INSPIRATION BEHIND THE NAME OF THE BLOG


When an artist decides to make a painting, he "conceives" a picture. He then takes out the canvas, brushes and paint. After getting out all he may need, the artist starts picking out the colours and brushes he wants to use...then; he begins! Now, somewhere during the process of this painting he comes to the point where he decides to use a very fine brush to put in the some detail on the painting, but for some reason that brush just does not want to work...and having to finish the painting, the artist chooses another brush which even though it is not as fine (able) as the previous brush becomes a skilful wand in the hands of the artist, not due to the capabilities of the brush...no, due to the willingness!

Mat 22:14 for many are called, but few are chosen...

I believe this scripture does not refer to God having favourites and therefore does not want to choose some, but rather because some are consistently refusing God's grace and love to shape and mold their hearts.

Do you realize just how much God loves you...? He created the universe with words, yet He took the time to mold, shape and create you...this has to make you wonder; who is this God that thought of me before the foundation of the earth and if He thought of me, that must mean that I am worth so much in His hands...?

See, I have always been a very big dreamer...seeing myself amount to greatness, achieving the impossible and reaching the unreachable because I felt extra ordinary, like my life was not meant to be lived ordinary but that it was meant to stand out, make a difference and change history for generations to come much like all the beacons of hope in the bible. Having this in my heart, when I were to watch stories like Snow White, Cinderella and The Land Before Time I would hear the following in my heart Snow white - When your heart is good and your intentions pure, you will always triumph over evil. Cinderella - No matter what may happen in life and how many times you may be treated badly or not be noticed, there will come a time when people will see you for the princes that you really are and you
