The "Artist" Hand

I saw this video this morning and although the song is really lovely it was the actions that the artist is taking while singing that seem to resonate with me.

As she sings you'll notice that she is cutting into the simple white pieces of paper with very sharp scissors. At times she seems almost to dig into the cuts and will the paper to bend the way she wants. Sometimes life seems to be the same way. As hard as we may fight the changes and the pain it can cause, the "Artist" our Heavenly Father, knows what beauty can come from the cutting away of what is needless in our lives and in the end we are left with a work of art. Waiting for the end result may seem difficult but I assure you it is beautiful:)
