Timely Discovery of an Unpublished Post

In July I wrote:

"I am a bit nervous for this blog.
In my posts already published there's a different tone.
The key element of my writing is missing...and I can't incorporate it as I have before.
The One I love cannot be mentioned as I would like to speak of Him.

The life is out of my writing.
The air has been removed from my balloon.
My ice cream has fallen off the cone. (haha)

But seriously...

Know that I will do my BEST to use descriptive language similar to my former manner, but if I can't write directly about HIM, what will I write about that has any good purpose? With what will I infuse my writing?

We shall see.

May the artist work as he chooses."

HAHAHAHA!!!

Since being in China I have discovered that I can still write about Him and not get kicked out (yet). And so, I will...and all the more.

I don't like writing about the day-to-day stuff in China because...you don't want to READ about that. You want to see pictures. (I post them on Facebook.)

I can't not write about what the Lord is teaching me and showing me. (Double negative used for emphasis.)

Maybe it won't change how many people read, but it changes my perspective and delight in writing.

Not that I have written about China much, but now I am publicly saying: my mindset has officially changed. I am returning to my old ways.

Thank you.

  1. So...I have not been reading your blog. But now I see that I should :) I'll be stopping by more often.
