Wanting to write, I once had a big dream,
“I’ll write by myself. I’ll be quick. I’ll be keen.”
But soon I found out that my plan wasn’t sound—
My words had no sparkle. My joy tumbled down.
I needed some help, just a nudge or a guide—
A mentor to cheer me, to walk by my side.
For writing, you see, isn’t my only chore.
I’m best with help from One who knows more.
I once chased the likes and the claps and the praise,
But that made me stumble in all sorts of ways.
For trends come and go, and the world shifts so fast,
But truth and God’s wisdom are treasures that last.
So now I depend on the Lord when I write,
To guide every word and to help me shine light.
I’m free from the myth of “I’ll do it alone.”
With him in my story, the best seeds are sown.
