All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3, verses 16 and 17
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope. Romans 15, verse 4

My News (In Case You Didn't Hear... :)

Excuse me if this is a repeat for some of you (cuz I posted this all over Facebook and Twitter, and on the FaithWriters boards, and in an email), but I just HAVE TO make sure everybody knows my EXCITING news.

Many of you know I've been working on my  nonfiction book about God's work in our family for several years - and that I submitted it to the One Hope Nonfiction Contest at Write Integrity Press.

Well, yesterday, they announced that I WON THE CONTEST!

I still have some work to do on the manuscript, but, God willing, it looks like my book is gonna be PUBLISHED!

I'm totally twitterpated (LOVE that word - that has nothing to do with Twitter LOL), and amazingly thankful for all of YOU, my blog readers/friends/encouragers/rear kickers/cheerleaders. I never could have gotten this far without you. (and I'm not gonna make it to the end without ya either - so don't stop now! ;))

Okay - now to get BACK TO WORK :)
