There
are times when nothing pulls me in like a hard-hitting quote by a person I
respect and/or admire. There are times when nothing eases the panic and anxiety
of a looming deadline like finding Snoopy hard at work on his Great American Novel, tapping furiously at his typewriter, or pacing atop his dog house in the colorful panels of a Peanuts comic strip. Yeah, I’m pretty flexible like
that…
So, for this month’s
dose of encouragement, I hunted up some gems that I thought
might hit home. Enjoy the journey, friends; blessings on your writing, and your spirits! (PS, I've captioned a few of these with my own reactions - hope you don't mind! I want to hear yours, too, so leave a comment!)

Chase? Above all, can a sin damaged past be released in favor of forgiveness?
