God Thinking LXX - The Parable Of The Painting 9

"Before I go to the fifth truth that I am going to incorporate in my life, so that I will never be defeated.

Let’s go back to our parable for just a moment.

·                 You are painting a picture

·                 Life is the canvas

·                God gives you the tools; the palette, the brush, instruction and             an endless supply of paint to work with.

·                 God teaches you how to paint. 

·                 He doesn’t leave you on your own. 

·                 God co-paints with you, but God does not paint the picture.

Many believe that because God is sovereign that you have little to do with your destiny.  But that is just not true.  You have everything to do with your destiny.  Don’t let this moment pass you by.  If you have never submitted to God and joined together with God to fulfill His plan in your life, do it now.  You have no idea if tomorrow will offer you the same perfect moment as today.

  You have everything to do with your destiny.

You can reach that goal.

You can have that vacation.

You can buy that house.

You can see your children come to the Lord, every one.

You can win that tournament.

You can get that new motorcycle.

You can have peace in your heart.

You can build that fitness center.

Just get out the paint, ( God’s tools) and start painting.  Paint over that old picture. 

Have you been waiting for the right time to paint your picture?

Have you been waiting for your spouse to paint your picture?

Have you been waiting for your boss to paint your picture?

Don’t wait.  If you don’t paint it someone else will and when/if someone else does, get out some new paint and share with God what’s on your mind, and let Him show you how to paint it right.

Paint over the marks and mistakes. 

Get some fresh paint and get to work. 

Know you can with God’s help and with God’s tools. 

Begin to paint what you want to see the rest of your life and you will never be defeated."
