To write is to speak using only the voice that lies deep within your soul. It exposes your deepest thoughts to all the world, and once the words are released, there is no way to take them back. It takes a brave person to lay it all on the altar in this way, knowing that not everyone will appreciate or understand your unprotected words.
True writing, then, encompasses the next step of releasing your words to the world. Most of us have spent years with our own thoughts, spilling them onto the nearest blank sheet of paper, but it can’t stop there. In order for our words to touch the lives of others, we must learn to lay them on the altar, and trust that God will put them in the hands, and eventually the hearts, of those that need them most.
