I received a note from one of my High School (over 30 yrs ago) ART teachers who evidently knew back then, even before I did, that the creative spirit of God had taken hold in me and was moving in my life! She recently saw a Newspaper article about me that prompted her to write me and her correspondence was surprisingly like cold water to a thirsty soul. I had a visceral, emotional response to her words and even welled up with tears. The following is an excerpt
“…I was overjoyed to read about your successes and view your portfolio. I must tell you I am not surprised by your strong compositions, nor that your multi-talents cause you to move from medium to medium. I remember you as the creative, artistic young lady in my class whose art permeated her existence. Just wanted to wish you well and tell you I’m proud and thrilled you are following your passion…”
My Prayer: Thank you Lord God, for supportive teachers everywhere for all students, and I thank you especially for the ones that have influenced me, and believed in me when I wasn’t even looking. Amen!
