Scary Close


I am halfway through Donald Miller's, Scary Close.  It is such a great book!  There are many intriguing quotes...here's one...

"So I wrote, I wrote as though God thought my voice mattered. I wrote because I believed a human story was beautiful, no matter how small the human was. I wrote because I didn't make myself, God did. And I wrote like He'd invited me to share my true "self" with the world."

Wow, these words are powerful, beautiful and true for each one of us!

Shortly after reading these words, I thought about replacing the word wrote with the word live then the word love...

So I live, I live as though God thinks my voice matters, I live because I believe a human story is beautiful, no matter how small the human is.  I live because I didn't make myself, God did.  And I live like He's invited me to share my true "self" with the world.

So I love, I love as though God thinks my voice matters, I love because I believe a human story is beautiful, no matter how small the human is.  I love because I didn't make myself, God did.  And I love like He's invited me to share my true "self" with the world.

How do you write, and live and love? 

Thank you Donald Miller for writing this book!!! Thank you God for so very much!!
