Reaching the World

Time to pick a new verse to memorize...

I chose Mark 16:15 because I find it encouraging: He said to them, "Go into all the earth and preach the gospel to all creation."

It's a short one, and I confess to feeling a little slackerish about it, but it reminds me that when I take the time to write, whether it's on a blog or a novel, that is what I'm doing. It soothes that feeling of selfish frivolity that pursues me when I take time away from other, seemingly more worthy activities, to hole up in a room by myself and peck away at a keyboard.

This is one way I can reach the world for Christ, and I don't even have to get dressed. Y'all know how I love my flannel pajamas.
