Journal entry:
Not Mine Alone
What I have done is
Not mine alone to claim, but
A gracious gift of
God’s total magnificence,
He made of me what I am.
I could never hope
To accomplish anything
Without the aid of God
For I am weak and lowly,
Not given to great success.
I am reminded
My talents are gifts granted
Me to help others
And further the work of God’s
Kingdom in our troubled world.
Any accolade
I may gain is shared with God
Because He guides me,
He is my life’s salvation,
To Jesus be all glory.

Photographs:
This is the photo that won the honorable mention. Its title is “A Writer’s Tool” and it was taken at The Old Douglas County Courthouse Museum last Saturday.
I am grateful:
1. I went to the Sweetwater Camera Club meeting last night.
2. I entered three photographs in the contest, and one won honorable mention.
3. I talked to the president of the club and am going to be learning to do the page in the local magazine.
4. I cleaned out the truck today.
5. God is my constant help and blesses me beyond my dreams.
I hope you have had a remarkable Friday. I know you are gifted with talents that you may not even imagine. I urge you to engage your creativity and make something wonderful. Even a sentence can express greatness, or a simple photo. Give yourself permission to use your unlimited imagination. You have so much to share with the world.
As a prompt explore your relationship with your talents. How do you feel about them? What can you do to increase them? Is there a particular practice you use to ignite your creativity?
