Writing is a lot like bleeding -- we're called to pour out our souls. It's not just about us. I'll be sure to follow your writing and look forward to your new bible study.<br /><br />Wendy, thanks for being a giver -- for always looking to build others up and promote other writers.

When I look at my life, I see that I connect with those who are open about their weaknesses and inadequacies. I'm pushing myself to follow their example.
