Susan,
I read your article today in iBelieve and wanted to let you know how much you blessed me…you truly are a gifted writer and don’t ever let the enemy tell you otherwise! You were able to succinctly outline the armour of God in a way I have yet to fully understand…until today…God bless you!
Thank you Leslie! You’ve blessed me so much with your words of encouragement. Thank you for your kind words. I praise God for using my offering to help you. Thank You Jesus!
I second Leslie’s comment above! I was looking on here for your article on iBelieve entitled “Ten Strategies to Prevent Satan from Stealing Your Calling.” Wow! That really impacted me. For too long, the enemy has been discouraging me. What you wrote, coupled with a friend’s “raw” push, I am going to forge ahead. God will do with my writing, what He so desires. Thank you for your impactful words.
Thank you! I thank God for using this to help you. Persevere and keep writing. He has asked me before, “would you write if it’s just for Me?” Yes Lord! We give Him what we have and He uses it as He wills.
Soaring with Butterfly Wings
