All of us have been created for a purpose. Sometimes it takes awhile to find it but the journey to get there is just as important as the actual destination. Are you still trying to find your purpose? Are you on the path towards it but have pushed the “pause” button because of the various obstacles in your way? Jesus knew His purpose and yet He was 33 years old before He “officially” started. Was He wasting time for all those years? God NEVER allows us to go thru times that are wasted. They ALL matter to our final pathway. Im 63 about to embark on writing a book. Who would have thought? God did. I encourage you not to give up on your dreams..hit the “go” button now and pray that God set aside the obstacles that are keeping you from finding true fulfillment. So, got any idea what the title of my book will be? Stay turned…I can see God smiling right now cause He already knows the ending..we win..
