I met Quaneshia Green-Bryant again today (she wrote the book about T.O.U.C.H., (click link) about the loss of her still-born son) and she has a book out about her journey.
I asked how much the publishing costs were and she said you can publish for zip, nada.... I was like, WHAAAATTT??
So, I am going to publish my crazy life story at some point using this CreateSpace.com service.
Here is a link to the options:

If you have thought of publishing, this might be the route for you, if you have no funding and a tight budget. I will check it out later and let you know when my book is released..... :)
TRUE SAINTLINESS
ReplyDelete'Tis not in seeming holiness of look,
'Tis not in mental knowledge of God's Book,
But in a heart-communion with the Lord,
When He is loved and evil is abhored.
'Tis not in gilded words, most nicely said,
Nor in flatt'ring way, to lying wed,
But in graciousness of heart and life,
That loves the Lord, and fears to stir up strife.
'Tis not by platform speeches, full of fire,
'Tis not in that to which most men aspire,
But rather in the background–service done,
Unto the Lord, seen by no other one.
'Tis not in liberal gifts, however large,
'Tis not in public work that men discharge,
But in the quiet self-denial found,
In giving all to Him when none surround.
'Tis not in going forth to heathen shores,
And speaking loudly of "the open doors,"
But 'tis to please Him, wheresoever placed,
Lest His all glorious name should be disgraced.
'Tis not in talking of a coming Lord,
'Tis not in speaking of "Himself" - "His Word,"
But 'tis in real obedience, in His way,
In holy, reverent waiting for "that Day."
