Love this. Worth a read.” We are the artists, and ultimately we call the shots.”If there is a single thing I believe, the above line from Today’s Thought says it all!!If, when you see the word God and recoil, get over it. Replace the word with anything you can accept, BUT ACCEPT YOUR NOT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE”!! What ever it is, it’s not YOU.No other person paints the picture that is your life.

Are you creating the picture you want? Does your canvas convey a life of fulfillment and growth? Or does your canvas convey chaos and despair? You are the artist; God is your co-creator. Together all things are possible. But when we mistakenly believe that other people control our destiny, we end up feeling bitter and hopeless. In truth, we’re in partnership with a Higher Power, or whatever you choose to call it. I call that power God. We make the initial decisions; God carries out our plans. God could not render our lives what they are without our assistance. We are the artists, and ultimately we call the shots. I invite you to consider a different perspective. This may not be easy to swallow if you are a struggling single parent, someone who has just lost a job, or someone facing other tough circumstances. You’re invited to first see whether you played a part in where you are. And the best news you can give yourself is to say yes, because if you played even a small part, there is something you can do to change that canvas of your life. But if you played no part whatsoever, then you may be waiting forever for someone to change the course of your life. And that could be a very long wait. You’re invited to be your artist.
