I Got the Candle Part!

We all aim to do better in the new year than we did previously. I can’t say that I see much in the way of progress so far, except in one area:

“…her candle goeth not out by night.” Proverbs 31:18 (KJV)

I asked the Lord to help me to stay busy and that’s one prayer that was answered. I have been so busy that I have been working at night – hence I have not even had time to write my posts. So, while I have the candle part right – I feel as if I am failing in other areas.

Since I began writing daily posts in 2009 I have not often reached out to ask for help. I always had an open door if someone wanted to contribute – there have been some over the years, yet none that stuck. I have reached the point when my prayer is that God will send those who have a heart toward encouraging someone in a biblically based Word – about 500 words or less – and wants to share it with others.

We try to stay close to every day situations where we might be strengthened by words straight from scripture. It is not that we don’t have strong opinions on many topics, yet trying to make a point in 500 words is not the easiest thing to do, without offending someone. Our aim is not to offend, but to encourage, to uplift!

So if you’re out there, and don’t already have the candle burning at both ends, respond to this post with your email and we can see if together we can get out a Word that will brighten, uplift, or otherwise make someone’s day!
