This week I have a two part series for The Journey. Today is part one of The Journey with Kathleen E. Kovach. Please welcome her as she answers the question: How have you seen God work in your writing journey? I have told stories all my life. Before I could form letters, I would chatter in the backseat of the family car, spinning yarns that would make my older sister roll her eyes and declare, “Mom! Make her stop!” Once I learned how to write, my stories filled notebooks. Psalm 139:13 says … [Read more...]

Please welcome this weeks guest Bonnie Engstrom for The Journey. She answers the question: How have you seen God work in your writing journey? Wow, huge question. How did God influence my writing journey? It started out with a salad. A little background: I had been an empty nester for several years and spent a lot of time on my computer.

The Journey with Lori-Ann Whyte
Please welcome this weeks guest Lori-Ann White for The Journey. She answers the question: How have you seen God work in your writing journey?

God’s many blessings
As I sit here and go through my emails this fine evening as well as critiquing some of my fellow writer's works in progress, I think about how much I truly love to write. I am not one of those people who felt called to write at the tender age of seven years old and then knew throughout their life this is what they wanted to do. In fact, through high school English was so hard for me that it never even crossed my mind. However, it's amazing when God has other plans for your life. His plans … [Read more...]
What does it mean to nurture?
When God created women, He knew well beforehand that they would become mothers. I have no doubt in my mind He had a long list of what a mother’s qualities and characteristics not only would be but needed to be. Those included loving and show unconditional love, compassionate, friendly, unselfish, kind, patience, teaching their children right and wrong as well as God and how Jesus died on the cross. For obvious reasons, Jesus dying on the cross is number one as we need to do all we can as … [Read more...]

A Mother’s Love
A mother's love is a very beautiful emotion and something so incredibly special. I was just thinking last night how every person in the world living and breathing today has a mother and father somewhere whether they are alive or dead. However, not everyone has a child or ever will. It is a very special bond between parent and child. It is different for a mother with her children and a father with his children. God intended it this way for a reason. I know when it comes to our daughter that … [Read more...]
Approaching 11 months…
We are now approaching eleven months that Mari's been gone. June 16 will be exactly eleven months. Whether we want it to or not, time just continues to carry on. I was going through this site a little while ago and realized that I'd not posted anything new since Mother's day. It's been hard this last month and I know as the day approaches the one year mark it'll continue to get harder. Then I was reading the comment that someone wrote anonymously. What the person said was basically that I … [Read more...]
