To Write or Not to Write

That is the question. I honestly have been very very lax in regards to my journaling, blogging, etc.. I think I know the reasons why but I also know they are not all relevant or acceptable excuses for putting off one of my favorite things to do, the expressing of my heart. God loves to hear my heart on all matters. I know this to be true because when I write those are the deepest most enduring moments I feel and hear from Papa. His love is ever searching me out and those moments when I am "too busy" to spend those bonus moments with Him, while disappointed He never leaves me feeling bad that I did not step into that invitation of intimacy. But I also know that I can not take this for granted either. Not that God will ever leave me quite the contrary He is ever present the moment I clear all to spend time with Him. What I miss out on when setting aside these moments of intimacy in its truest sense is all that He brings to me, fills me with and makes me whole again. I miss the growth, the strength, the encouragement that only God can give. I miss being able to see things through His eyes and His perspective. And above anything else I miss being loved on, being reminded in my identity as a child of the King of the universe, Daddy's little girl, conquering princess and so much more.

To write, I must, if only to grow closer to the Lover of my soul.
