Scripture
“And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.”

                                      - 2Corinthians 9:8

                                           Message
Think of yourself as an artist and your life as your canvas.   Your ability to bring forth art from real life is a gift every woman possesses. This is almost impossible to imagine when you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and frazzled.  But it’s certainly worth meditating on as we savor the last days of summer.  Coaxing a tired, hungry toddler to do what you need him to do at a given moment is a work of art.  So is helping a friend through personal crises, comforting an aging parent, or planning a birthday party.

Food for Thought

• Repeat, “I am a brilliant, gifted artist of the everyday”
• Give thanks for your personal gifts
• Offer your love, creative energies and talents to the person, idea, or project awaiting your attention
• When cooking dinner, experiment with the process of creating it.
• When you’re cleaning house, think of it as a way of expressing yourself.  As an act of worship that is part of your calling.

Prayer

Dear God,

May I have meaningful work and meaningful activity in my life.

I desire to wake up each morning and feel that I am used on behalf of                       something glorious.

Help me to remember that You are the power.

May my work be Yours

May my work be love.

May I go to sleep knowing that I did as I have come here to do.

                                              Amen
