Another section of the Shafts

REFLECTIONS OF LIFE. prose and prayer.

I have a website I have always enjoyed working on. Called Silverfire it was where I have proses and prayers reflecting various life experiences. Reluctantly I will close this site in 2024 but I have collected the entries and now have made a bdeautiful illustrated book. Hopefully, if God supplies it will be ptint in 2024.

The life Journey Continues

Since my memoir has become a reality I find my life is journeying forward at a rapid pace. With gratitude for where He led me in my past. With Him I must press forward hoping and believing for great possibilities ahead. Reading back Shafts myself I am so thankful for its completion and my prayer continues that my journey may encourage others to never stop searching for answers to the question. WHO IS GOD? In His Fullness of Divinity!!!!!!!

Changes prompt improvements

The notification of the closure of a website promoting my memoir SHAFTS of Gold has ignited in me a new desire to make this WordPress site a living and hopefully better tool in appreciation of my past journeyings and my future HOPE.

May we all find JOY in our past through all the memories of joy and tears but keep travelling onwards praising God and holding steadfastly to the ONE who came to save our souls.

Stories from the magic bear collection

These shelves are a new addition in 2021 to our home. The stories of the teddy bears in our home on the hill began long before these bears arrived in 2001 and this journey is now a final life goal so that a beautiful book for children can be brought to fruition. It is a difficult goal to achieve but if in the will of GOD it will like Shafts of Gold become a reality, I write because He inspires even through and in these stories.

This is my Christ-Life

When my daughter encouraged me before her early death that I should write my life story about the incredible events that sometimes impacted my life, I doubted I could.

This story is my search from childhood to find God in the midst of the changing sociatal swirls of life. Shafts of Gold is therefore dedicated to Alison with thanks to Almighty God for giving me the ability to put it into words.

New Vision

From the past a new project and heart journey is emerging. It began a long time ago when Pete first flew into my writing life as a magic teddy in my home. Now since my Memoir Shafts of Gold has become a reality something unexpected has occurred.

on the book is a link to http://www.golden-rains.com where through the years I wrote of the fullness of my Christ-life and the fiction and wonder of a childlike aspect of joy there. A group of younger folk began to read my stories of the magic bears and I have been challenged to produce a full colour children’s book incorporating All the stories. It is a wonderful goal to keep this aging one travelling. However to have it professionally produced will entail a big financial as well as creative endeavour from me. $3,000 has been a wonderful offer for this to be a stunning addition to my other works. I have a dream again for this book not as material gain or to focus on me as a writer but once again to highlight the God who is L ord of ALL THINGS. I dream of being able to give books to children’s hospitals and to bequeath as my legacy the bears in the stories to a Children’s Home.

In the NEW white cupboards in which they stand and a book they would not be unappreciated when I am gone and not just viewed as ‘some old teddy bears’.

I value any comments as I embark on a new journey yet complimenting my Shafts of GOLd life story and thanking all including my awesome Saviour who continues to inspire my life.

1st November, 2022

What next? I am attempting to really improve this site but I think I will have to go on maybe an online training program. Feeling A little daunted. Perhaps I should just go with what I have although I feel this site is a bit Higgledly piggedlty. Are you visiting Ok? I would value feedback/and or advice. I have had a couple of requests about having an add on payment option so I could provide personally signed books at a good price including postage. Value any advice please. Blessings and Love.

Learning New Skills

Learning to dance. Not my dog but little Char-Lee does the same. I have been reading some information that is inspiring me that ongoing learning enhances life at any age. This latest writing endeavour Shafts of Gold is teaching me about not being hesitant about promotion of my faith or my writing. This book I pray can do both.
