What are you painting today ' says the Lord !
What ? I am not a painter , what
do you mean ?
Do you love color ?
Do you enjoy fresh clean sheets ?
Yes , Lord , but that is not painting !
Think again , my child
Your home is like a painting to me
Your home is like a painting to your
family !
So I ask you again !
What are you painting today ?
But , My Lord , I am really
not a painter !
Every time you straighten up your
bedrooms ; you are beginning to
paint your home.
Every time you begin to do the
dishes ; you are painting a
beautiful painting for me and
those around you !
Lord ' you mean when I am
sweeping my floor ,
I am painting ?
Yes ! very much so !
I am the first one that
will see how you make
your first stroke of paint
on your page.
Lord , what about doing my
laundry ? Do you consider that
art work ?
Yes ! Look around !
A good painter will
vision his scenery ;
he will begin to place
his paint brush , ever
so gently on the page.
The painter always
loves to think of colors
and how to mix the colors
together !
But , my Lord ! What does
that have to do with my
house and daily chores ?
Your home is a place where
the most important people ,
whom you will ever meet , are in
your presence. Your family are the
most important people , whom
you should always hold on ,
and give your attention to.
Lord ! Are you telling me ,
that I am painting my home
for my family ?
Yes , my child ! But much
more ! You are painting
your home for me !
I see your home daily and
many things draw my attention
to . It's not only your physical
work , but your emotional and
spiritual well being as well !
What are you saying , my Lord ?
What you place your
ears to hear , and your eyes
to see , are instruments
that must be taken care of on a
daily basis.
Your ears are the color of
"yellow" It's being aware and
listening to those around you ;
such as a caution light.
Try not to be lacking in
your "attentiveness "of
your families needs and
those around you.
When you listen to sound
and music ; what kind of
signals are they producing?
Are the sounds soft and calming
or loud and scattered ?
But ' Lord ! Sometimes I need
energized !
Yes that is fine , however be
careful of what you choose for
your setting .
-------------------------
Your eyes are the color of
"blue , green or brown"
It's seeing the great
beauty all around you ;
such as the ocean , trees,
and the sky !
Who is that beauty , my Lord ?
You are ! " Yourself and your
family !" They are the greatest
beauty of them all !
--------------------------
But one of the greatest
instrument's of all is your
Voice . the color of "white."
Your voice is like the
background of the artist
page. It's the important
piece that keeps your
painting all together !
It's the platform that
your eyes , and ears ,
depend upon.
What do you mean , my Lord ?
Your voice sets the tone for
the rest of the body to receive.
A good artist knows that his
background is the important
piece that balances his artwork.
What does that have to do with
my voice , my Lord ?
Your voice and how you choose
to speak ; carries out the
rest of your body !
The tone in our voice can bring
forth fear and pain or on the
other hand ; happiness and joy !
Maybe it's the way people speak
to their spouses , or discipline
their children. Our voices helps
to keep our ears, and eyes in
balance of our everyday living !
Please , explain that Lord , to me
better !
A good artist always knows how
to capture his art piece.
The scenery will be placed in
given order. The artist has to
know his colors to mix and the
brushes to use . An art piece often tells
a story and there will be something
unique about his or her style.
The people looking at the art piece, will
be astonished or amazed ! Maybe the
artist doesn't always paint beauty , but
always shows character of something or
someone.
The artist tries to tell a story to his
audience through his or her painting.
Lord ! Are you telling me , that
my house tells a story ?
Yes ' my child !
Your house is part of your
soul ; so to speak.
It's our actions we give towards
others , and it's our voice that
sets the stage.
If we appear to be standoffish or
disengaged of those around us , it
can cause pain , loneliness, and a
sense of feeling unimportant. If
neglected , our house becomes
uncared for and broken.
Our ears, eyes, and voices are what
sets the tone for a successful and
prosperous home. They also bring
forth concern for others needs
and wants.
If a person is always feeding their
soul into grim , sad, and darkness,
their home will become dull and
non-vibrant.
So , I ask you my dear child of mine
"What are you painting today !"
Oh ' My Lord ! My answer will be
"My Love."
I will begin to paint my home
today !
May you hold on to your
paintbrush and gently
paint your picture ,
my child ' I will be
your guide +++
