What I Mean by "Righting"

I agree it is an odd usage for the word and not one we hear frequently.  And yet it seemed to fit a dual purpose.  It is my opinion that during my childhood and through a part of my adult life I was wronged by a parent.  Deep in my soul I feel a need to write that story out in order to find healing for myself and in the off chance of publishing my work.  More strongly, I feel that in writing my story I will also accomplish a righting of the wrongs that worked against me for so long.  It is a painful and slow process, and one I'm just beginning.  I don't know exactly how it will all work out but I firmly hope that in some way my writing might also help you.

As the verse of Scripture above, the Lord has plans for you and for me, "plans to prosper" us and "plans to give us a hope and a future."  Won't you come along with me?

  1. I do hope writing facilitates your journey of healing! I find words coming out through my fingers reveal what's in my heart and eventually shape it more than I would have thought possible.

  3. Hello!
    I'm Denise, from Brazil and I have followed your blog, the Daughters of Sarah, remember?
    I invite you to access another blog, which is my family.
    We have been together as a family to win all our families to Christ. So we want to encourage with this blog, that all Christians do the same.
    Be part of this army of warriors who are willing to live the gospel, pray and talk about Jesus, His Word and His kingdom to all families. Our families and our brothers around the world need to know and surrender to the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
    "For the love of Christ constrains us."
    Together we are better and stronger and the world know that we are the Lord if we love each other.
    In Jesus, peace!
