During my journalism days, I had the honor of writing for various publications including The New York Times and Latina magazine.

Writing for newspapers and national magazines was a thrill for this NYU grad with a master’s degree in journalism, but I gotta say the writing I do these days is a different kind of honor and delight.

I didn’t grow up wanting to write books. That idea never crossed my mind when I was a little girl scribbling in my journal, a high school and college newspaper reporter or even as a journalist.

That idea seemed even more outrageous after the Lord asked me to lay down my successful journalism career.

If you would’ve told me years ago that I would become a Christian author, I would have laughed at you.

But God!

On this National Author’s Day, I’m reflecting and rejoicing at how surreal it is for me to have written five Christian living books and devotionals, to be working on Book 6 and to now be a contributing writer for Our Daily Bread‘s VOICES Collection.

As a journalist, I would never write about my own story or faith or God.

But when God calls, He equips.

I’m grateful for God’s call on my life.

It’s still so rare to see Latina Christian authors writing Christian books in English.

I so appreciate your support and prayers.

Being a writer can seem glamourous. Maybe it is for some.

For me, it’s more of a call and a responsibility.

It’s also a great joy. The exhorter and evangelist in me delights in inspiring and uplifting Readers as they walk by abounding faith, hope and love and dare to live their God-given dreams.

I pray my books will continue to encourage and empower and edify Readers near and far. I pray that your faith is fueled, your hope ignited and your heart set ablaze with the love of God!
