As a Christian I would like to put the energy I have in my writing into constructive thoughts. My writing, of course, won't appeal to all readers. I trust, however, those who resonate with me will be blessed. I trust you are doing well these days Sharon and that life is being gentle with you. Blessings on you and your family my friend!Alan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01192838076987472527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-9897708358852979752016-05-24T16:44:16.502-07:002016-05-24T16:44:16.502-07:00I appreciate your mention of our need to respect a...I appreciate your mention of our need to respect and appreciate our readers. Your reminder to each of us to use our writing gifts to bless rather than curse our readers is well taken, Alan. We are responsible for what we say and what we write. I agree that social media can be used for good or for evil and that each of us needs to pause and reflect before clicking the Post button. Thanks for your well-considered and well-written blog. May you also keep writing.Sharon Espesethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13013272853384312117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-49444721900515045562016-05-23T15:23:19.779-07:002016-05-23T15:23:19.779-07:00Hi Gloria! I always appreciate you comments on my ...Hi Gloria! I always appreciate you comments on my posts. Although I've done a lot of public speaking through the years I love to write. It seems at times my written words are my friends more than my spoken words.That probably sounds a bit goofy! Thank you for saying I have much to share. I think this is what you and I have in common with our InScribe friends. We have a built in desire to share our words, ourselves, with others through what we write. Keep writing and sharing Gloria!

It may be that there is more time and thought put into the words and we can even edit them but when I speak, sometimes I speak too hastily or say something that I later regret. I agree that humbleness is a mark of a Christian writer and is God working in us so that we can better share the truth with those around us. Keep writing Alan. You have so much to share.Gloria Lynn Guesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14144091313075005581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-83365587226608380572016-05-22T14:09:12.279-07:002016-05-22T14:09:12.279-07:00Thank you for the encouragement Tracy.

Writing is a humbling thing. It is a great privilege for us when someone chooses to take their precious time and read what we have written. may we never forget that. Thanks for a good post. Sometimes short and sweet has more impact!Tracy Krausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05066853243062725525noreply@blogger.com
