What Would Happen If I Stopped Writing?

Since the middle of October I have written nearly 100 pages, front and back, in a large 5 subject, college ruled notebook. I've written 11 blog posts, which is alot considering I only wrote 22 posts all of 2010.

The thing is...I could have written so much more. I censor myself.

Even in my journaling, which is supposed to be just between me and Jesus, I will hold back, I will let myself be destracted by other things, I tell myself I will do it later...

Except later never happens, and things that God brings to my attention, things I need to have record of, slip away, and I lose the more that God wants to give me.

I don't write here on my blog very often because it requires me to focus and feel like I have to have something profound to say. And sometimes I wonder if anyone even read this or does everything I pour into a post, never find anyone's eyes and heart. Maybe that is a prideful motivation. Maybe I need to remember that ultimately I write because it has drawn me closer to Jesus.

And if the Holy Spirit uses it with others, well, that is His work not mine.

I want to be a good steward of my talent. And not bury it.

So I'm going to make an investment. Starting now, I'm going to try to post everyday for a month. Pictured is my list of ideas.
