You: an Artist. Yes, You!

“A person who works

with their hands is a laborer;

a person who works with their hands

and their mind is a craftsman;

but a person who works

with their hands, brain, and heart

is an artist.”

— St. Thomas Aquinas

“Don’t just do the minimum that will get you by,” says Colossians 3:23.

It rolls on through verse 25, advising and reminding and warning us, “Do your best.

“Work from the heart for your real Boss, for God, confident that you’ll get paid in full when you come into your inheritance.

“Keep in mind always that the ultimate One you’re serving is Christ.

“The sullen servant who does shoddy work will be held responsible.

“Being a follower of Jesus doesn’t cover up bad work.”

And THAT is quite a paragraph in Colossians 3:23-25…amen?

“A person who works

with their hands is a laborer;

a person who works with their hands

and their mind is a craftsman;

but a person who works

with their hands, brain, and heart

is an artist.”

— St. Thomas Aquinas
