In honor of this day of all things "football," I give you Tim Tebow and his eyes of inspiration.
Philippians 4:13
I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.
My daughter came home yesterday, having watched the Ole Miss game, and said, "they sure showed Phil alot!"
My husband and I looked at her wondering who she was talking about. "Who?" we asked.
"That guy with Phil under his eyes. He played the whole time!"
But in all seriousness, I love that verse. It makes me know that:
I can write.
I can revise.
I can wait.
I can revise again.
And again.
And again.
I will trust.
I will endure.
I will succeed.
Because He is my rock and my strength. And I am a literary athlete, working day in and day out, giving this career 110%. And so are you!
Rock on writer people! This is our year!

Jennie, I have never read Rick Riley? I will google him now :-)
And Gail, of course you can quote me!

I suck at regular athletics, so the thought of being a literary athlete is very appealing. Love it.
Well, you ARE one damn good writer! I loved that post, and I am not saying that just because we are somewhat related! It was suspenseful, humorous, uplifting, and inspirational!
Rock on girl!!Love that!
How 2010 of you. I'm motivated. Well, if I can just get off this couch, shave my legs for the first time in two weeks and get to work where I HAVEN'T been in three.. I'll be totally motivated.
Happy New Year!
I love this post, Katie! "literary athlete" goes great with "writer weightlifting". I don't know if you read that post on my blog, but they do go nicely together. :-)
Happy New year!
Awesome post! That is one of my favorite verses as well!
