Thanks so much for these, I needed a little “boost” this morning! Love the “pen of a ready writer” (or, in our case, keyboard.”

You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on your hearts, to be known and read by all men; and you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. 2 Co 3:2-3

Thank God for diverse gifts – I’m mentally switching the Psalm to “..my pen is the tongue of a skillful speaker.” I struggle to string two coherent words together when speaking out loud, but God willing and with much prayer, the words I write may touch someone for Him.

This is a great thought… we often feel just like Moses, who worried that he was “slow of tongue” and fear that we won’t know the right thing to say, but if we just let the Lord lead us He can speak through us in powerful ways. I love writers who allow His still, small voice to shine through their work!
