A lot of people ask me how I come up with the words I write. Considering my situation, I know I can seem helpless. A year ago, Even I felt helpless without a purpose. But, I didn't give up on my faith or my trust in God, and He didn't give up on me. In truth, it isn't my word. It's God's word. I only spread it.
I wasn't in tune with His word, and I just needed to find the right station He was broadcasting on. My mind was trying too hard, and seemed to be drowning out what was in my heart. Once I tuned out the static, It became clear I have purpose. And the way this blog, the way my ministry has turned out, testifies to that fact. God does not speak in a literal sense, not as actual words, but as subtle thoughts and signs and a nudge in the right direction. It just isn't something that can be explained to those without faith. Because only through faith, will people hear His word. I wake up in the night with one central thought. I can feel something isn't quite right and a word or phrase pops out at me, A news headline maybe. Or my daily routine brings me across an opportunity that is just too perfect to be a simple coincidence. These things happen and I just know the Lord had his hand on me, inspiring me in ways that will inspire other people. It isn't something to be explained with words. Through spreading the word of God and the sacrifice of Jesus, you spread all that is good in this world. When people are exposed to God and see the joy He brings, their faith grows. And through faith, God speaks.
