Our chapel theme last week was "God is the sovereign creator of all things." To illustrate the point that creation reveals the nature of its Creator, I brought out a drawing that I'd done with my pastels earlier in the week. I'd taken a little drawing time after school one day, and I was pleased with the result. The picture communicated that I still possess some artistic talent.
I was compelled to explain, however, that in my case, my creation also reveals my limitations. Having had no training with pastels and little practice, my technique is poor at best. "This picture shows you a little of what I can do with pastels. There are a lot of things I can't do with pastels, though."
"Yeah," piped up a third grader. "like, you can't brush your teeth with pastels."
True. Not what I was attempting to communicate, but so true.
