The Miraculous Journey of Hadassah's Watchman

First I would say that the rough draft of the first book of Hadassah's Watchman is now finished.  The first book is called First Cry and it can be found on wattpad at the following link:  http://www.wattpad.com/611228-hadassah%27s-watchman-trilogy-first-cry

It began with one single idea, the prologue, I had nothing else, I had no idea where this story would go, in fact I thought it was just a fifteen minute writing excercise.  I remember the day clearly, I was driving to work thinking of my dad as I often do.  A song that he often sang came to my mind "On Your Walls Oh Jerusalem", with the song images flowed through my mind with a vivid clarity, and my imgagination burst.  It was as if God was giving birth to a wonderous idea, in my mind.  That day I got to work about an hour early I think, and I took out a paper and my favorite pen and wrote as if my life depended on it, I felt an urgency that this idea must not be forgotten even if it never goes anywhere.  For many weeks after that nothing else was added this, I thought it was done, no more would come.  But the more ideas followed with the exact same thunderbolt intensity.

Questions were brought to the surface... what if a broken woman would be chosen by a prince?  What if the battle for our souls is greater then we think?  What if there are Watchmen among us, those given the gift...or curse to intercede?  What if some of the Watchmen could fall?  Could there be redemption for one such as he?  Oh... and what if, just what if across the ocean a group of youth, zealous for Christ feels the battle raging and discerns how great the power of prayer is when one or two come together in the name of Jesus Christ?  What if the Holy Spirit trully has the power to unite, casting away all discord, casting away and making the darkest of demons flee?  What if an ultimate sacrifice would need to be given to save many more?  How many hearts would that break?  How many would turn away?  How many would come ever closer to the One who loves them so?

The story still surges through my veins like a tsunami and I can't wait to start the next book called Hadassah's Watchman: An Awakening... but for now I am making myself slow down and be patient as I start the rewriting of the first book and with it the editing.  Will this book ever be printed and published?  Will it make the NY Times best seller list?  Will I ever conduct book signings?  Will these book make a difference in peoples hearts?  I don't know.  I dream, but I don't know.  But I won't stop writing because I know God has a purpose for this book.  God has given me a purpose with this book, He has given me a new reason to hope and that is good, He is awsome to do that.  Ultimately all that matters with this book is that it lifts up and leads another to the only One who loves them so much.  Perphaps the most important thing of this book is to write freedom in their hearts, the freedom only Christ can give.

So if you choose to read it (and I would be honored if you do) I hope it encourages you, and makes you dream God sized dreams (as a special friend told me in a very encouraging message).  Also I would like to thank each and every single one of you who have taken the time to leave a comment on the story, vote on it and share it with others, I don't know if you will ever know how much that means to me... my family and I have had a lot of hard times (as many people do) and through the hardest times, the most hopless of times your comments kept me going..thank you and I pray God blesses you and rewards you for each word you lovingly wrote me.  I love you all.
