A writer isn't someone who's naturally talented at writing and can create perfect stories. A writer is someone who's bad at writing, struggles to write, and creates terrible stories. Yet they keep writing, keep getting better, and will succeed because of their struggles.

Leaders, if we are not crying out to God for wisdom, let us keep our mouths shut until we do. I had to delete 3 drafts of tweets this AM & go on a walk & get my head on straight. We cannot depend on wise words coming from the WH but God forbid they don’t come from Christ’s house.
