It's unfortunate, because I can't do anything about it at the time, and I feel terribly guilty about not concentrating on the service. And then I get home and 90% of the inspiration is gone.How do you retain inspiration that comes at a time when you can't even take notes?
Leave the guilt behind and take notes.
ReplyDeleteYou never know when divine providence will strike. Besides, if anyone gives you a cross look tell them you're taking dictation from God.
Thanks, both of you! I do that sometimes, but I always get this sense of, "If you're putting your wrtiting ahead of the service, you're not worshipping God, you're worshipping writing."
ReplyDeleteGood times.
@Laura Hmm. My take on that is that God will understand.
ReplyDeleteI understand your niggle, but I agree with jamiegrove. I'm sure there's a reason why you feel inspired in church. Who cares what people think? Just don't use a dictaphone. That would be annoying.
ReplyDeleteInteresting post though. It's hard to know about these things sometimes.
ReplyDelete@jamiegrove, @notesfromaroom. Thanks. You're probably right. Heh, dictophone.
