Mid Afternoon Meditation 11-10-19
Arrogant foes are attacking me, O God;
ruthless people are trying to kill me—
they have no regard for you.
15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,
slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.
16 Turn to me and have mercy on me;
show your strength in behalf of your servant;
save me, because I serve you
just as my mother did.
17 Give me a sign of your goodness,
that my enemies may see it and be put to shame,
for you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me. Psalm 86:14-17
What is the power of a mother in a godly man’s life?

NaNoWriMo 2019 Go Us!
I am still plowing my way through NaNoWriMo 2019. I am still engaging in the work. Go me!
Today in the midst of my daily reading about writing and in the midst of rereading my manuscript I am meditating on the importance of my voice in the community…the conversation I bring to the table. I have worked through the manuscript of Pork Chops With the Sentinels Of Azatan one more time. Taking notes as I go and thinking about the connection of scenes within the book and the progression of characters throughout the story, I find myself asking:
“Will this story create conversations of value?”
“Will this book make people think?”
“Will it cause people to disagree?”
“Will it cause anyone to change?”
My sister is in her last performance tonight of the play “Seven”. I saw the piece last night. It was good. I disagreed with many things in the play. It made me angry for the plight of women around the globe. It made me want to have a conversation about….well, …something bigger than me.
That is what I want from my book. I want to engage as well as entertain. I want to start a conversation that will go farther than….well,… me.
We are still plowing our way through NaNoWriMo 2019. By reading this you are still engaging in the work. Go us!

Share Your World 11-4-2019
Here I am once again SHARING MY WORLD with Melanie from Sparksfromacombustiblemind.com
Here are Melanie’s weekly questions and my answers.
When you have finished reading my responses hop on over to Melanie’s site and read her other contributors.
- What is the meaning of true love? The true meaning? I am not sure about that but I am sure of the definition. “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 I suppose what that means is that love is nigh unto impossible without God’s help. Maybe the meaning of love is to drive us to God so that we can really find out what it means.
- Do acts of kindness have a motive? Yes. The benefit of the recipient is the motive.
- If we live in a civilized world why do we see so many distinctions between rich and poor? Because even the civilized world is fallen and can’t get itself up.
- Do we love ourselves more in the virtual world than in the real world? Wow! I don’t even know what that means. Am I different in the virtual world than in the real world? I try not to be so the me I love in the real world is the me I love in the virtual world. I think anything else would be unhealthy.
Gratitude Question:
Are you grateful?
I am so grateful for many things in my life. I have had my trials but over all I am blessed beyond measure!
