A Writers Heart

My friend Caitlin wrote this. But like she said, it was inspired by God. And it's so so true. It really did inspire me! So, I had no part in it's writing but I TOTALLY know this emotion:

Lately, I’ve been trying to find the right words to pen down, a paragraph of something beautiful for the One I love. I had this burden to write, but no words were flowing down the page. Frustrated, I balled up so many pieces of paper and scratched through so many thoughts and ideas. I had my head in my hands, my notebook tossed across my bedroom floor in frustration, and my heart still burdened by this desire to create and write something. Out of nowhere, I heard God say to me:

“Listen, my child. You don’t have to do a thing. I simply enjoy you. I love looking over your shoulder as you doodle those crazy things in your notebook. I enjoy watching your pen travel down the page in excitement when I give you a new idea. I love gazing at the fire in your eyes and the determination on your face as you write. I especially love it when you lean back in your chair, sigh, and look up at Me because I know you are looking at Me for more ideas, like you are doing now. So have peace, My darling. This burden in your heart is not to write. It’s Me, and I just want to spend a little time with you. Toss the notebook aside, put the cap on the pen, and let me tug on your heart a little longer…”
