A Writer's Essential Tools
I am deep into my writing, as my deadline is this Friday, the 15th. I must turn in 15 devotionals for next year's devotional book for the Woman's Missionary Union of Brazil. And yes I AM procrastinating by writing in my blog. BAD GIRL. I have just finished my first devotional, always the hardest. I have, by the way, done all my homework and all my research. My passages, however, are not particularly easy ones to make "devotional". Now that I am in the swing of the style and the number of words I am allowed, I think things will flow more smoothly. I can hope, at least. So you won't hear from me for a few days until I finish this task. You will notice I have all the most modern and essential tools at my fingertips. Most important are the several translations of God's Word that serve as my ultimate source and guide. I do need a few more things, like my computer, to make a go of the writing. And chocolate, of course, is an absolute MUST. Do you have to write anything? I mean, like answer an e-mail or two? Give yourself some brain food. Eat chocolate. (By the way I have also been on a diet of fish to feed my brain power as well - but I tell you I much prefer chocolate).

Hey, just to give you an update. Here it is Wednesday morning and I have finished 6, almost 7 devotionals. Wow! And it is so much fun to delve into God's word and make it real in my life and hopefully in the lives of others as well.
