The Next Thing Unlike the Last Thing

So, it's Friday and I promised that come Friday I would explain what my next blog endeavor would be. If you have been following along for the past 8 months I have been working my way through the Psalms and as of earlier this week that particular journey is accomplished.

In light of that I was left with two options: 1) take a blog break 2) pick something else to do.

I came to the conclusion that I would take option 2, but then I was confronted by more options: a) follow another book of the Bible [perhaps Proverbs] b) look at different scriptures throughout the Bible [like I did with my Red Letters, Black Letters posts] c) do something that was not Biblically based.

I came to the conclusion that I would depart from my comfort zone and take option c, but then I was left with a decision about what, if anything I would use to guide me along my next path. Which led me to a book a purchased several years back with the idea I would start using it at the time, instead I wrote one entry. So, without further explanation [it's been enough, hasn't it?] I will be working my way through a book that looks like this

While this will not be Biblically based I assume that God and Godly things will pop up from time to time, its a part of who I am, no getting away from that, believe me, I've tried.

As far as timing I am not sure how often I will be posting. My thought is that it will be at least weekly, and perhaps even bi-weekly, we'll see how it goes.

One last thing before I leave you, a title. If you don't know, I like titles, I often come up with a title for my sermons before I come up with any of the details because a title, to me, leads me in the direction I want to go. I tossed a few around for taste, From the Ether and Out of Dusty Corners, but I landed squarely on one that brought a smile to my face. This is beginning from a book on writing prompts, but what writing is, at base, is creation and I firmly believe that when we engage in creation we become closer to the Creator.

So, welcome to Prompting Creation.

See you soon.
