Attention Sunrise Christian Writers. This opportunity is just for you! Are you grateful
for an experience, accomplishment or relationship? Has God moved in your heart
and filled you with gratitude? Think how your story could inspire someone else
to appreciate golden opportunities and blessings. Write a devotional story
about gratitude and base it on a Scripture from the Psalms or Proverbs. Submit
it to Sunrise Christian Writers for their third annual anthology titled
“Gratitude.” Writer Guidelines
