But God always reveals His relentless love for me and provides a way back on track whether it is through His Word, through someone else's words or through His inspirational creation. He is good and faithful. Thanks for sharing your heart and I hope to meet you at conference.

Still I am glad that you get the idea that I'm encouraging you to continue to write. I've gone through these periods of wanting to give up, but I know that I too would be miserable not writing.<br /><br />PS. I saw Hamlet at Stratford many moons ago, and I too listen to this with longing. You and your daughter will have to enjoy the play enough for all of us.Sharon Espesethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13013272853384312117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-42306367372612891012015-08-17T10:37:02.055-07:002015-08-17T10:37:02.055-07:00It's as if you read my mind (or my mail).

I too contemplate laying it all down (even though I know it would make me miserable), deleting my blog which has fallen by the way side etc. etc. Thanks for sharing your heart. My blog on this subject is due tomorrow and we will have to see what I manage to come up with that says it as well as you have. It can be quite the struggle can't it? And no simple, easy answers.

Ha ha. I'm like you. I fight such periods tooth and nail. The fact that your journalling, though, makes me think our Lord is going use this season for his glory through your writing. It sounds like you're on firm ground. May the Lord bless you in all you're going through and show his hand powerfully day by day.Bobbi Juniorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16366421883424533929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-50288613200664516072015-08-16T22:27:34.926-07:002015-08-16T22:27:34.926-07:00Yes, I agree!

Looking back, I believe my writing has delivered me from the depths of despair, helped me see more clearly what is going on in my life, put growth rings on the tree that is my life, preserved my sanity, and brought me closer to God. During darker days, Scripture verses, prayers, and sorting things out have become an integral part of my writing. <br /><br />These activities have taught me lessons and helped me appreciate the dawn of new days and new attitudes on faith and life. I agree with with your son's and your friend's perspective on this. Some day you may look at these experiences as nectar for making honey. Your son seems like an astute young man, who knows and loves his mother very much. Remember that God has carved you on the palm of his hand.Sharon Espesethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13013272853384312117noreply@blogger.com
