Have you ever thought “Why didn’t I follow my dream a long time ago? I wasted my life, now I’m too old to enjoy it.”

Listen to yourself. God has granted you favor and your complaining! The fact is that you were not ready a long time ago. You had to go through training, struggles, and character building. God’s timing is always perfect. Had you done it “a long time ago” you would have failed.

God has invested in you! He has been with you every step of the way. He has cried with you, felt your pain, carried you when you were too tired to go on and loved you when you thought no one else did. He has built your talents, molded your character, and put opportunities in front of you.
You have been strategically placed at this moment in time to be successful. Let him know you appreciate His work to build you when you were unwilling and ungrateful.

Go out and make God see His investment is going to pay off. That you are going to be all He created you to be!

I see God working in my life. Not sure what He is doing. It all started with God inspiring me to write a book “Seasons Once Upon My Innocence”. Then God asked me to write a screenplay from my book “Journey of Innocence Lost”. I am beginning to be recognized for my creative writing in the last few months. God says “Trust me, wait and be patient.” It is hard to believe God could do such great things through you for His kingdom. My heart is jumping in anticipation for what He has coming next. Thanks to all of you who have prayed and been so encouraging to me!

Blessings to you all!

Excerpt from “Seasons Once Upon My Innocence” by Lea Ann Vandygriff

Jake, Randy, and Daniel arrived at Mildred’s house. A portion of her screened-in porch had collapsed around her. Daniel had tried to get her out, but he just wasn’t strong enough alone. Jake said, “Daniel, where are your brothers?”
“Who knows?” Daniel said, clearly irritated. “We gotta get Grandma. We’re running out of time.”
“Relax, Daniel,” Jake said. “We’ll get her. I just wanted to know if they were in the house.”
Daniel said, “Don’t know. Don’t care.”
Randy, Jake, and Daniel all worked together, moving debris gently, not knowing for sure where Mildred was, as she was unconscious somewhere under the rubble.
Then Daniel said. “There! I see her arm over there! She’s not moving.”
Jake said, “Daniel, I need to you calm down.”
Instead, Daniel started moving stuff in a panic. Randy grabbed Daniel and pulled him off the debris, throwing him violently away. Daniel got up and grabbed Randy from behind, trying to pull him down. Randy turned around and punched him in the mouth, knocking him to the ground. Then he grabbed his jacket with both hands, pulled him up, and got in his face.
Daniel shouted, “Dude, calm down!”
“You’re not gonna help your grandma if you cause more stuff to fall on her!”
Jake pulled Daniel loose from Randy’s grip and got between them. “Guys, we have to work together here.” Daniel stood there, stunned at what had just happened. Randy and Jake went back to moving rubble. Jake said, “Daniel, come here. When we hold this up, I want you lock your arms under your grandma’s shoulders and pull her out slowly.”
Daniel just stood there, staring at his unresponsive grandma, oblivious to Jake.
“Daniel!” Jake yelled. “Can you do it? She needs you, boy.”
