I write because it's the natural overflow of who I am, of my relationship with the Creator. As He fills my life with His love, His peace, His comfort I can't contain it for long.
It overflows because it comes from His inexhaustible supply. I am a mere receptacle,
a jar of clay. The more I receive from Him the more I have to give.
It's not what I do; it's who I am, a receptacle of His love, dispensing that which has been poured lavishly into me to fill the cup of another's life. It's who I am; can a songbird be silent?
Just as a tree gives shade or water quenches thirst or a blanket gives warmth,
I've simply allowed God to use me, as He chooses,
to fill a need in the human family.

Like a tiny but necessary thread, He has tenderly, lovingly woven me into the fabric of humanity. I write because... "my heart is overflowing with a good theme; I recite my composition concerning the King; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer...
 
I will make Your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore the people shall praise You forever and ever." Psalm 45:1,17 "For in Him we live and move and
have our being, as also some of your own poets have said,
‘For we are His offspring.'" Acts 17:28
