So often as a teen I would write fantasy stories, some of which was quite dark as I was "into" that. But that was back before I sought God.
Now that God has called me to Him, I only want to do what pleases and glorifies Him. And I love to read, write and I like fantasy.
Lately I've thought of a story about a little girl who is locked up in a dungeon, and two fairies are sent to fulfill her wish to find her father. The fairies are like parental/ angelic figures and they embark on a journey in the quest to find her father. I want to incorporate values of God such as faith, love, patience, respect, companionship, hope, mercy, humbleness and fighting against evil/ sin. Also the fairies magic does not work like in fairytales, where everything is just given, but is revealed with time and in mysterious ways.
But is writing fantasy, even with values of God, giving glory to God. Or is it just satisfying my fleshly desire. Because I only want to do this if it's His Will and for His Glory. Because even as a child, I had a vivid imagination, and there has to be a reason for it.
