Pausing With God presents...The Courage Of A Queen

courage_of_queen_title

Though I have watched the movie, "One Night With The King" many times, it never gets old.  This movie portrays the life of the young Jewish girl, Hadassah.  Due to circumstances beyond her control she was selected to become Esther, the Queen of Persia.

The full account can be read in the Book of Esther in the Bible.  This story reminds me of us, yes; you and me. …

Round 1 of Edits Finished!

Yeah baby, yeah, woo hoo! Phew. I’ve just finished my first round of edits, and I’ve sent them back to my editor. Today it only took me 10 hours to finish. But it has been an intense four days of it. A total of 47 1/2 hours worth of editing. Put like that it doesn’t sound a lot though. But the first day I was at them for 14 1/2 hours, the second day 12 hours, the third 11 hours and finally today the final day 10 hours. So it’s been a pretty intense four days. Ah well round 1 of edits…

Courage

I tend to think of the Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz when I see this word. It is all he wanted. He thought he could rule the jungle but lacked the nerve. He thought he didn't have that inner strength to face the fears around him.

Fear. I have seen this word as an acronym. F.E.A.R. False Evidence Against Reality.

Basically, what scenario you think might happen,…

What did country singer Lynn Anderson Teach me?

You're going to get a laugh out of this. It wasn't funny to me at the time, but now . . .

 

Back in the day when I was writing and promoting my songs to various artists, I had a chance to preview some of my songs to country singer Lynn Anderson (Rose Garden). She was gracious enough to take my cassette player/recorder to her bus to listen to them. Good deal, huh?…

Let's Get (Meta) Physical

psychic

What do belly dancers, ghost hunters, tarot cards, and crystal from Brazil all have in common? They and much more were seen at the 25th Annual Metaphysical Fair (commonly known as the Psychic Fair) held last weekend at the Iowa State Fairgrounds.

This annual events brought over 80 vendors and speakers. If you're a true believer, an open-minded skeptic like me, or just curious, this…

JET Blog...A Reflection on CNN's Special on the Sixties!

I was asked to choose a quote from my first novel, A Brownstone in Brooklyn, to reflect on the unpredictable nature of life. How things are never the same and human beings have to adjust to life’s changing events.  A Brownstone in Brooklyn is about growing up in the turbulent sixties, one of the most event filled decades in Black-American history.…

Adult Truth #14

#14I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.”

What is needed is a phone that will list the name of the person who's calling even if you don't have that person as a contact. So much easier to avoid sales people or telemarketers. I still get calls from them every once in awhile.

This truth reminded…

One has to be pretty darn good to be 'scary'.) and I thought about some of the lessons or truisms to be learned from these movies. I posted some of them on Facebook but later I wrote them down to post them on my blog. Plus, this would be a good…
