"The heaviest obligation lying upon the Christian Church today is to purify and elevate her concept of God until it is once more worthy of Him- and of her. In all her prayers and labors this should have first place. We do the greatest service to the next generation of Christians by passing on to them undimmed and undiminished that noble concept of God which we received from our Hebrew and Christian fathers of generations past." A.W. Tozer

I really desire to write more. I haven't really written in at least six months, if not longer. The drought has been going on for a couple years in all reality. I used to write all the time, pouring out my heart, filling pages upon pages of my laments and musings. It was pretty dark stuff but I am thankful that I was able to get it out. I wrote more when I was depressed and angry, lost and hopeless. Now, two years from my victory over depression and anxiety I struggle to communicate on paper/blogs the cries of my heart. Why is that? Why can't I testify to God's goodness now? I've never known greater joy and hope in the past two years, yet I can't seem to pour that out. Am I afraid to share? Am I too much of a perfectionist, unwilling to write out undeveloped thoughts and poorly formed sentences? I'm tired of being silent. I'm tired of my laziness and lack of desire in regards to my writing. I have a story to tell, by the grace of God, and it is a crime for me to hold inside the marvelous works of my Father. My goal is fixed on disciplining myself to write on this blog at least once a week, if not more. I don't want to care how bad it reads or how confusing it may be. I just want to write and write and write. I want to pour out my heart and put to text the musings of my heart. So, that's what I'm going to try to do.
