next...

All the time friends and family ask me how the writing is coming along. It is so wonderful to have so many people listen and know where my heart is. I am fortunate to have them in my corner. Sometimes I get discouraged when the answer is, "Well, I have been too busy this week to find time to write." I find myself longing for the hours to sit in front of my computer with my Bible open and write. However, at the same time, I seem to find myself wasting hours of my day doing nothing or doing something that isn't worth anything. I must pray for discipline and determination. So often I believe the lie that if I love it, it comes easy. Writing is not just a talent, it's a choice. Thanks for being on the journey with me.

I've also found that my creativity dies when I'm stressed and busy. My brain need some down-time to recharge the creative battery. It's weird in our culture, but peace, rest, and down-time are a part of the discipline necessary to do creative work.

Thanks for being awesome!
