I have been writing since a child, and never knew I am a writer inside. I loved the expression without knowing I have got talent. Any piece of paper, receipt or an old envelop even that of a bill; a thought, a mood I’m in, sometimes I would draw what I am feeling, on anything. Writing was an expression to let out steam, my creative thoughts and mostly I recorded my emotions and into my teens as a christian my dreams.
My family thought it was strange for me to have a diary I was being too white. So the practice of writing and throwing away my notes and scraps became a habit. In school my writing ability never came out, but in the year of 2011 the writer within became alive.I started writing blogs. My first blogs was about dreams I called it Inspired by the Night. https://kerinainspiredinthenight.blogspot.com/
I would dream dreams, so many dreams and have visions I would write about them on my blog, and as a Christians my faith is included. I wrote about my faith and challenges, painful and wonderful ones too. Poetry became a new language I learnt quickly in the heat of my emotions. I am woman blog arose out of the ashes of pain but with victory. Faith, passion, love, sexuality relationships and definitely womanhood were the topics I ran with on I am woman blog spot. https://womanexpressyou.blogspot.com/
And as I saw purpose in my writings, it was work for me beyond the walls of church. I grew up in church attended Sunday schools and vacation bible schools until it seems like you grow out of it. And you have that period in your life when you feel lost without a goal or hope. The struggles we face beyond the walls of our church.
The things you see and notice in those times can be shocking and heart piercing to one’s belief. Disappointments another fight to win, even though we are told we are victorious because of the end in the most Holy Book. It is true we are victorious in the end. Now my question is why we aren’t victorious in our now, our daily lives. So I further ventured into another blog called the breaker anointing, for breaking down barriers and myths about church life, truth and lies, wrong and right. I did not quite accomplish that goal with this blog other than creating its name and posting a few post and went a bit of course until I bother with it no more. http://thebreakeranointing.blogspot.com/
However purpose was still my course I created other Facebook communities and groups, and a cyber-prayer networks that I have now complied with one of my many creation of social groups and blogs. Women Of Courage Prayer & Power Organization on Facebook you can find us at https://www.facebook.com/KerinaFosterMurray/ and the website http://www.womenofcourageprayerandpower.com/
I believe sometimes we have to fail in order to succeed, a growing social company, not a church or a ministry even though the word of God is prominent in my post, the purpose is being outside the walls, not empty of the word of God.
In spite of my struggles and failures continuing in the word of God healed me in ways and places that became numb and lifeless. As a woman I am flawed I have made mistakes and even grammatically ones as I pursue the writer in me. Amateur maybe, but surely we all are and were one point in our lives as we begin something new or old skills that was forgotten.
As you can see in your reading of this writing, writing is “totally my expression” I flow poetically on point in my emotions when I moved and inspired in energy whether I am happy or angry. Socializing in the way I found that I am good at writing not so much speaking out loud although sometimes I really want to. Writing was, is my voice and I found it.
In 2012 May 27th Women Of Courage Prayer & Power Organization was on its way via social media, while I am still actively writing on my blogs.
A desire to also reach children I created, on February 14th 2013 Living through The Eyes of Child and was in social community, Facebook that same day. https://www.facebook.com/LivingThroughTheEyesOfAChild/ I decided to promote the idea by having the name of the page publicly in Spanish Viviendo A Través De Los Ojos De Un Niño for the Spanish/Latino community as I am by heritage on my mother’s side, and as a strong desire to reconnect with those roots I pursued in learning Spanish self-thought and with the help others I began to reclaim little o bit of my heritage, unfortunately my progress in the language was short lived by lack of practice due to other work and priorities that needed to be met.
