For those who don’t know “where I stand”
My Motto, Belief, Guide, Prayer, & Goal
Motto:
For years & years, I have very often told students, “There are no mistakes in Art. Only mistake is wasted time & talent.” That’s how I see art and life. Don't waste it.
A verse I claimed as mine when I
accepted the Lord’s Gift of Salvation as a pre-teen is
Colossians 3:23,
It is a
guide
for my life: I
believe whatever we take on in
life, whatever road the Lord leads us up, whatever choices we make, … we are
commissioned to give it our all, and to do it for Him, His Glory, … not to
impress “man”.
My prayer
is that students will belong to the Lord, seek His Will for their lives, follow
it with His Guidance, and do it in the fashion He has indicated in His Word –
wholeheartedly, for Him.
To that end, I have been led to offer instruction/opportunities for young, teen, & adult students -- especially homeschooled students.
I
believe
in The Trinity as One True God, Creator of the universe and life. I
believe in God the Father, Jesus God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. I
believe in God’s Holiness, Righteousness, His Plan, His Redemption/Gift of
Salvation, His Love, His Promises, His Word, ….
I’m thankful that at 12yrs old,
two men came to our home to share God’s Word with my daddy. Upon hearing the
Good News, my father there & then knelt to his knees and accepted God’s Gift.
I’ve never been more touched. Nothing has ever so impressed upon my heart as that moment
in time. After hearing the Good Word, while alone that evening I ‘chatted’ with God
about His Plan of Redemption, repented and accepted His Gift in the dark quiet
of my room. I’m thankful to have heard the Word, felt the Spirit, and to have had
that opportunity to accept Jesus Christ’s Salvation. I’m thankful to have had such a
powerful spiritual leadership as my dad to guide me in my walk with Christ throughout my
teen years, that led me to a strong relationship with God through adult
years. I’m thankful to have celebrated my 50th redemption-birthday in His
family March '11.
My attempt, my
goal
in life is that all
decisions in my family, art, business, and personal life be Guided by The Lord. He
can make even our ‘bumble’ into good. If it is His Will, He will make possible
the impossible. I don’t want to be the deciding factor in whether you choose to
join in the fun of these classes or not. He Knows best. Let Him Guide.
Be part of His family. Be blessed
in Him. May His Will be done.
