August 4, 2017 www.PositiveChristianity.org presents Positive Daily Inspiration WORKS OF ART "Fear not, for I am with you and will bless you." Genesis 26:24 I'm in London England today, going to the museums. I love looking at artifacts and history. Great works of art are often considered priceless possessions. Every family has something that they consider great work of art. It may be their child's kindergarten drawing of a turkey. My parents kept such a drawing of mine for their entire lives. All it shows me, is that I do not have any skill in this area. When I am at home, I love to watch the Antiques Roadshow on PBS, and would love to take some of my items that I have saved for years to be appraised by them. It is everyone's dream to take some item that has been in an attic for 50 years and have it appraised at over $1 million dollars. In truth, I know that I don't have anything close to that, but the fun experience would be worth a million to me. I once stood in line almost all night long, outside the CBS Studios in California to be on "The Price is Right." I didn't win anything that time either, but the experience is priceless. Precious memories held in mind become works of art. Look at compositions of the Masters of music, that music has remained a hit for hundreds of years! Surely the beauty of the soul has been expressed in such works of art. Perhaps the greatest priceless possession is love, followed by health, followed by satisfaction, peace, and joy. These things in completeness are given by God. And just in case you haven't realized it know that you are work of art too. Even more than that, you are work of the Spirit of God. You are experiencing God's greatest gift – life itself. God created you, and only you, so you are unique and special. No one can ever duplicate or replace you. So whether or not the image you see in the mirror is one you think of it as a work of art, know that you are! If you have not considered the people around you as prized creations, take another look at them. As God's creation, every person is of irreplaceable beauty and worth. Would you describe your life as a work of art, or as a piece of trash? Would the Potter criticize the clay with a piece that is not yet done? During times when you are troubled and anxious, you can always turn to God and feel the loving presence of the Christ. The awareness of this presence strengthens your faith and helps you to meet life confidently. But it does even more. It can re-form a damaged life into a beautiful thing. You are never alone. You have the companionship of the Christ. You are loved. As you keep your mind and heart centered in the Christ love, you have a feeling of renewal that nothing can disturb. You are uplifted, sustained, and strengthened. You find true beauty in your mind through God's peace. Slowly but surely, your life becomes a work of art that only God could create. It is a true miracle. You will live in a joy-filled atmosphere and radiate that joy to others. Your life will shine as you express the love of God. God has inexhaustible gifts for you ready to be called forth at any time. You will have a life that is true, filled with lasting joy and happiness that can only come from a Divine source. God's gifts are just that-- gifts. A small investment will reap lifetime rewards, the time that you turn the God in prayer, and you consent and accept God's works in and through you. POSITIVE PRAYER FOR TODAY: Dear God, no matter what circumstance may arise, with Your help I do not give negativity a place in my thoughts. I now confidently release every situation to You and know that I need never doubt the perfect outcome.
