I have been invited by an agent to do a proposal for a series of books on hope. That is big news in itself, but it isn’t a done deal. I have to write a proposal that will knock her socks off, and want her to become your agent. I am in the process of putting that together, and it isn’t an easy job. I think there may be a few thousand re-writes to get it the way I think is presentable. Wish me luck, and I will update you on the progress, and the outcome.

As we approach the holidays-it is only 41 days until Christmas-we have thoughts of hope and love.

There are those who feel the opposite during this time. Some feel deep depression, and hopelessness.

How could this happen?

I have one example of a friend who just lost his wife recently, and will face the holidays without his wife for the first time. There are those who have lost their jobs, and can’t see a very bright Christmas coming for their children as far as getting them gifts.

I could go on with other examples, but you get the picture. What can we do to help?

My friend has had many families from the church invite him to come to their homes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. He is prayed for by many prayer warriors.

For those who don’t have a rosy Christmas coming because of a loss of their jobs, you can send gifts to their home without letting them know who did it, and brighten up their look on life.

Think about these things as we approach the holidays. Think, “What would Jesus do to help these people? Think, what can you do to help these people? Then just do it.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are never unloved.

And above all..never,ever, give up!

Some people feel there is no hope. There are those who have lost their jobs. There are others who have lost a loved one, or have some bad news from their doctor. Where is the hope there?

I have been in the deep muck and more wondering the same things. I have been at the corner of despair and hopelessness.

I almost gave up myself. I was sitting in my Ford Explorer and thinking of suicide. It was at that point that I cried out to God that I couldn’t take it anymore. God heard my cries and gave me a calmness I hadn’t felt in  months. He lifted me out of that muck and mire, and give me direction to write my book, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.”

You can have the same thing happen to you. Never let the scams of Satan sway your thinking into feeling that all is lost. God is always just a prayer away. My prayer was answer right on the spot.

Sometimes His timing isn’t that fast. We often don’t get a answer right away. God’s timing is perfect, however. He knows when the right time is for us.

Remember:

You are never alone.

You are never forsaken.

You are  never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!

It is very exciting to hear of the successes of other writers.

Does that statement seem odd to you? Should we be wanting the “competition,” to do well?

The answer is, of course we should. Each writer is on their own mission. They have their own genre that they are pursuing.

Many times their success is in a genre that is totally different from yours, and wouldn’t affect your sales.

Even if they are writing the same exact genre and are a huge success, don’t you think other people will want to read more books that are in that genre?

The bottom line is that success is needed in the publishing world. We need to have many  authors become well known. We need to have many genre’s be successful.

Why does it always have to be such a rough road for a Christians after they accept Christ into their life? Granted, not all Christians have problems, but many do, and they  wonder why God would allow it once they have come into the fold.

God never promised us a rose garden once we start living a Christian life. He sometimes allows the storms to come, like what is happening n the east coast of the United States right now. He allows them but He also helps calm the storms.

We will face persecution and hard times as Christians. I see it as the least I can do for our Lord who went through so many storms, pain and agony for me.

Remember:

You are not alone.

You are not forsaken.

You are not unloved.

And above all… Never, ever, give up!
