Stepping Out

I have been holding back for the last several years from putting my writings out for the world to see. Fear? Yes, to some degree. Fear of others stealing what belongs to me. Fear that others will not enjoy or benefit from the things I enjoy writing about. But I believe what is in me has been given by God, and He has given his best and his all freely, so shouldn't I be free to put what He has given me and what He has taught me it out there, too?

A couple of years ago I attended a Christian Writer's Conference, and I asked the question to an Agent who spoke that year. I asked about the risks of what I write being stolen by someone else when posting on the internet such as on a blog or website. His response to me was to step out and stop higging or others will never read what I have written. Publishers surf all the time looking for new and fresh writers.

So, I am stepping out of my comfort zone. Stepping out of my security and self-made boundries. Exciting? Yes! Hopeful? Yes! Hopeful that others will be blessed by somthing I have written. Optomistic that there is a possibility that a publisher or an agent will find me and my potential profitable enough to contact me.

All that I have and all that I am I give to God and for his glory. I'm nothing without him and desire that others will find the Lord through this ministry.

I've been spending some of my Christmas eve working on my website today. In between doing household jobs, preparing meals and helping my husband with his new insulin pump I haven't gotten a whole lot accomplished. But, this is in part of what this blog is about.

There are many side of life I will be able to share from in this ministry. I'm excited that the Lord has given me a platform to minister to those in leadership, women, and about restoration, healing, and from a minister's home. We have faced so many challenges and struggles; and out of all the diversities we will still proclaim the Lord is victorious and our Mighty King!

My husband and I have been in ministry over 36 years from which have been from pastoring and as evangelist. Currently I am an Administration Secretary for a local hospital. I have an online devotion ministry from my job that I started about 7 years ago. At present it goes across the United States and to the soldiers in Iraq. Many prayer request come in and I forward those needs to a wonderful group of intercessors who take those requets to the Lord in prayer.

My husband is not only a minister, but also a retired General Contractor and Consultant. He has faced many debilitating health problems that has forced him to be disabled. He continues to face issues with diabetes and his heart. January 4th, 2013 is his 2nd year post-op new lease on life after his five bypass surgery. That event alone had been the hardest trial for us both. God is so good through it all!

I have so much to share, and I hope many will reap the benefits from this ministry. Check back soon and I will have more content.
