Hi, everyone! It's quite a hectic week for me having to finish 3 DT cards together with all the usual responsibilities with my family at home, at Church and with friends too. But things needed to get done and I can only thank the Lord Jesus for providing me the strength to keep up with all these responsibilities and commitments. Many times, I ran out of ideas or there are also days where I wanted to do a lot including trying many techniques that it all clashes in my head...LOL In those times, I simply let go of all the stress, breath for a moment and utter a prayer---"Lord help me create something nice today." And as I begin to gather my materials, things are coming to my head little by little. I don't picture my creation until materials are put away and mess cleaned up, then, I set my finished project in front of me, appreciate how it came about and thank the Lord for everything---Yes, everything! The Bible says:
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." (John 15:5)
That's why in everything I do, I give God all the glory. Come to think about it, if I am not feeling well, then, I will not be able to do anything. If I don't have eye to see, then it would be interesting to put together a detailed work such as this and many more reasons I will not have the space nor the time to share here. Even the air I breathe belongs to Him...This is the very reason why it is important for me to give Him all the glory. I am simply a vessel for the Almighty God to use and give glory to His Name.
