Unbloggable
Whenever I hear a mind-blowing word from God, it is almost always my immediate next step to share it with someone. It only seems appropriate to tell people about it, on the off-chance that someone will find encouragement the way I did. God has so frequently spoken to me through the insights he’s given others, be it via blogs or some other means. It doesn’t seem right to me to keep that kind of thing to myself.
Tonight after some intense prayer time, I was all set to share with you how God had just rocked my world! But I immediately felt convicted to keep it to myself. I had to wonder why that would be a good idea. Someone else could need to hear what I just heard! But God really pressed on my heart that I was guilty of looking for the fruit of my prayers to be an epic blog rather than intimacy with Him.
Of course there will still be plenty of times where I need to share what I learn with people I care about. But the goal of my quiet time shouldn’t ever be to hear a fresh word that’s going to speak to someone else. Sometimes it’s just for the two of us. And there’s nothing wrong with that.
So here I am, ironically blogging about not blogging about stuff.
