Why I Write And Why Write

Heavenly Father,
I know why I write.

There is a continual verse flowing in me like a song, but until it is put into actual words with letters, mixed all together to form representatives of sounds, I don't know anything. Formless, the flowing verse laces itself with thoughts of "what I should buy at the grocery," "where will I get gas next time," "what is the weather like," "why am I perspiring," on and on. No context. No reason for being. Tangled up in my cluttered mind, the verse is vacant of any life. Instead it is mixed with thoughts of my real puny life and my much more exciting fantasy life. Thoughts unexpressed but weighing down the soul. Then I write and I am well again. The laces are untangled from the petty musings. I am free.

But why should I write Father? You hold all the worlds together with Your words. You have even written some for me to ponder, so that I may know You more clearly. The way You want to be known through "asking, seeking and knocking." As doors are opened I understand You more; plead for Your presence more.

Holy Father what scribing must I do in order to not just please myself but please You? Not that I would presume to step over into Your realm of expression, for You are the Holy God. You alone are worthy of all adoration and praise. I know why. In my heart I know the reason for being a scribe.

You know the reason and so I know as well and yet, even in this moment of once again unlacing my creative thoughts from my petty ponderings, I dare not put into words the reason. Its my life now. All That Is Left. The words, from Your perspective, would give the reason for writing. But is this writing life one that I am ready to embrace? Do You understand my query Father?

Of course You understand. Holy God Almighty, You understand every soul, every heart, every mind. You alone have created all. You alone have infused purpose in my DNA. So I scribe. You said, "scribe." I said, "Yes, I will."

It is important that I say it again at this minute in eternity, "Yes, I will. Because I love You and cherish You, even as You have loved me and cherished me."
