When I lie awake at night, I often feel the Lord speaking to me. As I pray to Him and listen carefully, He prompts me to write down the words He wishes me to share through the gift of writing what He pours into my mind and heart. I dare not ignore His prompt or call for He is my Lord, my Rock, my Savior, my friend indeed, my all and all. Writing these spiritual reflections and poems has helped me in my personal relationship with the Lord. I have gotten closer to Him through meditating on His Holy Word. Every tear I cry makes me stronger and heightens my love for the Lord more each day. His Word is alive in me and through me.
