Making Room for God

February 22, 2009

It’s that time of year again, when we get rid of things that keep us from God. Things that get in the way of our relationship with him. It’s Lent, and I’m ready. GULP!

Ready to make a commitment to giving up something so I can get something better. I’m ready for my flesh to be crucified, it’s getting way to fat and flabby, and I’m ready to deepen my relationship with the Lord.

Yet, I’m also afraid. Afraid of doing the usual “giving us stuff” but not growing closer to the Lord. I’m afraid that when the giving up stuff is over, I’ll revert back to my lazy ways. But despite my fear, I’m still going to do it. I haven’t totally decided what I’m giving up, but I’ll tell you, it’s going to hurt. Because I’m ready for a change!

From the day I received my first diary in the second grade, I've had a passion expressing myself through writing. Later as a journalist and novelist, I realized words, if used powerfully, have the ability to touch, stir, and reach from the depths of one soul to another. Today as a writing and health coach, I inspire others to live their extraordinary life and encourage them to share their unique stories.
