Much grace received and much grace to share

[Lanie]

Hello there!

I was searching for a site that may accomodate a Christian writer wanna be like me. Then I stumbled on this site. I know that I have nothing yet to prove but I'll do my best in God's grace.

The only thing that had really helped me gather my guts to join the group was the fact of the saving grace of God. My gratefulness abounds to God who is the author of all wisdom and knowledge to the extent that I believe I can share both His goodness and severity.

His goodness has made me sing for joy and mutter some praises in my lips and mind. Those that stays in the mind are those that I wish to share and write. On the other hand, the knowledge of His severity has made me more thankful because it has developed in me the "fear of God" which is like a fence that guards me from sinning.

I know it was not I who first who draw near unto Him but it was He who callled me out of darkness into his wonderful light. I am supposed to be spiritually dead as "all men have sinned and fall short of the glory of God' (Roman 3:23). Instead, He has chosen me to be part of His Church.

Now, shall I be continually silent? May God open doors for me so I can tell of His grace and goodness through something that I always do... writing.

I hope there is a room for me here.

My best regards to all!

Welcome Lanie,
You just need to be a little more excited about the Lord :D Teasing, Lanie. It's great to meet you and have you with us. I know you'll enjoy it here. There are some great people and some great writers here. Settle back, relax, and above all :WRITE!

May I suggest that you read the guidelines first. I neglected to do that when I joined, and I had some problems with posting. If I had read the guidelines, I would have understood why. Once you find out how it all works fairly, it's a superb site.

So, enjoy!
If I can be of assistance, please feel free to ask.

:) Hi Lanie! I too am new, having just joined yesterday & know what you mean about being a bit hesitant to jump in. I am in the final stages of my first serious attempt at getting something published, and feel I have much to learn. This group has a lot to share & I have benefited already. Read a lot of the old posts, go to the various forums & read those too, there are excellent suggestions and helpful web site links scattered through-out. God bless, Miralee (sea star)
