I won’t call it writer’s block.
It’s been fear.
Fear of failure. Fear of success.
Pride?
Perfectionism?
I haven’t unpacked all of this yet and as someone who battles this daily in one area or the next, it will take time.
But it hit me that I’d forgotten a key reason I write.
It isn’t because I think I have some rare knowledge that no one else has.
It’s because I need to hear it.
Write it.
Go back to it. Again and again.
It’s the Holy Spirit’s way of giving me instruction and downloads I will need in the future.
Pride will make me get arrogant and believe that its because I have somehow mastered the topic so I have authority to say it, write it, print it.
What a lie!
It’s a privilege to share things I know and some I have proven.
It is an honor to be a vessel through which the Lord shares wisdom and strategy that He wants His people to know so they can thrive.
I write.
Philippians 3: 12-24 (NKJV) – 12 Not that I have already attained,[a] or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have [b]apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
