Getting Started
The secret of getting ahead is getting started. —Mark Twain
I have procrastinated too long in writing. Where should I
start? Do I write in order? What if no one likes it? What if I can’t get those
words flowing? I can’t find a comfortable spot to write. Do I type or do I use
pen and paper? I need to clean my office first. On and on the excuses went.
With the art of writing I became an award winning
procrastinator.
Now to divulge further let me tell you, when I asked God, my
inner Spirit Guide, my greater power “what should I do?” I was facing some
unrest in my soul and I knew tides were turning. I got a one word answer “WRITE”.
WOW! God is asking me to write, asking me to tell my story. That is a big
calling and one you do not want to fail. However fail I have because I have not
been obedient to his calling due to fear.
So today I throw that out the window and sit with my laptop
upon my lap, in the living room, with a mess around me and three lazy dogs. I
am not physically comfortable, but I do have a cuppa tea as my symbol of comfort
(my security blanket, my wubba).
Before I opened my document to begin typing on a blank page
I randomly opened my Bible. Now I am a pen to paper type of gal so this typing
thing is a challenge. I do open my Bible randomly when I sense the urge as I feel the energy guidance
will direct me to read what I should read versus what I want to read. To hear
what I need to hear versus what I want to hear.
This is what the spirit gave me
today... Psalm 32: 3
“When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning
all the day long.”
Read on to verse 8...
I best get busy. So here I go, to infinity and beyond, I am getting started.
