What This Is About

This morning at Sunday School I was able to one of the things that this site is all about. I saw some of the sketches one of the girls in our youth group did. I won't embarrass her by using her name, but I told her that I didn't know she was an artist. She told me she would like to be. Then I told her she was an artist. I said "You have paper, you have a pencil, you have talent. Don't let anyone ever make you think you are not an artist"
Now I'm sure that a word from me is not much to encourage a young person, I would never put myself on that pedestal, but I also know that a negative word could turn her away from what God's best is for her and I pray every day that I never be one to do that.
I can't now know what God's best plan is for that young lady, but the desire of my heart is that I be one who helps her find what it is. If we as older brothers and sisters in Christ do not do that, if we by our words attitudes or actions cause one of them to miss-step in the search for God's will, we should have a mill stone tied around our neck and be cast into the sea.
For His glory
