Harvest

http://dl.creationswap.com/10829.jpg

My facebook status this afternoon said “Writers Block”. A sweet friend wrote “time for a 5 minute Wednesday? The word is harvest.

So here we go:

All around me the world seems to be entering a harvest time. Except with my words. Struggling between what I think I should write and the beat of my heart. I want to learn to write about things that my heart isn’t feeling.

Or maybe I shouldn’t?

Do I wait until my heart says YES. Write about this.

What does harvest time teach me?

To do the work. Sometimes it’s not fun. Sometimes it’s really hard. But a harvest will come. “Do not grow weary in doing good. For in the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

Thank you Alex for propelling me toward exactly that! To write, to not give up.

Fall is my favorite season. May my words join in with all the beauty I see around me.

    I completely understand your dilemma! When I was getting my thoughts together for my post this week, I had a GREAT idea. I had just one problem, I had nothing in my heart to write about MY great idea. Then, as I was reading an article from one of my favorite authors, I saw a sentence and it was as if our Lord was telling me what HIS great idea for my post for this week was and since He and I had this understanding that my blog would always be for His honor alone, I had no choice but to write on that. Needles to say, there was no need for me to break my mind for thoughts and words on that subject; it just came and came and came. If you want to read my post, or should I rather say, our Lord’s great idea (LoL), you can do so at hisnlovingembrace .wordpress.com.
    May our Lord bless you by removing that writers block and give you His words to write in that unique, gentle, beautiful Melanie style!
    Blessings

    • Thank you Mia. Most of this week I just felt blah toward writing. But when I connect to him, it lifts. Thank you for being so encouraging!
