My Take

DiVoran Lites

From Streams in the Desert by Mrs. Charles E Coman

I will fear no evil for thou art with me (Psalm 23:41)

Little one, you must not fret,

That I take your clothes away.

The better sleep you so will get

In the morning, I wake up happier

Says the children’s mother.

It would help if you were unclothed again,

You need a better dress,

Too much worn are body and brain.

Says the Heavenly Father.

I went down death’s lovely  stair; 

Laid my garments in the tomb; 

Dressed again one morning fair; 

Hastened up and hied me home,

Saith the Elder Brother.

Then, I will not be afraid. 

Any ill can come to me;

When it’s time to go to bed,

I will rise and go with Thee,

Saith, the little brother 

God delights to disappoint man’s fears. 

George MacDonald

DiVoran has been writing for most of her life. Her first attempt at a story was when she was seven years old and her mother got a new typewriter. DiVoran got to use it and when her dad saw her writing he asked what she was writing about. DiVoran answered that she was writing the story of her life. Her dad’s only comment was, “Well, it’s going to be a very short story.” After most of a lifetime of writing and helping other writers, DiVoran finally launched her own dream which was to write a novel of her own. She now has her Florida Springs trilogy and her novel, a Christian Western Romance, Go West available on Amazon. When speaking about her road to publication, she gives thanks to the Lord for all the people who helped her grow and learn.  She says, “I could never have done it by myself, but when I got going everything fell beautifully into place, and I was glad I had started on my dream.”
