It is the middle of January and I am waiting for something good to happen. I have two short stories and three poems entered in several writing contests. The wait is almost over to discover if any submission was considered good enough to win or place. I feel one or two just might have been, but then I am not the judge.
I am passionate about inspirational writing. Sometimes I read something I have written and think, wow that’s really good. It is those times that I consciously acknowledge the unseen help that I know I have. I can’t possibly be that smart all by myself. Perhaps I am simply a good listener and pass on what I am given to others.
When I first started writing I believed I had a muse and then I became aware of a spiritual guide whom I called Richard. I either wore him out or he is still on the vacation I suggested he take. Lately I have had the assistance of the Archangel Jophiel who gently insists I filter challenges through his/her positive eyes. It changes my perspective- a lot.
So while waiting for something good to happen I continue writing with the hope that what I write will help someone else.

Barbara,
ReplyDeleteI hope your wait is productive. I too re-read some of my journaling and say "Wow! I couldn't have written that!" :) The truth is, we did not write it totally on our own. That's why my blog's name is simply that "A Pencil in the Hand of God" I know the gift and inspiration is from Hm.
I am so excited to see that you visited my site today and even followed. I hope you read something that can be a blessing to you as well
Hope the wait isn't too long!
Blessings

It is not the first time I have visited your site, but this time I realized our messages come from the same source; we simply have a different way of expressing them. How boring if we all said the same thing in exactly the same way.
ReplyDeleteBarbara,
ReplyDeleteI believe spirit led you to me, and me back to you. I so much enjoyed reading your posts and feel I have found a kindred spirit. I look forward to "tuning in" to your continued inspiration!
Thank you Cynthia. I found you on WOW! Women on Writing. Following my intuition reaps surprising rewards. If you ever wish to communicate in a less public manner please feel free to use my email address: Begunn37@q.com.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting and thought provoking way of thinking about your gifts. Thanks for sharing!
