Here&#8217;s Lisa:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>When God Creates an Opportunity<\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve learned that when God creates an opportunity for me, or presents a path I\u2019m supposed to walk, it comes as a right place, right time prospect, or subtle suggestions.\u00a0 I\u2019m a published author and I write multicultural romances.\u00a0 I love writing about strong characters drawn together by love, respect and familial ties.\u00a0 I go about learning in a by-the-book manner, and never \u201cwing\u201d it when it comes to information I\u2019m not well-versed on.\u00a0 However, when this opportunity presented itself, I learned the true power of being brave, and just what faith was all about.<\/p>\n<h2>It started with a phone call.<\/h2>\n<p>My agent presented me with an opportunity.\u00a0 She prefaced it with, \u201cI know this is out of your comfort zone, but&#8230;\u201d and asked if I were interested in writing for the new Mornings with Jesus devotional that Guideposts was publishing for 2013.\u00a0 My first response was\u2026Seriously? Me?\u00a0 I pondered if I could even write a devotional,\u00a0and what I would possibly have to say since I wasn\u2019t a Christian fiction author, and not that knowledgeable.\u00a0\u00a0But, like I said earlier, I believe that when we\u2019re called to do something,\u00a0especially out of our comfort zone, it\u2019s for a purpose.<\/p>\n<h2>I asked my husband his opinion.<\/h2>\n<p>He said, \u201cCan you write devotionals?\u201d\u00a0 I replied, \u201cI don\u2019t know, but apparently, I\u2019m supposed to find out.\u201d\u00a0 I was intuitive enough to realize that God guided me toward this project for a reason.\u00a0 I called her back and agreed.<br \/>\nI received a sample format and my deadline.\u00a0 They wanted forty devotionals per author.\u00a0 At first I worried.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019m not well-versed in scriptures\u2026I\u2019m hardly the most religious person I know\u2026what if I made a mess of it?\u201d\u00a0 I decided to turn off the self-doubt and listen.\u00a0 I had to be calm to hear the answers: That not being well versed in scriptures\u00a0would help, not hinder me.\u00a0 To trust that the words would be there when I needed them, my devotionals would be relevant, and would touch who they were supposed to.<\/p>\n<h2>I\u2019d have Divine guidance to help me down my path\u2014it was true.<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Mornings-with-Jesus-2013_FINAL050812.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4740\" alt=\"Mornings with Jesus 2013_FINAL050812\" src=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Mornings-with-Jesus-2013_FINAL050812.jpg\" width=\"1652\" height=\"2476\" srcset=\"https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Mornings-with-Jesus-2013_FINAL050812.jpg 1652w, https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Mornings-with-Jesus-2013_FINAL050812-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Mornings-with-Jesus-2013_FINAL050812-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Mornings-with-Jesus-2013_FINAL050812-980x1468.jpg 980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1652px) 100vw, 1652px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To purchase, click here.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shopguideposts.org\/devotionals-ebooks\/mornings-with-jesus-2013.htmlhttp:\/\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.shopguideposts.org\/devotionals-ebooks\/mornings-with-jesus-2013.html<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Scriptures that Moved Me<\/h2>\n<p>The words just flowed out of me and onto the page.\u00a0 I found scriptures that moved me, and could relate them back to something that occurred in my life, or in someone\u2019s life I knew.\u00a0 Words can\u2019t express how amazing the experience was\u2014my cup runneth over.\u00a0 The most memorable moment was receiving the first fan mail I\u2019ve ever received by U.S. Mail.\u00a0 It was a Thank You card from someone thanking me for writing my devotionals, and to say that I\u2019d done a great job.\u00a0 That what I said resonated in a profound way.<br \/>\nHad I not heeded God\u2019s gentle prompting, I would\u2019ve missed an opportunity to grow and touch readers in need of inspiration.\u00a0 The abundant blessings wouldn\u2019t have occurred had I not been strong enough to step outside of my comfort level\u2014or had faith enough to walk my path.&#8221;&#8211;Lisa<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Thanks, Lisa.
