Blank Canvas

 What do you see when you look at a blank canvas? Or a blank sheet of paper? Can you see the brush strokes that create a master piece? Do you see the lines to a great story that will be told by people all over? Can you see the end result looking at the emptiness? Will you be committed to the time and energy it will take to see this to the end? Will you one day look back with satisfaction about the art or story you created?

One of the most important elements of creating a master piece or a bestselling novel is inspiration. (I would imagine) Are you inspired? Some are inspired by pain, others by success and others by people.

2011 is here and is a blank canvas waiting on an inspired artist to paint a master piece. Or maybe for you it’s a blank sheet of paper waiting on a creative writer to tell a story. What will your 2011 look like?

As we think about this maybe we should seek inspiration from G-d the one that can see the end from the beginning. What would be His direction for us this year? He has a plan for you this year. He wants you to paint a picture with your life that will bring Him glory. He wants you to be a story of faith.

blank canvas (your life) + G-d = master piece
