Bridging the gap between writing and publishing
Hi, I’m Marcie and I’m so thrilled you are visiting with me today. Thank you for stopping by.
It is my hope you will feel at home here in my little corner of the world. I’m a lover of sweet tea and chocolate. But if you prefer coffee, then bring your own cup, pull up a chair, and let’s see if we can help you cross the bridge to being the best writer you can be.
Did I mention I’m a lover of poetry? I find that it best expresses my love of God and helps me find my way through difficult places. My book, Broken and Spilled Out is my collection of poetry and prayers for the hurting soul. Besides chronicling my own insights, my readers can also journal and record insights of their own. You can get your copy here.
Should you simply need some encouragement, I invite you to meet me over at my blog Heart Thoughts.
I’m so glad you’re here and look forward to connecting with you!

Abide In Me
Dear Lord, I’m asking for a fresh presence of You in our lives. When we abide in You, and You in us, we can ask anything in Your name, and You will give it (John 15:7). And since we have been crucified with Christ, and Christ lives in us, we can live by faith that You will sustain us and deliver us from anything that is trying to prevail against us.
My refrain this week has been, Revive Us Again. Heavenly Father, revive our hearts.
Simple Thanks
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. 1 Chronicles 16:34
I’ve been working on my new poetry book, Gatherings of a Grateful Heart. For five years I have been writing a poem a day during the month of November. I call it “30 Days of Thanksgiving”. Each day is a poem about thanksgiving in some way. Sometimes it is not as evident in the words where the thanksgiving is, but it is there.
This week, I cannot seem to pick just one poem to share. Here’s a sample of six of the poems in my book.
I hope they encourage you and help you find ways to give thanks to the Lord this week.
Hope In God
I LOVE how the Psalmist encourages us to go to God in our times of distress. This afternoon I pulled out my iPad, opened the Bible app, searching for something to give me a little light. A little hope.
Ever have God touch the Bible for you and open it just where you need it? Oh how sweet His grace was as He said, “Open to Psalm 42.”
“Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.”
Did you see it too?
Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and
he will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3 (NIV)
