Blogger's Block

I finally had some time for blogging this morning.  Time to sit down, think a hopefully coherent thought, and put together something "original."  After a busy few days, I was looking forward to writing a few words that would be, well... you know.  New.  Fresh.  Maybe even (dare I hope it?) a teensy bit inspiring.  So I sat at my blogging desk and wrote....

nothing.  Absolutely nothing. 

I poked around the Internet for a bit, checked my e-mail, read some really good blog posts, and came back to my blank screen to write...

nothing. 

I got up and did a bit of cleaning.  Had something to eat.

Came back to my chair and prayed.  After all, I have been trusting that GOD will get something onto this blog whenever HE wants there to be............

Oh.

I want to do what He wants me to do, when He wants it done - have I said that?  Yes.  Do I mean  that?  Well, yes.  Yes, I do mean it. 

Oh.

And so I write this not to fill up a post, but to pass along the "lesson" I think Our Lord has been teaching me today.  I (ideally) write for Him, or not at all.  I (ideally) share what HE wants, when HE wants, or I may as well keep silent.
