For months now I've felt a "calling" to write a book. This seems like an absurd idea and a huge undertaking! Now this book may end up being just for me - a kind of cathartic thing to do. But a part of me feels I'd like to try and get it published because I think my journey in the last 4 years especially could help other struggling Christians and it would ultimately have to bring glory to God - for delivering me through an extremely dark time in my life. It was a dark night of my senses, heart, spirit - my entire being in darkness, but by the grace of God I remained faithful to God through it. I know there are a million books probably similar, however I feel this strong pull to write it out. Maybe, just maybe this would be a way to help fund a mission trip and help the poor children! Any thoughts on this Pals? Pilgrim David - any sage advice having been in ministry for years?

Dear Julie, Little Big Missionary,
I think your idea is great.
Nobody has made exact the same experiences that you have. You are a unique trooper.
I think writing wil both be a blessing to yourself, realyy detecting how wonderful God has stood by you, even when everything around you felt dark. Also that there was a blessed way out from the darkness where you were led.
I'm so looking forward to your project becoming a reality.
Writing may be tough too. to confront all your trials once more is not an easy task.
As you say, there sar som many needing help and guidance.
It would be great if you could help just a few.
Good luck as you are moving forward with God.
From Felisol
Go 4 it! :)
