" What am I suppose to do", I said grumbling to myself . Sitting on the couch with the fireplace crackling I gazed through the big glass windows of our house. The day was cloudy and cold with rain drops running down the glass. It was a Sabbath afternoon after church and I was bored. I wasn't suppose to use my phone that day because I had been grounded and I didn't feel feel like painting, so there I sat thinking. A thought passed my mind that I could take video of me speaking about the Bible, and it sounded pretty fun! I started writing my script that evening. I was no professional, but in my heart I knew God was helping me greatly, and would keep helping me. The script was ready and it was time to film. I had set up a little homemade studio by our dining room window. I had gotten a big white bed sheet and hung one end of it on an old metal hook that someone had pounded in years ago. Satisfied I went to go and find something to set my phone on to start recording myself. Finding no camera stand that would work I took a tall barbers chair and set it on pillows to get it to the right hight. Chairs were moved and finally my little studio was ready. Waiting till my family had gone to bed for the night, I started my filming. Time after time after trying but failing to make a video I would make my way to the phone and start it over again. My heart began thinking the thoughts of "Maybe this isn't my thing and Why can't I get this right!" Stopping the video I bowed my head and said a prayer, " God,I need your help, please help me." With a weak smile I tried several more attempts until I was satisfied with the result. Now a couple months later I'm still making these videos and trying to get good results with Gods Help. Its not easy, but with God anything is possible!
