Getting Ideas

Read 1 John 1-5

1 John 1:1 "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;"

“Where do you get your ideas?” is a question writers are asked and a question writers ask each other. The answer is, we get our ideas from everywhere.

We might be reading the newspaper and something catches our imaginations. It might be we have an idea about the article itself or something in the article, a tidbit that sets the ideas flowing.

It happens when reading magazines, listening to sermons, reading book or movie titles, hearing snatches of conversations, in our dreams, and everywhere else. It’s when we stop reading, listening, or paying attention because we have gone on the journey of “what if.”
