QUOTE : So what do you do when you are stuck?<br /><br />The first thing I do when I am stuck is pray. But I’m not talking about a quick, Help me Lord, Sunday’s a comin’ prayer. When I get stuck I get up from my desk to head for my closet. Literally. If I‘m at the office I go over to a corner that I have deemed my closet away from home. I get on my knees and remind God that this was not my idea, it was His…<br /><br />None of this is new information to God…<br /><br />Then I ask God to show me if there is something He wants to say to prepare me for what He wants me to communicate to our congregation. I surrender my ideas, my outline and my topic. Then I just stay in that quiet place until God quiets my heart…<br /><br />Many times I will have a breakthrough thought or idea that brings clarity to my message. . .<br /><br />Like you, I am simply a mouthpiece. Getting stuck is one way God keeps me ever conscious of that fact.
