Trusting the reason and purpose.......

Back in 2015 employees of my job were asked to bring in some of their works of art. I have been to Painting with a Twist and The Tipsy Paintbrush and created a few pieces of art. I cannot call them Works of Art because they weren't that great. The art was hung in the kitchen where we eat lunch just to brighten up the place. 

Recently we received new pieces of art to replace the original ones hung up. The staff member who gave it back to me said I should hang it up somewhere. I told her it was not my best work and I did not want to hang it up. She told me I should create what I am good at. I had been sketching phrases for a new piece of art. Saturday I was stuck in the car travelling for Kaitlynn's soccer game and it just all came together.

Since the first of the year I have been carrying around a book to help me put my thoughts on paper. I have been drawing a blank when I try to create and this really helps.These phrases came from our parish mission, songs I recently heard or phrases that just struck me. My true intention was to finish the design to hang in the kitchen at my job.

However when I finished the art I looked it over and a very special heart family came to mind. I can't tell you why. I had nothing to back this urge up. Something just told me to give it to them instead. So I turned my hotspot on while travelling down the highway and posted the art to the heart mom's facebook page.

The response was stunning. The family needed a pick me up and a reminder that they were not alone. As I read the heart mom's response I wanted to cry, I knew at that moment why I needed to send it to them. So many times I get the urging to do things and don't understand why. Very few times do I see why or understand why I am called to do these things. This time I did. 

Here is the piece of art I created. I can't tell you why it struck the heart mom to tears. What I do know is this family needs to be surrounded by prayer warriors. They need to be reminded to never give up, and trust that God has a reason and a purpose.
