For the Love of People

If anyone boasts, "I love God," and goes right on hating his brother or sister, thinking nothing of it, he is a liar. If he won't love the person he can see, how can he love the God he can't see? The command we have from Christ is blunt: Loving God includes loving people. You've got to love both." (1 John 4:20-21 The Message)

On my book-writing journey, I'm following God's roadmap of instructions:

Starting point: 

It's time to write her story. Spend time with Me and do what I tell you to do.........

Point A: 

Make the story a children's book that teaches Biblical truths to help parent bring up kids in the way they should go...........

Point B: 

Cast the books into "deep waters" a.k.a. Deep Sea Publishing.......

Point C: 

For book #3, make it smaller with black and white illustrations to be more affordable for families..........

Point D: 

For book #4, write stories of your own family's adventures and leave your grandkids a legacy.

Point E:

Read to school children and senior adults wherever I open a door.

Point F: 

Give away copies of The Schoolhouse. Yes, for free.

Point G: 

For book #6, your grandgirl is your illustrator...........

Point H: 

For book #7, offer a cash-prize student art competition for the cover art..................

Did you spot that the outstanding landmark beside each and every point on my map isn't book sales or fame or fortune? The object of God's pointed instructions is simply the people He loves.

And the object of this post, beloved, is: whatever we do in word or deed, do all for the glory of God and the love of His people.
