Have You Invited God into Your Writing?

by Tammy Karasek @TickledPinkTam

Happy Resurrection Day! As believers all over the world celebrate the Risen Jesus, I have a question specifically for you, writers. When you sit down to write, do you ask God to guide your thoughts and words as you begin—or do you write, then ask Him to bless your work?

Years ago, a fellow writer shared with our writing group some interesting facts she’d come across in a recently read book. Often our devotions or book reports shared in our meetings stick with me for a few days as I keep going over them in my mind. But this time, something that was shared has impacted me greatly. It’s often brought to mind to this day.
