It was a good reminder to me and to my writing group when I brought a bottle to them. Yes, it really is God who helps us become more disciplined and obedient in our writing. Sometimes a visual helps too. Thanks for letting me know it stuck with you.Sharon Espesethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13013272853384312117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-49581465642767927932017-02-12T14:32:27.733-07:002017-02-12T14:32:27.733-07:00Using some bum glue, a product manufactured by God...Using some bum glue, a product manufactured by God, brand name "Discipline" or "Obedience" and available as often as we need it. Sharon, I laughed at this picture as it grew in my mind from your writing, but it "stuck" with me and has been a good conviction / encouragement for me.

We all have ups and downs. I think we learn more from the downs, because we want to do what we can to be feeling more joyful. For me, one of those things to do is pray. Another one is to write, so I must not forget these two resources that are gifts.<br /><br />Thanks, Brenda, for your comment and your joy-filled wishes.

I try to remember to pray that my writing reaches the right people. As writers (and teachers in our case), we do hit some of the same pot holes on our rough roads through life. Even when the way is going pretty smooth, we may hit a low spot that makes us bounce in our seats. We may need to shift our positions to get comfortable again.

I'm baking bread right now, so I'll check later, but it is so common to wonder if we are enough and do enough. I have a book to reread and review on that topic of being enough. You are welcome for my post.
