Write words with a sparkle. Write words with a smile.
They might go a short way or they might travel a mile.
If the Lord is delighted with all that you do,
Why measure your work by any other view?
Don’t worry over bestseller or covet their flair.
Never fuss over ratings or who’s standing where.
The joy is in knowing your words do their part,
Touching a life with loving truth from your heart.
So pick up your pencil, your keyboard, your pen,
And trust God to guide every sentence again.
When he is your reader, your audience true,
Comparison fades, for he is pleased just with you.
