I really know where you're coming from,...Rose, <br />I really know where you're coming from, believe me!!!<br />How I've grappled with the whole issue you've mentioned. Just the other day my hubby mentioned that we authors look to Koorong and Word to affirm us while they're struggling and looking for affirmation themselves. Crazy, hey?<br />I'm pleased that this post struck a chord with you too :)Paula Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02079952414990463270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131907587674600113.post-1123861624182355272011-12-20T14:43:22.515+11:002011-12-20T14:43:22.515+11:00Paula, this is not only wise - it really speaks to...Paula, this is not only wise - it really speaks to me. I was doing the look up Koorong thing myself this week, and started to feel really discouraged. All this angst from a book that has only been released 6 weeks. The Lord has given me a reality check and now confirmed it with your blog. I had the exact same conclusion regarding the King David census issue a few months ago. - Oh - but I heard the lesson and prayed thankfully that my heart was in the right place. I look back now and realise what a creeping evil doubt, ego, and self importance is. Thankfully the Lord gives gentle rebuke and disciplines those he loves. <br />I tell you what though - isn't it hard when the world is all about self-promotion. As authors we have to get out there - sell the book, sell ourselves, do the work. Thank goodness for the balance of faith that stops me from turning into a raving loon - that's all I can say.Rose Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00916783669139743112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131907587674600113.post-57114344259694257652011-12-19T18:43:02.283+11:002011-12-19T18:43:02.283+11:00Thanks, Jodi and Penny, for your comments.
