Grateful Every Day

When I meet people I am often greeted with the words, "Bless you" or "God bless you."  My response is always the same. I say, "He already has."


I have been blessed above and beyond anything I could have imagined or expected.  I could never have dreamed when I first rented that typewriter that my books would top the bestseller lists.  Who could have guessed that one day movies, let alone an entire television series, would be produced from my stories.  All of that was beyond the scope of my imagination. 


God has blessed me and the work of my hands and I don't ever want to forget that, or fail to give the credit back to Him.

Dixie-Lee Campbell Grateful to be blessed for the past weekend at the Inspire International Book Fair in Toronto... one I never would have expected to ever happen let alone the way it came about ... a contest entry Inspire composition to provide the gateway to an incredible meeting with you for a precious hour !!! It was amazing to meet new people who share the enjoyment of your creative stories that you write and sit and knit along with you and to just chat normal chat. But I am in awe of your discipline to the routine you have in place. I do try... and strive to gain discipline of routine with goals. Thank you for sharing your time, reinforcing inspirational moments to use in my everyday routine. Dixie-Lee :-)
