One thing that I have always found really interesting is how easy it is to write about nothing. Whenever I think of a specific topic to write about -- like mercy, shopping, youth ministry, or love -- I get finger-tied (rather than tongue-tied). Maybe it's because I enjoy the broader approach to writing, or maybe it's because I don't write enough to feel confident in my skills. Or maybe it's because I'm not a mother with a ton of adorable pictures I can upload of my kids. Whatever the reason is, I know that the only way to become a good writer is to write, write, and write. Even if the way I write is not right, but rather grammatically
wrong incorrect; I will just continue to write.
I have tried to keep up with a blog a couple of times but I always get this doubt that everything I will write will end up being some regurgitated wise thing that someone else already said. There's a lie that is easy to believe that everything that I have to say has already been said in a better, wittier way.
But I can't think like that.
God created me with a purpose and I have a story that He wants to share through me. I just have to write like I would write to God-- when it's just me and Him.
So, whether no one reads this or a thousand people do.. I'm writing like it's just me:
Nat Marie.
