I'm an accidental writer.

True love never forces.

Submission is not about authority and it is not obedience; it is all about relationships of love and respect.

I give you an ability to respond and your response is to be free to love and serve in every situation, and therefore each moment is different and unique and wonderful.

I think that most creative fiction involves the transformational process, whether it is Dickens or Dostoyevsky and the writer in some sense is expressing their own journey through such a wilderness.

Don't forget that in the midst of all your pain and heartache, you are surrounded by beauty, the wonder of creation, art, your music and culture, the sounds of laughter and love, of whispered hopes and celebrations, of new life and transformation, of reconciliation and forgiveness.

God's voice had been reduced to paper, and even that paper had to be moderated and deciphered by the proper authorities and intellect.
