My Book Blog Series: Tomorrow Is Not Promised (Book 1)
January 25
I have been showing up for my own blog. Gonna do this everyday for a year. I know it’s a great task, but it is something I MUST do. I’m not sure exactly why yet but I just feel like I need to do this. I am doing this for myself. I’m doing this for the Lord and doing this for the reader. I am doing it for my writing career and doing it by faith.
I wanted to do something for those of you that are new to my blog and to me, so that you might get to know me. No better way than through my books. I am an author of 5 books! (Cue the music and balloons)
That may not seem like a lot of books but it is a wonderful gift to the world from me. I have loved words and books my whole life. I have wanted to be an author for a very long time.
With all that said, I am doing a five-series blog on the 5 books I have written. One blog and video a day for 5 days on each book telling you why I wrote the book and a little about each book. Okay, so I’m trying to sell myself. Hey this is my blog. I can do what I want right? LOL… no seriously.
I’m doing this because the Lord said to. He said, “Tell the people about your books and why you wrote them and where the ideas came from for them, it will give Me glory.” So here goes…..
Tomorrow Is Not Promised: A Personal Journey of Total Submission to Holy Spirit is my first book. This is actually a miracle book. Miracle? Because this book came to me in a visitation from the Lord on October 12, 1990. I was at work at Fireman’s Fund Insurance Co in Omaha, NE and around lunch time when the work area was empty the Holy Spirit visited me at my desk.
He said to me “You are going to write a book.”
I said, “what am I going to call it?”
Holy Spirit said, “You are going to call it Tomorrow is Not Promised and you are to write only what I tell you to write in books.”
Wow!!!! From that second on all I ever thought about was writing books.. all the time even in my sleep.
This book took me 26 years to write. I lived through a lot of hell to write a out the lessons God takes you through when you go through a tragedy. I went through a horrible divorce I didn’t want and pain and depression and other junk (too much to mention here) and wrote the book. You will love how it reads. Like a lifetime movie people tell me.
You learn about the Holy Spirit and hear His voice as you read. You will see pain and the glory of God. Get a copy and give it to someone else you know is hurting in a tragedy because you will see how God helps you, heals you, holds you and loves you. I learned from my pain that He is a good Father and He loves me. I learned submission and obedience to the highest degree from my trials and you will too.
This book is my heart and will change you from the inside out. It tells the story of brokenness and a woman rising up to do the will of God. I saw the word of God come to pass with this book and it unlocked all the other 200+ books I want to write. Enjoy. Get your copy here on my Amazon link.
God bless you.
