Wow.
I had no idea.
I have no real desire to be a Christian writer. I don’t consider myself to be one really. I just write what I believe and lots of times my actions and thoughts don’t line up with the Bible or what people perceive Christians to be so instead of trying to make myself into something I’m not, I just don’t wear that label.
No, the magazine that contacted me wasn’t a Christian mag, but the reader who wrote the comment sent me a link to a Christian mag that needed writers and I did apply. I don’t mind writing on those topics and maybe I’d be good at it but honestly I’ve never thought about it because I don’t consider my writing to be Bible based or a guideline for good Christian living. I hardly read the Bible and I don’t know many scriptures and when I think of all the other Christian based writers they seem to know it all and have all the answers and I know I don’t.
I guess because I mention God a lot, people assume I’m a Christian writer. I guess I don’t want to wear that label because I just do my own thing and…I don’t want Christians to be shamed by me representing them, cuz I AM going to BE ME at all times. You feel me?
I don’t represent Christianity, I represent ME. This doesn’t have a title. This is about a woman learning who she is and following the path she believes will lead to her desired end. I could have easily been exposed to any other religion. Even though I don’t practice a religion, I do adore God and believe in Jesus.
My ambitions are rooted in living in God’s will and multiplying my business. I don’t ever want to confuse the two. Meaning…I don’t want ministry to become a business. That’s why I coach for free. But maybe I should rethink that. I don’t know. I just feel like if I take the time to feed others words of wisdom, not worrying about being paid back, that God will take care of me.
Maybe that’s not a good business practice but I just…believe that some things, like love, advice and concern should be given freely. Maybe I’m naiive but I’d want those things to be given to me without a price sticker.
Well what kind of writer am I? I don’t know.
I just…write my evolution.
Do I have to be classified? I don’t like to be put in a box like that.
If you want to call me anything…just call me…Tee. Let that be it.
