  • Em'Cutting Words

    Oh the other verse to read, really cut me. Like a sword (hehe the Word of God is sharpen than  2 edged sword that cuts though flesh, mind and soul.) Sunday sermon was to use your talents. And I been going thought this redeeming state of mind. And well, the sermon about using what God has given you. If your a greeter be the best greeter, if your good at help cars park than do that, if your teacher than teach. Not to squender your talents. The ones with one talent tend to really spander. That not to do that. That we are the body of Christ and each has it's part. Let the hand say to the feet I don't need you, or the eye to the arm. Each person is valid and important in the kingdom of God. For if everyone was doing the same thing (alot people think being "called" means a pastor on a stage) our ecomony would not be. Even if your called to preach, you still need bread to eat. And wow, I've heard and met preachers that have some kind of business on the side or something (cafes, a book, artwork, or something). But still, back to the main points. That what ever it is we do, do it. And honestly I am still trying to figure out that part. Like what make me tick, or what is it that I do well.  You know if had your hands tigh behind your back. Sigh. Will the verse that got me cut was

     Zechariah 4:10 “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin…".

    So, I guess just start and keep going. I am like painting, and do realize it not a strength nor do the really look realist (that what I hope for them) but to just do them. Keep going. Perhaps over time skill may develop or something. If not. . . God help me. I spend a whole lot of money on art supplies the other day. Like hug chungs of my check is gone. Sigh. There's foolish and there's wise. It feels and looks very fool right, now with the art spending. Oh I just got a few  things (um 6 tube of paint). Sigh. I begin to watch clip of artwork for different  people, and I guest those thoughts came back of  "not good enough". Which goes again that quote on my screen. The quote basically says who are we to say to God that our talent is not good enought. Sigh. Yeah. Good, news I've done three paints in the past 2 weeks. So far the littlest one is my favorite. Which is funny cause, I when to a school where paint on bigger canvas is better. I like the idea of having a huge canvas. Yet, it the smallest one 5"x 4"ish that I favor out of the other that are over 24"+. Well I guess all more for this verse today Zechariah 4:10 “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin…"!
