One of the hardest writing tasks is trying to write a GOOD rhyming poem (or song). To avoid twee, forced syntax and cliche, but still stick to metre and rhyme requires much scribbling, slashing, polishing... Success is rare but rewarding. #amwriting#poetry#rhyme

"When our visions of kingdom seem to clash with those of other kingdom seekers, we need to seek harder ... There may be a lifetime of disagreement, but we pray we will still seek, still love, still embody God's grace." @lucymills#UndividedHeart p138 #kingdom#disagreement
"Creation gives us tasters of its creator. Do we dismiss that revelation, shaming God's name by how we treat what God has made? If we fritter away the good things of this creation, treating them as valueless, we're not being good stewards..." 1/2 @lucymills#UndividedHeart p133
"Our work can seem long-winded ... but God sees all our efforts for him and values them. The fruit may not be the colour or taste we expect, but if God provides the growth, we know that it will be far better than anything we could imagine." @lucymills#UndividedHeart p119
"Shallow motivators don't stand up in moments of struggles and suffering. .. we risk being uprooted and left without nourishment. The seasons change; the scorching sun bears down on our waterless state, or the frost of winter creeps in upon our lives." #UndividedHeart p103
"We hear a lot about 'incentives' - especially in the working world... What does this mean for us at a soul-deep level? And what happens when we do things only for rewards - a kind of surface obedience, a conditional response in a tick-box world?" @lucymills#UndividedHeart p100
