This blog is a bad idea. You aren’t a good enough writer. No one will like it. No one will care. You will just sound dumb and weak. This isn’t going to change anything. What’s the point anyway? It’s not like there is anything insightful enough to help anyone here. You are just wasting time you could be spending in other ways. Why go through the trouble? No one is listening.

So, that’s what’s been rattling around in my brain as I’ve worked on this blog. Every time I enter a new post, those nagging voices inside (figurative voices, not really HEARING them, so no worries) just keep poking holes and planting doubts. Usually, I’d let it get the best of me and just shut down, but the more I hear the voices, the louder they get, the more it feels like I’m doing what God is asking of me. I don’t fully understand it, the point of it, the ultimate destination, but it’s obviously bothering Satan enough that he feels it necessary to try and dissuade and deactivate me. That’s enough validation that I’m on track and should just keep pushing, keep posting without fear or expectation, but in complete obedience. So, voices, you can shut up now. No one is listening.
