when
I was still enough to listen
I heard Him say
"My beloved one,
you are My masterpiece
I have only begun painting
with vibrant colors
on the canvas
that is your life
each color
each hue
each line
has a purpose
times exist when the colors I choose
are of darker shades than
you would choose
the blending
uncomfortable
the lines
indefinable
you look for clarity
you look for explanations
you look to see the finished painting
O My beloved,
I did not create you to know all
understand all
see all
make sense of all
no -
I created you to be in relationship with Me
to trust Me
to know Me
to love Me -
knowing that I will continue
painting on your life -
each stroke of My
brush
bringing you closer to
the day of perfection -
when I return
or call you home
until then
live each day
under the rainbows of My grace
your colors
reflecting Me
for all to see"
