Bible Note: I like to think of all the lives that live on this planet now, as well as the past and present as God's mosaic. Each one of us has a very specific purpose in this mosaic. Our lives might be rather quiet and reserve or they might be loud and haughty. We might not have a relationship with God at all or hopefully we allow God's light to shine through our lives, our words and our ever action. It's all up to us just as in our Lord's parable about men with various talents. We all have great potential and can be whatever we choose to be. To benefit most from this perspective, we must allow the Lord be the Potter and we the clay. We should study His Word every day and be in a constant state of mind given to prayer. All we do must be seen to hold up our small portion of that mosaic and all the worries and burdens of the world should be given over to Him instead of our "obsessing" with them. Thank God for His Grace and love...He's even anxious to forgive if we'll just ask. Good question and God bless. |
