Beautiful interview, with lots of lessons to pick out. The tragedies of life should not break us, but make us. I love what Lily is doing, especially in obeying God and bringing out the message He has placed in her heart. Loved that Maya Angelou's quote. This summed it all up for me:
ReplyDelete'Maya Angelou says, “You don’t have to be popular to be powerful.” I believe that whole-heartedly. My priority is to deliver the best product I have to give, and touch the hearts of those I reach. I don’t need a lot of people to read my writing, just the right people.'
Well said, Lulu.
