WRITING

What is writing? Writing is simply transferred thoughts from the mind through the fingers to a sheet of paper or computer screen. The thoughts can come from many sources...from research and study or just randomly thinking. Sometimes the thought usually comes with a 'feeling'.... of joy, peace, wonder, questioning or even sometimes from the evil one. Sometimes there is a feeling of anger, desperation, and hurt feelings or just out of control emotions.

I know "writers" can take courses learning all the grammatical facts and uses; where to place the punctuation and learn when to start a new paragraph. They also learn how to state their case and close it leaving the reader with a clear image of purpose of the article, book or devotional.

Our thoughts sometime come from our exposure to the media, other people, books we read, the Bible or a word from God. Most of the time (although I do not consider myself a writer) I personally hear a word in my spirit, then I meditate on it for a time and wait until the Holy Spirit says 'go with it'.

I would appreciate comments from all, especially the professional writers, to help direct my thinking on the subject and/or correct me. Personally, I believe writing is much more than this since what we put on paper or the computer will have an effect on some readers and it will come just at the right time to encourage someone else.

What do you think?
