Friend or Foe

“The best way to destroy your enemy is to make them your friend.”

– Abraham Lincoln

We all struggle through this world together. We can choose to be greedy and have an every-man-for-himself attitude, or we can decide to be our brother’s keeper. Either way, we live and then we die. What we do in the middle is the important part. Here’s another good quote:

You are either part of the solution, or part of the problem.

– Eldridge Cleaver

I try my hardest to be a good person, because I know that’s what God wants me to do. However, I still have a tough time being a steward of God. People sometimes annoy me and I know that’s wrong.

For instance, I struggle with people who do not acknowledge when I open the door for them. This is a true test of faith. I know that God wants me to continue to do it, because I am doing his work at that moment. In fact, he wants me to smile and let them know I do it because I love them like he loves me (which – sorry, God – I can’t do it because I may be arrested). I know he’s happy with me just opening the door for now.

I am working with an amazing doctor who is currently writing a children’s book. His name is Dr.E. I am confident it will help some of those in need and I am proud to be a part of it. Some of the stories I hear are regarding young children. Most of which have known virtually no childhood to speak of. I could not imagine what it’s like going through this, or in Dr. E’s case, being the person who has made a career out of helping these individuals. God bless them all.

Today was about as close as I ever came to NOT posting a sketch. I spent the better part of the day in bed. Feeling crappy with nice weather outside just sucks. Anyway, this is a five minute get-one-done sketch. I hope you enjoy it.

I judged a scholastic art show tonight with two other accomplished judges. I was blown away by the display of talent from the children. It was nothing short of inspirational.

I was going to put a bowler hat on this guy. I wanted to look more human than dog. I changed my mind at the last moment. I still think he looks more human than dog anyway.
