You, Oh Artist, See and Live

I had a dream this morning about an amazing artist.  He made jewelry working in metals.  He was so gifted.  At first I didn't like him because of some goofy reasons...I didn't even know him.  Once I saw his work I was amazed.  As I tried to prophecy and encourage him as to what his future had in store.  (I wanted him to know that his destiny was so beautiful.)  As I tried to tell him, he entered his workplace, and became the door greeter.  It was a place like Best Buy.  I shouted across the aisle but some floor person manager overheard what I was saying and seemed to purposely tell me to get quiet and leave.  The manager did not want his timid employee (the amazing artist) to get a vision or motivation to do great things.  In fact the manager type person somewhat delighted in knowing he had power over this person and didn't want to lose it.  Fear, insecurity, and lack of vision was holding the artist back.  I awoke from the dream indignant.

That artist needs to know how beautiful his art is and know how talented he is.  He needs to stop letting the managers of life intimidate him.  He is a visionary creating beauty from heaven.  Something the manager can't comprehend.

This is for you, for me, for the artists that God is calling out.
