What if God used a different
palette when painting the picture of my life?
What if He used a different
brush or painted with shorter or broader strokes? What if God chose water colors instead of oils or what if He picked a massive canvas instead of a tiny piece of cloth?
What if God selected a
different instrument to play the melody of my life?
What if He picked a string
instead of a woodwind or a drum rather than a trumpet? What if the song He wrote was a ballad and not a march or a ragtime tune or was in the key of C rather than G…
What if His song for me had no lyrics at all?
What if God wrote a sonnet
for the poem of my life? Not a limerick, ode, verse or rhyme, but a sonnet.
What if the poem had only
three words? What if it had three thousand?I spent an eternity wondering how my life would different if painted in a different color, sung in another key or written a different way.
Then it occurred to me
God’s art is perfect
And the beauty of my life is you.
