Inspiring and encouraging quotes for writers.
"That writer does the most for us who brings to our attention thoughts that lay close to our minds waiting to be acknowledged as our own. Such a man acts as a midwife to assist at the birth of ideas that had been gestating long within our souls, but which without his help might not have been born at all."

Tozer is talking about the "Yeah, that's right," moments I know so well. But not only writers perform that birthing function. God can use preachers to do that as well. I only hope I have that ability somewhere within me.
