fact, it brought immediate breakthrough! Right away God started to show
me ways this was going to bring victory in my life.
My life has completely changed since this breakthrough. I love creating and developing ideas, but my focus has shifted. My goal is to become more disciplined and develop myself into a person who is more focussed.
The other day I created an “idea box”. Now, whenever I get new ideas or visions I write them down and put them in the box. This is a simple and practical way for me to keep myself from spending all my time developing ideas. I leave the idea in the box and occasionally pray about it. Over time, the ideas that don’t need to be pursued I will toss, and ideas the Lord is breathing upon I will either develop or give away.
“A boy does what he wants to do in spite of what he needs to do. A man does what he needs to do in spite of what he wants.”
I still have dreams. I still have visions. But for right now, I simply want to “build the wall right in front of me” (blog coming soon about this). I want to do the thing that is right in front of me to do.
There are usually boundaries in art, and those boundaries help to create the beautiful finish.
