God,
There are times when I wonder
Am I on the right page?
When my ink hits the paper
Do my words engage?
Is anybody listening?
Does anybody care?
Or am I just talking to myself….
Is anybody there?
Are people weary of my prose
Have I blathered on and on?
In my passion to convey Your love
Have I come on too strong?
I only want to listen
To what You have to say
I only want to pass on
What You give me every day
But if I’m to be silent
Please show me what to do
My only goal, my precious Lord,
Is to show people You
And if there’s no one listening
Help me just to know
That my goal is to hear You
And let all the rest go.
Thank You for the words you share
Show me what to do
Help me to write as from Your heart
Help others to see You
I give my hands, my heart, my life
To sit and write today
But I will still listen and love
If You take it all away
Use my words, use my life
May they always be
Yours to do with as You choose
It’s all “write” with me….
I like it — I think you’re on the “write” track!
Thanks, girl….sometimes I’m not so sure…
Are there forums for writers? Just wondering because that might be a good place to give and receive encouragement from people who struggle with the same kinds of issues. Just a thought.
Keep writing!
