I don’t consider myself much of a scientist. My brother loved science and became a science teacher at the age of 50. I hope that inspires some of you who might be thinking you’re too old to do something you always wanted to do but didn’t think you could. He overcame his doubts about whether or not he could do…..
Yesterday, November 1, 2019 I picked up my book Praying Our Way Through Stress, and looked at page 53. I mulled it over for the day, slept on it (not literally) and sorted through my thoughts this morning. The Chapter opens with a reference to something written in Matthew 4: “First Satan attempted to induce doubt (If you are who…..
Restore My Soul by June G Paul
(This song has also been given two other titles: “Break My Will” and “Living Water”)
Break my will, Lord and make it thine Break my will, Lord and fill me With Living Water restore my soul Break my will, Lord and make me whole.
Holy Spirit, come touch me now Holy Spirit, come touch me With Living Water restore my soul Holy Spirit, come touch me now.
Holy Spirit, come bathe me now…..
When I was a young girl I had to take one of my math classes three times. I was embarrassed, was called stupid and afraid I would never get into college. I cried in class one day. My teacher talked with me after class and told me they were proud of my struggle to and desire to learn. That encouragement helped me to persevere and eventually understand the concepts in algebra so that I could pass the course. The experience…..
This is something I am learning well. I have received positive and negative feedback from having published this book. Some people who know me think that I’m being a little ‘self-righteous’ in publishing this book. I never really understand people who think this about me because I know I am not perfect and am in need of the Lord’s strength, grace, love, forgiveness and power – I know I’m a sinner in need of the Lord. This book in no way…..
What can I say? This is an interesting experience for sure. Becoming an author takes concentration, time, effort and a certain amount of courage. In my book I have a chapter titled Fear, Faith and Stress.
All those emotions come into play in the process of becoming an Author. At least they have for me. When I sent my first copy in and waited to hear from Westbow Press I continued to write other things. They have a process for…..
What else do I like to do? Obviously I enjoy writing. What else? I enjoy people watching, observing people and listening to them in a variety of settings. I enjoy the sounds of nature and good music – what sounds good to me might not sound good to another, so that’s up for discussion and discovery. I enjoy flower decorating…..
People like to know something about the author of a book. I’ve always disliked the ‘Tell us a little about yourself.” kind of writing challenges and ‘getting to know you’ question and new small group meeting openings. Tell me/us a little about yourself, who are you, what do you like to do, etc. I enjoy listening to other people…..
That’s a good question that I hadn’t really considered while I was writing it. I could have written (and I have, but they aren’t published – yet). It just seemed like I had to write this book. I guess there are several – the introduction of the book explains one of the reasons. But there is probably more to that. I think I…..
