Cling to God is a book of devotionals for every day of the year. The aim is to encourage Christians in their faith, to help them think about their beliefs and learn more about God. The devotions are short and inspirational so that people with busy lifestyles will still be able to spend time with the Lord each day. It will appeal to a wide Christian audience, to those new in their faith as well as those matured beyond milk and honey.
I also have a few online friends helping to celebrate today. Please help me show my gratitude by visiting their blogs: Alex J Cavanaugh, Denise Covey, Michael Di Gesu, Susan Gourley, S A Larsen, Anna Simpson, Stephen Tremp, Michelle Wallace, Diane Wolfe.
And also some more friends will be helping out in the coming days: Lexa Cain, Chrys Fey, Carol Kilgore, Joylene Nowell Butler, C Lee McKenzie, and Carol Riggs. Thank you to everyone who has shown friendship and encouragement and support over the years. You guys are awesome!
Every first Wednesday of the month the members of the IWSG post on their blogs about their writing insecurities or offer some encouragement to others. If you are new to the IWSG, then please go HERE to find out more and join up.

Hi Lynda - congratulations on your release date; while the concept is such a good one and I'm sure will be a hit ... but that cover totally draws one in - love it - and can quite see why you whooped for joy ... cheers Hilary
Hi Lynda, Congratulations and I look forward to your release. Your cover looks good. I like the flower motif. The name of your book speaks to my heart, Cling to God. As a woman who lives by faith, I consider clinging to God is not an alternative but a must if we want to pilot through our journey successfully.
All the best.
Shalom aleichem,
Patricia

Congratulations on your published book. I can never have too many devotionals, to keep my study time fresh. I'll have to check it out! I enjoyed your entry today for the Insecure Writer's Support Group, which I just recently joined. www.dianeweidenbenner.com

It was a calling I never expected to hear, which, I guess, is often the case.
Thanks, EE!!!
The flowers bud for a very short time in spring.
I won't tell you how many photos I took before I got that one ;)

Thanks, Nick. For me it's kinda special that the flowers bloom just outside my front door.
Congratulations, Lynda!
Thanks, Blue :)
I bet you've got another one lined up, right?
Hahahahaha... no. I have a loose outline for another Christian non-fic, an oh-so-close to finished YA scifi novel but there is something still not quite right with it so I'm sitting on it, and I have a whole new scifi novel (not YA) just starting.. oh and then there is a fantasy novel that needs a whole rewrite. Sigh...
