Today's post revolves around this little sign that I have pinned to the wall of my music studio.
At first glance, it seems to appear as a lament that God didn't give me enough talent to be a virtuoso musician.
That's not the point of the message at all.
In reality, it's a reminder that He gave me a certain level of musical acumen and ability that is a basis on which I must be diligent to practice and hone my skills.
To a large degree, I have accomplished much of that. I may not be a virtuoso musician but I can hold my own in most band situations on violin, guitar, bass, and mandolin.
This sign reminds me that I still must be humble. It reminds me that there is still much to learn in my musical journey.
It teaches me that I still have the capability of messing up and making a train wreck of any given performance.
I thank God daily for giving me the ability that I posses, and in seeing that I put it to good use as best I can.
Cheers!
