God: King of Man and Character Development *change my mind.*

Verse of the Day: John 14:14

As an author and a christian, it is considered controversial to discuss the conflict of interests as it applies to our written work. "Is it biblical?", "Is it in good standing with the word?", "Can this be seen as an appropriate piece for me to write?" Now I do believe that you can be an avid believer of Christ and your work will find a way to reflect upon just that, if it be through inspiration of a certain gospel or more direct and biblical based. What I mean is: YOU are a character in HIS story, he has developed you and for whom you will create because all things done in goodness and light are inspired of him to manifest through you! Isn't that encouraging, takes a bit of clunk out of your ink?

Just imagine how harmonious his pen must be to write without revision of our entire lives, the way in which we will grow and who we will grow to become, that counts double in our maturity as one of his authors. Just think, we are never the same person twice, As Alice quoted in "Alice in Wonderland"; "I knew who I was this morning, but I've changed a few times since then." What is so beautiful and profound about that is that we enjoy the experience of being a human, crafted by his own divine hands and to be recognized among all that he made, his favorite creations. With that in mind, think of the most dynamic and powerful of literary characters and stories ever written, they were given to man from God. You'll see him in many forms, in old age battles of goods and evils, in tales of triumph against great odds, you'll see in the redemption of a lost soul when hope is long forgotten. I'm aware of the squinted eyes and looks of skeptics when I say that just because a book isn't classified under a religious text doesn't make it harmful to read or any less great than those that are. God is not religion, he is life, light, beauty and the heart of creation himself and upon man he granted many gifts, for some it was the way of the pen and ink through which the Holy Bible was written, to portray his mighty, his grace, his peace, and his almighty power.

When you write, ask yourself: to whom and for do I write and why? with your spiritual conscious clear, write. When you read, be able to discern the messages and motives of the writer. Understand that just as Bible who's focal message of love has be vastly preached upon also speaks of war, greed, betrayal, false accusers, gluttony, great evils and great heroes, there are these things to be written of you to share with the world. Your story is yet to end until the last ink drops.

Your strengths and flaws are no mistake, you are not to be edited nor should you be afraid of who you are in his eyes. As writers it is our sacred duty to acknowledge the beauties and horrors of written text through or inspirations given of him. To create is our DNA, a perfect mirror of God's own genius.

"For the love of life and literature, stay prayerful, stay positive and write on."
