A few months ago I entered my manuscript, Silent Resolve and the God Who Let Me Down, in the 2011 Women of Faith Writing Contest. Yesterday, I received word that my work was chosen as one of thirty finalists from out of more than 600 writers whose manuscript was reviewed by a team of judges.
The three top winners will be announced on March 31, 2012.
I am overjoyed to be able to share my story with all of you. The apostle Paul writes that as we are comforted in our own suffering, we are “able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” (1 Corinthians 1:4) My hope is that through the struggle and resolution within the pages of my manuscript, many will find the peace that only God can bring.
Look for it. The story unfolds spring 2012….
