My Art...or His Art

This past sunday, I was sitting in our college bible study, and the speaker said something that really affected me. What he told us was so simple, and I had heard it a milllion times before. He said, you need to give every part of your life to Christ. At first I was like, yeah, yeah, I've done that. After I thought about it for a while I realized that there are, so many things that I hold on to, and keep seperate from my relationship with Christ.

At first when I heard this I thought he was just talking to all the people who drink, party, and other things. Then I realized that its not just the bad stuff we need to give up and surrendur to him, its the good things too. Our talents, our interests, and things that are good! I think he was showing this to me that night.

During the middle of the study, a lightbulb just went off in my head, and I thought, I need to give my talent and love of art to Him. Later that night, I just prayed to God, and told him that he is the one that gave me my love and talent for art, and that I just surrendured it to Him! I told Him, that I wanted to glorify Him with it, and that it was His. I asked Him for oppurtunities to show my work, for inspiration, and for Him to lead me down the right path when it comes to a career.

I really want the work I do to be meaningful , and I know He will show me!

LOVE!
