Cleaning up the craft room..
Going through old works of art from my children's preschool years...
Tears come to my eyes as I reminisce
those sweet tender years
of babies becoming toddlers
toddlers moving on to preschool
expressing themselves through art
learning who they are.
How do I want them to remember me?
As someone who lives a sheltered life,
covering up who I am
just to keep the peace
while silently suffering inside
Or by being real. honest. even if it hurts.
really bad. even if it hurts us all.
Showing them what it means
to live as the people God created us to be.
Real. Whole. Complete in Him.
Unafraid to follow Him
and lead bold, adventurous lives.
To put their own original masterpiece out there
We are God's masterpiece.
Never hide it.
Never lose your art, children.
I love you.
