So, now what?

"So, now what?

“Look what you’ve started, Robert. You were so excited to have begun your very own blog. You went out and invited people to read it, and they actually did. And they even acted like they might be willing to read more of what you write! They were gracious and encouraging . . . .

“So, now what?

“You've looked around on the Internet enough to know that there are all kinds of blogs out there. And just how many of those were you even a little interested in? That’s what I thought. So, why would yours be any different. Why would anyone look forward to your next posting?

“So, now what? Whatcha-gonna-do-now?”



Well, I’ll tell you what I am going to do. I am going to step out in FAITH. . . and write. You see, I know this as well as I know my own name: I have been given a gift by God Himself. It’s a gift--an ability to write. When it is in operation at it’s best, I stand back in amazement at what I have written. That’s how I know it is God that is forming the words in my heart; when I am blessed (sometimes even to tears) by reading something I just wrote.

I just start out, and trust Him to do the rest. I don’t have to worry about the result. That’s not my job. It’s His job to make what He will out of it. And He is ever faithful and true. He meets me here and carries me to places and shows me things beyond myself. How wonderful is that? Who wouldn’t want to see God in action--moving through the gifts that He Himself has placed on the inside of them?

This is what FAITH is all about. It’s about knowing that you know something will happen. You might not know all the how, why, or when of it . . . but you know . . . you are thoroughly convinced and have a deep inside peace . . . and nothing can change that which you hold in your heart. Sometimes, your mind might want you to doubt. It may look beyond impossible, but your heart is steadfast, unshakable, unwavering--trusting in Him--at rest, knowing He will do it.

“So, now what?”

So, now I write . . . The Song of My Heart, The Words That I Write.
