 The faith of a single mom. . . This single mom is a few years older, 6 to be exact, and I go by the name Grammy these days. I have been dusting off my blog, pulling back the curtains to let in a little light and opening the windows for some new, fresh thoughts to come in. I'm excited to continue my writing adventure. 

While visiting the Magnolia shops recently, I picked up the book, "The Artist's Way". It looked familiar and I was drawn to it as if to an old friend I hadn't met before. I bought it and took it home with me. As I began reading the first chapters and doing the exercises and assignments she suggests, I realized how much I have missed writing. At the same time, I began to see posts by Hope*Writers.  I had seen a few before and I liked the sound of the name and idea behind it. This time I knew I was ready to dig deeper and see what message God might be sending. I have been so inspired and motivated and have found a renewed  joy in my writing. 

I knew I was looking for refreshment and renewal this summer, but just never thought it would look like this! I love how God brings His message to us from so many different sources and when they all come together everything becomes so clear as if we've known it all along. Maybe we have! I'll be following some new blogs I've seen lately by other Hope*Writer members. It's good to know we're all on this journey together. 

From the morning pages to my blog, it feels good to be writing again! I love the flow of words and the knowledge that God has given me this love for words. Praying they can be a blessing to others.
