During my time with the Lord this morning, he have me a small word picture I'd like to share.
I struggle with writing and rewriting and sometime I work a piece to death. I go over it until I've nearly lost the original idea. Well, he showed me that when I do that, I'm like a mortician, trying to make the corpse look better and better instead of standing back and letting the Lord resurrect the piece. (There are times, however, we just need to bury the thing! LOL) Instead of going out and taking classes on being a better mortician, maybe we just need to learn to appropriate the power, the mind of Christ. Anyway, maybe this little personal epiphany won't speak to anyone else like it did to me but I just wanted to share it anyway. Blessings.
