A Picture of Truth

Years of my life I spent captive to sin. Truth is what freed me from the bondage, from my suffering. I knew from early on in my redemption that being honest and transparent is how God would use me to speak to others. As time passed, this has become easier. That is, when I am working on my own cavas.
I have sought truth in the Bible, in prayer and meditation. And God has spoken truth to me through the lips of godly men and women who He has put in my path. These things are the medium with which I paint my life now. The black pigment has bled from the white paint and gray has taken the proper place on my palette. It no longer dominates the landscape.
I stand back and gaze upon the beauty God has brought to my life. Then I feel foolish for thinking this is my masterpiece. It is His painting.
