Recognizing The Gifts & Tallents Of Others…

November 9, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

There are principles within every instrument that must be understood in order to maintain the tune. Within every instrument that is born we all learn to play as we learn to listen. The object is to allow each instrument to develop in their own timing and not try to force them in ours. Learning to teach with God directing the way allows us to discover the journey of change and being open to learn what works for someone else rather than the way it may have worked for us.

It is easy to allow our traditions to blind us when we get out of tune from God’s Word and forget who is in control. Sometimes we allow traditions to get in the way due to following everyon else instead of insuring the steps of our own. This lesson was taught in Luke 2 with Jesus’s parents as they followed the people and left Jesus behind.  His parents had to re-track their steps back for three days before they finally found Jesus in the temple. They tried to pull Him out but little did His parents know the music that was being played to the elders who chose to listen.

Learning how to listen and recognize the development and talents of each individual around us should be teaching us how to work together as one without trying to change someone else’s individual tune. The music is love and the instruction comes in time as we learn to teach in ways that others can relate with no debate. Enjoy this awesome video of a three year old prodigy child playing the piano  and how his mother looked for creative ways to teach her son. She did not discourage him due to his age nor did she discourage him due to the lack of his education. She simply recognized his own gift and discovered a way to further the development of these skills.

The object in teaching is learning the hearts of others and then learning how to capture their interest in creative ways to deliver the lessons to be received…Like the 3 year olds mother states in the video her son is driven more to play on his own than when being pressured by others… Here is the link to this creative teaching lesson  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ygzf709CmI

Can You Hear The Music Of God?

January 14, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

 How many times do we read something without taking the time to really hear what is being said because we are too stuck in the physical and miss the message in the spiritual. God wants us to stop and listen to our hearts without allowing the world to distort the message. The Lord speaks in many different ways yet man does not perceive it simply because they have never learned how to stop and recognize the spiritual messages before them. Here is a message the Lord placed in my spirit and I pray that you will take your eyes off of the deliver to receive something from the Giver… 

 Our character traits are like keys on a piano when you really think about it!  If we only learn one way then how can we expect to learn the art of living? There is a balance to stay in tune along with certain lines to not cross.  But the important factor to remember is if we miss a certain note or child, then that trait may struggle or possibly never be developed.  No one can play the perfect tune due to each individual has a difference. But what matters is the common ground in which we all stand and learn to love what God has given each of us in this land. 

  Learn the character traits to promote growth and watch the music of your child come to life.  Because there is nothing more gratifying than the love of a child looking up to it’s parents.  This is what the Lord enjoys when we focus on Him and learn how to live each and every day.  The Lord rejoices when He hears and sees the music of true love on our hearts.  So as you develop your character, don’t overlook certain keys because you never know when we could get knocked to our knees. It is crucial to know our children and realize that our lives guide their future. 

 There is only one Perfect Father and one Perfect Son who taught us the meaning of two being one.  Life does not stop with us and we have already been given everything we need so search the Word of God and learn to follow Jesus’ lead.  (To God All Glory, Amen)

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
