Want to improve your blog devotions?

We do, so we asked Gail Purath.

A military wife for 22 years, a missionary to Budapest for 5 years, Gail is a wife, mother, grandmother and author of 1-Minute Bible Love Notes

Here’s what Gail has to say about writing better blog devotions:


12 Tips for Better Blog Devotions:

The internet is not the library https://avigeneric.com/../. People don’t come in, check the card catalog, pull a book off the shelf and take it home for a long read. Unfortunately, many blog writers are still writing as if that were the case.

1. Pray

Writing is important ministry.


2. Edit

Rewriting is often more important than writing!

  • Make sure your content is well arranged and understandable.
  • Make sure your grammar and punctuation are correct.
  • Stay on point–cut unnecessary words/explanations and don’t take side trips from your message.
“I’m not a very good writer, but I’m an excellent rewriter.” 
~ James A. Michener
 
“I rewrote the ending of ‘Farewell to Arms’ 39 times before I was satisfied.”

~ Ernest Hemingway


3. Don’t get preachy or angry.

We can’t expect to improve as writers and bloggers if we aren’t constantly learning. 

If writing is one of our gifts, then we owe it to God and to our readers (present and future) to invest time improving our writing and blogging skills.

This is a good application of the parable of the talents. God expects us to diligently use whatever gifts He gives us.

I try each week to learn more about writing and blogging, and there are a plethora of sites that I like.

I recommend these for blogging . . . Keep Reading
