I’m sure you’re already aware of this, but it is a lot of work to write a book. I told Katie, the IRSM President, that the other day and all she could do was laugh. Actually, she couldn’t stop laughing. She finally responded, “Um, yeah! And you’re the one that wants to do at least one a year!”
I know. I know. I should’ve known what I’ve gotten myself into. And I do. I actually enjoy the research, the prayer, the conversations with women in studies, the interaction with the material, the personal spiritual growth, and the potential ways in which God can use me and my writing to touch others’ lives – that they may deepen their relationships with God and with one another.
But it’s a lot of work! So, please pray for me as I continually seek God’s will and God’s message through the writing of Who Has the Last Word? Cutting through Satan’s Lies with the Truth of God’s Word.
Is there something you’re working on that takes a lot of work, but you know is worth it? Can I pray for you in that as well?

I recently had an image of myself as Dick van Dyke in Mary Poppins. Not the chimney sweep, not the one jumping into paintings, not even the one in the pin striped suit dancing with penguins (although I do enjoy walking like a penguin with my nephew).
No, I imagined myself with a lost and dumb-founded face after attempting to play and sing a song as a one man band.
As a known multi-tasker, I can fall into the trap of wanting to do it all: walk to the beat of the drum, clash the cymbals, blow the trumpet, hit my head against the horn, and also play the harmonica. Or not.
No one can do it on their own. The beauty of a band is that a diverse group of people join together to play a variety of instruments, all directed by a conductor to create a beautiful sound that transmits a message to the audience.
There is very limited, if any, beautiful sound coming out of a one man band and the only message being transmitted is one of chaos.
As I move forward in Iron Rose Sister Ministries, I am working to define the different parts that others can also play to bring together a beautiful sound that transmits God's message to women across the Americas.
Stay tuned!
