Your lack of Faith isn't in God, dear, your lack of faith is in yourself. You have loads of faith in God - You're asking Him to lead you and guide you. That's faith to me. But you don't have faith in your abilities to get through this and move to the next point in life. <br /><br />Just remember these things:<br /><br />1. You wrote a book and someone actually spent the money to print it! Someone else has faith in you.<br /><br />2. You have a house and electricity and the water is turned on. Your husband is providing those things to you so you can keep writing. Someone else has faith in you.<br /><br />3. I'm commenting on your blog and giving you encouragement because what I have seen of you shows me that you have star potential and you aren't going to quit (I almost bought your book at the Con, but they didn't take credit cards). Someone else has faith in you.<br /><br />Have faith in yourself - you can overcome: you won't get swept away by the current of life. But above all, never, ever, ever give up on your dream. Fight it! Put up those dukes and punch that voice that says 'give up on this silly writing thing'. They always say 95% of all writers don't make it big. That's because they give in to that voice.<br /><br />Never give in - have faith in yourself.DanStrohscheinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11395134167321451908noreply@blogger.com
