That's it for today - the title says it all. I tried to write this morning. I chose from one of several topics and ideas I have jotted down and gave it my best shot. But it didn't happen. It became very obvious very quickly that it wasn't meant to be. It wasn't what God wanted me doing today.
How do I know? Because when I'm writing when and what He wants me to write, the words just flow. I'm amazed every morning at how easily the words come and how quickly my thoughts are completed and laid out there on the page. My fingers hit the keyboard and take off. I'm not in control. Literally. It's Him doing the talking and the writing, He's just using my fingers to get the words across.
But this morning was different. The words didn't come. The paragraphs didn't flow. I was laboring over what to say, how to say it and how I was going to make the connection between my earthly example and God's Heavenly meaning. It became very obvious very quickly that today God was saying, "Just shut up and listen!" So that's what I'm doing. I'm listening and not writing. My goal for today is to be still and be quiet and just listen. Maybe it should be yours, too.
"Be still, and know that I am God..." ~ Psalm 46:10
"... in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength..." ~ Isaiah 30:15
