I have a fun project for all of us Christian bloggers to contribute on together – a Christian Group Writing Project.
How this works is that a blogger will choose a topic from the list provided and write a post on that topic on their blog. Once the post is up, the blogger will need to leave their link in the comments section so that everyone can read it.
Bloggers will have a couple days to choose a topic and then 1 week to write the post. Once everyone has submitted their posts, I will publish a round up of all the posts with links back to the blogger’s blog. The entire writing project will then be complied into a special report for the bloggers who contribute to giveaway for free on their own sites.
The topic for the first ever Faithful Blogger’s Group Writing Project will be Psalms 23. Each blogger will select a verse and write a post explaining what that verse means to them. It can be as long or as short as you want. It can be a personal testimony, a devotional, or Bible study in nature. It can be a photo that you believe describes the verse. Anything goes.
Psalms 23
1. The LORD [is] my shepherd; I shall not want.
2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
If you choose a verse, please leave a comment saying so. I understand we may have more than 6 bloggers who are interested in participating and that is fine. Duplicates are fine, but please make sure all verses are accounted for at least once before duplicating choices.
You will have until Monday, July 5, 2010 to choose and claim a verse and then until July 12, 2010 to write your post and leave a link here in the comments to the permalink of your post.
Oh yea, their is a prize for participating too. Everyone that participates (as in actually writes a post and submits the link) will be put into a drawing to win a free custom Twitter background!
I can’t wait to read everyone’s thoughts on Psalms 23!

Now my comment with my url link appears, but I sent it two other times tonight, and the first one was before midnight July 11, 2010, so I hope it made it under the wire. Just wanted to clarify that!
Thanks, Courtney, for doing this–I know it will bless so many people!

I included “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want” in a post a couple of months ago, but I thought you might enjoy reading it anyway. http://hickmama.blogspot.com/2010/04/herding-cats.html. http://hickmama.blogspot.com/2010/04/herding-cats.html
Here is the link to my post. I have posted it on a temporary backup blog as my official blog ReflectionsOfAQueen.com is down. I have no idea why. Tech support is working on it. I don’t know when it will be back up. I hope that this is okay, and that I won’t be penalized or punished and be disqualified for something that is out of my control. I just want to have it posted on time.
I will re-post my devotional when my official site comes back up. In the mean time here is my post at it’s temporary location.

Here is the permanent link to my project entry at my official blog site.

I will keep the temporary post up for a while to prove that I did post my entry on July 12, just on a temporary site while my site was down.
When you compile all of the posts for your special report please include this link

Thank you for your understanding and thank you for the opportunity.
God bless you and everyone here!
When we allow God our shepherd to guide us, we have contentment. Only one person can walk us through pain, suffering, hunger, thirst, sickness, sorrow, despair,
discomfort, fear, pride, sin, death and into eternal life! God, the perfect shepherd promises to guide and protect us through this life to bring us into the next life forever. Because He has already walked this pathway beforehand, ahead of His sheep.
