Sunday Morning Peace: New Beginnings!

Remember not the former things,
neither consider things of the old.

Behold, I will do a new thing;
now it shall spring forth;
shall you not know it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43: 18 & 19

Shall not God lead us in the way we should go?
Don't look back.
Always forward, with eyes fixed on the goal God has given us.
It may be a surprise: a new thing,
but surely God will give it.
a way through the doubts and fears,
and blessings (not a RIVER but RIVERS)!

Looking ahead...

My New Year's Wish

All that is beautiful, all that is best--
Joy of activity, calmness of rest,

Health for life's pilgrimage,
Strength for its strife,

Sunshine to brighten the pathway of life.
Courage to trust, tho' the skies be o'ercast.

Hope for the future born out of the past,
Love that is tender and friends who are true;

This is my New Year's wish for you!

Blessings!

Seven Things I Plan to Accomplish

What's in store for me this 2013?
I don't know but I do know I've set a few goals I hope to gain.
Here they are:

1.  Come up with a super marketing plan; something never tried before but guaranteed to sweep my book into the NY Times Best Selling ranks.

If that doesn't work, then come down out of the clouds and work hard at what's been tried and proven.

2.  Come as close to finishing as I possibly can at least two books I'm working on now. It'll take dogged determination. Do I have it?

3. Do all the edits coming up this year in a reasonable but speedy amount of time. A must!

4. Do some serious research on a novel I hope to begin soon. I've been putting this off even though I normally love research. It might help if it was a topic I wanted to study.

5. Check out publishers for our children's books series. Another seemingly endless tunnel. Gotta be done.

6. Improve my blog in looks and content. Since I'm technically challenged this is harder than it looks.

7. Work on increasing my faith in God. Just saying the words doesn't get the job done. Active prayer, Bible reading, and action on my part is required. And sometimes that action is just being quiet and listening.


That's enough for now and quite a list if even half can be reached.

What's your thoughts and goals for this year?
Want to share?

Happy New Year!

I Wish For You . . .


My Wish for You in 2009
May peace break into your house
and may thieves come to steal your debts.

May the pockets of your jeans
become a magnet of $100 bills.

May love stick to your face like Vaseline
and may laughter assault your lips!

May your clothes smell of success like smoking tires
and may happiness slap you across the face
and may your tears be that of joy.

May the problems you had forget your home address!

In simple words . . .
May 2009 be the best year of your life!!!
