I received a sweet comment on a post from a follower. I admire her writing and her words are full of wisdom. I found her through a picture of a beat up Bible.
She doesn’t post very often, but when she does I drink it up. She explains this by saying, “Committing to writing has always been an adventurous discipline for me. Forgive me for not posting as quickly as my experiences occur. I am ever so grateful for the way Life is treating me and faithfully attuned to how God stands in the gaps of my unknowing.”
After seeing her picture, I grabbed my Bible. It has a cover on it for protection, so I knew it wouldn’t look like hers, but the cover has some scars.
My first thought was to take the cover off and it would soon begin to look like hers, but the cover is there for protection from the elements. You used to be able to leave her a comment, but her most recent post has comments disabled. She needed protection from the elements.
She was being bullied in her comment section for talking about God. This is a woman who has no protection on her Bible and it looks ragged. When we put ourselves out there in this world we need some protection, or we begin to look ragged like that bible.
Keep writing my darlings, even if you need to wrap yourself in a cloak of protection.

Reblogged this on Me,Intimately worded and commented:
God whispers ever so gently. I am always impressed when my writing reaches anyone. I fall in love with the power of the written word more so when one shares their impact of what I jumble together. Thank you LetItGoCoach, for forever giving your authentic best. It works! Your work is required.
Please read her blog post of my post: “My Ragged Bible.”

God whispers. Yes ma’am. Now, it’s my turn to cry. Giving our best is all we can do. The more we give our best becomes better.
“Your work is required.” I hope you know this of you too. ❤
