✍️ Author Devotional – November 21, 2025

Theme: Writing With a Guarded Heart Scripture:“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” — Proverbs 4:23 (KJV)

As an author, every word you write flows from the deepest part of you — your heart. Your experiences, your faith, your wounds, your victories, your lessons, and your love all shape the voice God has given you. That’s why Scripture tells us to guard our hearts carefully.

Your heart is the wellspring of your creativity.Your heart is the birthplace of your calling.Your heart is the canvas where God paints inspiration.

But when your heart becomes overwhelmed, tired, discouraged, or cluttered with worry, your writing feels the pressure too. God calls you today to protect your heart — to keep it tender, peaceful, and in tune with Him. When your heart is guarded by His truth, your words carry strength, clarity, and compassion.

So take care of your heart:• Spend time with God.• Fill your spirit with worship.• Rest when needed.• Speak life over yourself.• Release discouragement quickly.

Because what flows from your heart flows into your writing — and God wants your words to spring from a place of purity and peace.

Reflection Prayer:

Lord, help me guard my heart today. Protect my thoughts, my emotions, and my spirit from anything that would distract or discourage me. Let my writing come from a heart that is full of Your peace, Your truth, and Your love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Today’s Challenge:Write one heartfelt paragraph today that reflects what God is doing in your heart right now. Let your writing come from a place of honesty, peace, and reflection.
