Writing a memoir is a lot of work—a lot of work!
Because of
that, sometimes it’s easy to get discouraged.
But take heart!
Remind
yourself of all the reasons to keep writing.
You want
to bless your readers in any number of ways—you want to leave a spiritual legacy, you want your story to inspire others in their own lives:
- to never give up, never quit fighting, and always hope
- to make good choices and be trustworthy people of integrity
- to speak up when something’s not right
- to always love, always forgive, and always extend grace
- to grow in their faith
The list
goes on and on.
So: Inspire
your readers to be courageous.
Inspire
them to pray.
Offer them
solutions.
Encourage them
to laugh and love—to love God and others.
Be of good
cheer,
all you
memoir-writers out there!
Remember
the words of Jeff Goins:
“Never,
ever, ever underestimate
the
power your words can have.”
Keep
writing!
God can
use your life and your stories
to help others
and to honor Him!
There you
have it:
your
Tuesday Tidbit.
