Have you ever had writer’s block before? I’m thankful that it is not a frequent problem that I face, which is nice because my role as pastor requires me to do a lot of writing. However, this week it’s my turn to write the “Pastor’s column” for the newspaper and that pesky writer’s block has hit me.
Usually when I sit down to write these columns I have something that has been rolling around in my head for a while that is more than ready to jump out onto the page. This week, unfortunately, that isn’t the case. Life has been pretty busy lately both at home and at church and that’s caused my brain to be a little more scattered than usual. Maybe you can relate?
Even in the course of writing this week’s article my thought process took a few different turns. But here’s where I landed and maybe it will be encouraging to you. Today (Thursday) is Ascension Day. Now maybe you’re familiar with this day or maybe you’re not. It’s a special day of celebration historically in the Christian church that occurs forty days after Easter. It’s hard to believe that it is forty days after Easter already.
Read the full column in the May 13 Advance.
