Well, I know we are all busy. I have been overwhelmed the first six months of this year, but it looks like things are lightening up somewhat in the near future.

I’m off to Family Camp this week, so likely little posting until next week.

I wrote a song once… I don’t know if I would call it a hymn. It was during a Bible Conference service with Peter Ng preaching. I don’t know what I did with it, maybe it is in an old notebook somewhere. It will be up to archaeology to find it and ??? decide what to do with it — probably bury it again.

Alas, I ain’t a poet, and I know it.

Regards,
Don Johnson

I have indeed been busy, either with church, family, vacation, a class, etc. But I haven’t stopped writing. Like you, I love words, and it’s good for me to post what I’m thinking. It actually helps me think more clearly. That said, I usually post when I have something to say; I don’t sit and work at it too much.

Anyway, I’ll be back at it soon, Lord willing.

And speaking of writing, did you ever consider working on a hymn. I’ve recently (almost) finished another, and it’s been a great experience, both as a writer and as a Christian thinker. Give it a shot.
