Ever have one of those days when it seems that every idea you have just seems bad.  You know, the days that there is more paper for recycling than left in the notepad to write on.  When your ideas become an ongoing game of hoops with the trashcan.  When you want so desperately to pour out idea after idea…or even just one good idea, but the only thing overflowing is the growing pile of papers around the makeshift hoop.

Yesterday was one of those days.  I tried writing several different blog posts.  I tried several different topics.  Nothing.  Well, nothing good at least.  I think that’s almost more frustrating that just not having ideas at all.  Nothing will make you wanna quit more than bad idea after bad idea.

But as I was sitting there tossing more and more imaginary paper balls in for bank shot after bank shot it hit me how amazing it is that God isn’t like that.  He isn’t just sitting around trying to brainstorm ideas for our lives.  We are not just a crumpled up wad of paper that He tried and failed with.  You were created out of love.  Perfectly made how He wanted to make you.  He poured Himself into you as a masterpiece of art.  If only we could always see ourselves through His eyes.

Maybe you are having one of those days like me that every idea is filed under “T” for Trash.  Maybe you feel like you only have those days.  No matter how much you fail today His love for you doesn’t change.  He still loves the amazing creation that He put together in you.
