Physician and Writer. You may know me from Twitter @John_Whittemore My novel “The Making Of The World” is represented by Talcott-Notch Literary Agency.
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God. He, to rescue me from danger, interposed his precious blood.
I wish I could rewrite your story. You put the gun in your mouth but instead it misfired. You called me back and said you were sorry. You lived to be old. You were beautiful and good. If I could write that it feels like I could keep you alive, but I'm not good enough a writer.

So much of life feels like throwing a party where everyone RSVPs but no one shows up

Just finished a short story. Tomorrow it will be time to reread it with fresh eyes and decide if it's worth editing to the point that others can read

We look into each other’s eyes and believe we understand that which is looking back at us, but we do not... We are gazing into a mystery that may only known through reverence and love.

The world is flooding with rage bait. They want us all convinced that we are surrounded by enemies who must be destroyed before they destroy us. Instead choose peace… “Love your enemies. Pray for those who persecute you.”

I care about too many people, so life is a constant heartache. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

All the agonies were just so we could finally recognize the glory

We all love severely flawed people. This is the nature of love.

We live in a world that buries us in distractions to protect us from the spiritual agonies of being lost and saved. I need no more noise… Give me quiet agonies instead.
