I stopped writing. I guess you could say I became complacent (expecting the words to jump out of heaven and land on paper, bypassing my pen), such folly! I became quite dispassionate about sharing my gift with the world (I’m sorry, Lord!). I’m back now, more determined than ever to encourage and inspire you by God’s grace.

Here’s a poem I wrote last week, as I pondered on the joy of my faith;

“More than the joy of fulfilled promises on this side of eternity,
Is the joy of seeing Jesus face-to-face.

In that moment, there’ll be no questions, no tears, no pain.
Only joy, greater than anything we can ever imagine,
Joy unspeakable and full of glory,
Hallelujah, Amen!”

P.S: Thank you for supporting me over the years, I look forward to more consistent and fresh expressions of creativity. Stick around, will ya?!
