Writer

Since I was a young woman I have wanted to be a published writer. They say that one requirement is to read, read, read. And I have done that. I guess this blog is my foray into the writing world and it is free publishing.
I would love to write the great American novel but in reading other novels, I wonder if I have it in me to have maintain all the characters in an intricate plot. Another thing I would love to write is a devotional, as I do here, to encourage others in the challenges of life by the way God encourages me.
But perhaps I will end up writing an autobiography. That is something I know about.
God writes biographies too. The Bible is full of history, which is His Story. Scriptures are mostly written of the past, except the book of Revelation. But God has authored a biography or each of us.
David put is this way:
Every day of your life was written in a book before one came to be.
That means that he knows the end of my book , of Jon’s book, the last page, the last day. Each chapter that we have already lived tells of his unfailing love and his great blessings and eternal promises lived out in our lives.
Yet, there are chapters yet unlived by us, though God has already written them. One of them includes cancer. God says he has a plan to give us hope and a future.
Jon hopes that is as a very short chapter followed by many other ‘fun ones’.
