I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song yeah, and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but, now that it's done,
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

-your song, elton john

If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.

there are so much limitations to our abilities. if we fail to see it, we are ignorant and foolish. if we see it, we become cowards and fear to pursue. ignorance will drive a fool to their doom, but cowardice will make one stagnant. i want to be the brave discerned person, pursuing whats right, whats essential, whats simply sublime. till i know it inside out, till i know myself inside out, till i know others inside out. till what seemed impossible crumbles and i find truth.

.

draw when it seems insane, and drives me mad and blind. draw with that crazy determination to get every crevice in its place.

.

then study. my greatest fear, to make one's voice lost to mention it. but the only way to equip our heart mind souls is with knowledge. then we can fully defeat our fears no matter how many times they come at us. i don't hope to defeat it completely. if we have no fears, we have no soul that fear wants from us. we have no weaknesses, we are perfect. but thats impossible.

.

true strength come from God alone and our weaknesses only show his strength even more. God, give us that strength and do amazing things through us. not by us, but through us that the world will see and know that truly it is not by our own human abilities, or wisdom, by by our grace, mercy and power you show that glimpse of glory.

prayer of jabez 1 Chronicles 4:10

Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request.
