A Nudge

Have you ever felt that silent nudge? The one that makes you restless like you need to do something now and not just stare at it? It’s not something physical like someone elbowed you. It’s like a burden and a desire at the same time. I have had that recently.

In the middle of all the hustle, the wondering what to do next, and how to accomplish my tasks after the weeks of blackout and cleaning due to the typhoons that passed, I felt a silent nudge that seems to be telling me to do this — yes, write in this blog. However, I have put writing in this blog for later with so much thoughts that has been stressing me including the mess in our house that I want fixed ASAP. There’s also work which I have lost momentum on and that kind of sucks. But, despite the worries and laziness with it, that silent nudge continues to tell me to “write…”

If you’ve been reading my blog, you’ll notice that the word “write” have been associated most of the time to “my calling”. Yes, in writing I have seen God’s call for me to influence, inspire and motivate a lot of people through my own personal reflections, thoughts, and whatever I am led to write. It’s more than work — for to be honest even working as a copywriter, speaker and mentor, and one of the directors for 10x Philippines has led me is for me a ministry. But there are times God would want me to do this — writing not for work or for a client but just to post a random thought in hopes one of you, dear readers will be able to get something he would want to tell you — and I pray I do deliver it well.

A nudge — a reminder I have something to do that I shouldn’t just stare or plan at but I should act on.

There are times I would think if writing in this blog is worth it and if it does reach the right people who may need what I am sharing, but despite that doubt I believe one day, someone would stumble upon what I write here and hopefully be blessed and reminded.

Dear reader, listen to that nudge. I now sometimes you may have doubt at what you are doing but take heart. The fact you know where you are good at, what you can do, and how you can serve and even influence others for the better (good and just and pleasing to the Lord), then continue. Be consistent. Be persevering. Be diligent. And take that nudge the Lord is giving you…
