Y’all, I have some insane news to share with you…I’m writing an eBook! Well, a devotional eBook, to be specific…Streams in the Wasteland.
Not so long ago, the Lord placed the idea of creating a devotional on my heart. I’ve experimented with some ideas with friends and family over the last couple of years, but this time I’m sharing my creation with the world! I know, it’s still sinking in for me, too.
I feel like I’ve been a full-on hermit living under a rock for the last three weeks as the eBook writing process is nearing completion. Man, writing a book, y’all…it’s an undertaking. One I sorely underestimated!
Biggest lesson in the devotional writing adventure thus far? Don’t procrastinate…and always plan on it taking longer than you think it will. Yup, hard, painful lessons learned on this first go-round.
When I launched Country Wife Chronicles, I knew I wanted to be transparent and authentic in my story, I wanted God to be able to use whatever I was sharing to touch the hearts of any readers that dropped by the blog. But I had no idea where this journey would lead. I never anticipated sharing a story of endometriosis and infertility on CWC. In this valley of infertility I have found myself reflecting on my dear mentor and friend, Graci Gillming, and her battle with ovarian cancer a couple of years ago. Her story never ceases to inspire me on my hard days. Graci radiated hope in her hardship.
Streams in the Wasteland is a devotional that intertwines two very personal stories of finding hope in the hardship. One story is my own, my very real struggle with infertility. The other, is Graci’s…when Graci was fighting the battle of her life she and her two daughters, Tenise and Christal, shared with loved ones their journey in an online medical journal. But what they shared was more than mere updates on Graci’s condition; they shared their love of God, their contentment and peace in Him, and their hope.
I wrote Streams in the Wasteland to honor Graci’s life and share her story with more women around the world. And I wrote it to share my journey with others struggling with infertility. But I also wrote this devotional to help you find hope in whatever hardships you are experiencing. What hardship in life are you facing right now? What fears are you staring down?
