High school holds many memories for me. It was the cutting edge of laptops and word processors, which, for me, meant late nights procrastinating on papers I had to write.
One such night, deadline looming, the electricity went out right as I was productively cranking out the paper due the next day.
I knew that "the electricity went out" would rate right up there with "the dog ate my homework" for acceptable excuses to give my teacher.
So, we did what any teenager of the 90s might have done... I wrote my paper on a laptop by candlelight, praying the battery would last long enough to finish and that I'd have electricity for the printer in the morning.
I don't remember what I got on the paper, but I do remember my frustration about losing electricity and not wanting to lose the flow of my writing.
This picture holds a lot of humor for me, but it is also representative of what next week will be for me... There should be electricity at the cabin, but there is also a wood-burning stove by which I will sit and pray that I can spend hours in the concentrated flow of writing, praying, and allowing God to speak to and through me.

Please forgive my occasional absence from blogging world over the past ten days. After putting over 1800 miles on a rental car, I am glad to be home, but technology issues prevented me from keeping in touch with you as I have been through daily blogging.
Starting on Sunday, I will be even more out of pocket and disconnected from the world. I covet your prayers. I will be taking a technology fast of sorts while I spend 5 days at a cabin in the mountains for concentrated prayer and writing time for the 2nd book. Some have teased that I won’t be able to survive 5 hours much less 5 days without my phone (no cell service) or internet. I trust that God will fill those empty spaces and humble me through the recognition of how great He is.
The 2nd book is called Who has the last Word? Cutting through Satan’s lies with the Truth of God’s Word. Any lies you know that need cutting through? I’d love your input and appreciate your prayers!
