Sometimes, when I sit down at my computer to write, I draw a blank. I don’t have any new ideas, and the thoughts jotted in my notebook feel flat and uninspiring.

Whenever that happens, I type a phrase at the top of the page and start writing. I find inspiration while I am working. There is no grand epiphany with lights and thunder. There is simply a phrase that makes sense, and I delete everything and use that one piece to build my ideas around.

This principle extends beyond writing. Suppose you are looking for ways to serve the Lord and trying to find precisely how God wants to use you. Then my advice is to start somewhere. Your first attempt at ministry may not be successful, but it may open the door to new possibilities.

Creation starts with doing. Purpose reveals itself through movement, not contemplation. When you feel stuck, remember that being at a blank starting point isn’t a limitation but an invitation. Every path is open, every possibility waiting. The only requirement is to begin.
