Like a sunset

Written after I looked outside and saw a beautiful sunset

Thinking about what I did today…still trying to process if today was a success…
I got to thinking…if it was up to me most of my days wouldn’t even come close…
I get the definition of insanity…trying the same thing over and over and expecting different results…
I get in a routine…a lot of days seem monotonous…

Since God gives us a masterpiece…each and every night…
What might it look like…if we use our gifts to try to paint a picture each and every day…
It’s hard for me to figure out…what it’s going to look like…
It’s a relief that I don’t need to know the ending…God’s got that under his control…

I take my brushes and sometimes I splatter paint…my mind is all over the place and it shows…
Some days I feel more collected than others…but at the end of the day it still feels unfinished…
Other days I try to continue what I started the day before…then I get frustrated when it doesn’t look the way I want…
The life of the artist…full of ups and downs…

I know in my life…I have a lot of colors to use…
I know that I have my set of brushes…You’ve placed at my disposal…
I need you to help guide my hand…as I paint these pictures with my words…
I find some days are tougher than others…to see the end result…
