Flat little writer’s block

Having trouble getting focused? Do your ideas disappear when you finally get to the keyboard after a long day?

John Eldredge talks about how when Satan can’t get a believer to stop working for God, he buries that believer in busy work. Eldridge calls it a “dog pile.” The dog pile distracts us from the gifts and bigger jobs God has given us. If you have the gift to write, but you can’t find time to write, look and see what is robbing your time.  Chances are media is a big time thief.

                My phone is two rooms away when I write. Where is yours?

                You can’t write if you can’t focus.
