Wanna Know a Secret ?

Ok , I'll tell ya ! I have always had a "dream" to write a book . A novel that would somhow change the world . As the years have passed that dream has faded into the far recesses of my mind , popping up only occassionally . Well yesterday was one of those "pop up" days . After thinking about this great literary work that I would never pen , I told myself , " Self , it's ok . Writing a bestseller isn't really that important anyway . " It was that moment when God spoke so clearly to me and revealed that indeed I am writing a book , a novel that will change the world . It might not be put onto paper by my hand but it is written on the pages of time by my actions , words and deeds .My "book" will affect all those around me . My husband will read it , my children will read it , so will my family and friends . What I say or do in my "book" will have a profound effect on people in this world . What kind of change will my "book" cause ? Will my children become good parents ? Will my lost loved ones be saved ? Will I lead someone astray because I was a hypocrite ? What kind of language do I use in my "book" . Does it glorify God ? More important , who is the main character in my "book" ? Is it me and mine or is it God and His Son , my Savior Jesus Christ ? Wow ! What a profound revelation God sent my way . It put a whole new spin on things . I am so grateful that as I "write" this great(?) work , I have the best Editor in the business . He always know what scene to delete and which one to add and which direction the characters need to go in . And when I kneel to accept the award (reward) for my life's work I can give credit to whom it's due , I can say "Thank you Lord , I couldn't have done it without you !" ~ Nikki
