God Spoke, I Wrote - Scott, Marlene

. .

Résumé :
It was at this new church, Lakeside Outreach Ministries that my life really took a turn. I had so many times since my son passed, kept asking God the question, why? I found my answer here. I met so many wonderful people who had so much pain and grief and illnesses in their lives, but, they never lost their faith in God. I began to write about my Pastor, Pastor Kenny Griffin and his church and his people, and when I did, I seen their pain, I felt their suffering. I cannot explain, but, people, even strangers began asking me to write about their loved one who had departed, and then come back to tell me how much the poem had meant to them. This had become my calling, this is what God wanted me to do, and as it became more and more widespread, my involvement with Jesus became more and more, the words were coming so fast, the insight I was seeing, only God knew what was happening to me. I would be nothing, nor would there be any written poetry without God, for when I sit down to write, I say a prayer to God, saying, God, please give me the words to write, and He always would. That is why I call my book of poetry, GOD SPOKE/I WROTE.

Biographie:
3 sons and a daughter. Now, I have 9 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.We moved a lot, met many wonderful people, and learned a lot. I learned we are all looking for the same thing, Love/Peace/Understanding/Friendship. The poems I wrote were from my heart. I want them to go on and on. God says even after death, life goes on.I felt others' pain, yes, and mine. This was my therapy. I pray if, in some way, you find yourself in one of my poems that they will in some way touch you too.Twenty (20) years later, we still live on the Campground, go to the same church. This is my next step down that road, but God willing, we will be here for a few more years. This is my home, my next and the last step will be when God calls me to step into His Heavenly Home....
