When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. (Luke 1:41) We can debate whether life begins at conception or at birth, but the sanctity of human life is precious regardless the age of the human, in my opinion. Elizabeth was about 6 months pregnant with John, yet John leaped for joy to recognize the baby Jesus in Mary’s womb. We can argue that this is just a story but the story is told in the written and spoken word every year during Christmas. What if we shut down the debate and blame all our unrest in the world to words as the main source of conflict? What if we let our earthly principalities influence us so much that it becomes a crime to use words on the grounds that it may offend another? This may be where we are headed if not balanced with the gifts of individual beliefs. Is it possible to live in harmony and maintain our individual beliefs? Yes, I believe.
I am not sure exactly when I decided to expand from a weekly blog to a full scale book. It was sometime in the fall of 2017, as I recall. The manuscript was submitted to the publisher on April 16, 2018. I approved the book release on October 19th and was available on Amazon for purchase by November 28th. In a few more weeks the book will be available on digital media then a press release will be issued by “Page Publisher” out of New York. The New Year will be an exciting new adventure for sure. Peace to you all.
I believe we are given new opportunities as long as we are prepared to receive. I also believe that even after we have expired from this world, we can still make an impact on those left behind. As long as we open our souls, we may be given an opportunity to give more than receive. Since September 21st, 2015, I have been writing blogs related to travels around the world, teaching, preaching and general stuff that came out of the brain of T. That’s me.
We never know where our life’s journey will take us. I did not anticipate becoming a blogger after my Engineering career finished. I think my ministry efforts influenced my decision to write. I certainly did not anticipate being an Author. Life is full of possibilities if we are willing to open our souls to be hear His calling. This is the back page blurb to get a hint of the story inside my first book. Enjoy!
