Among the many things that we did (which I'll share about in a separate post), the wives were able to get together and be loved on by Carolyn Wellons and Kimberly Pruitt, two women that mentored us during our year in Little Rock. We were each given a prism, which currently resides in my kitchen window. I thought I'd share this neat little object lesson with y'all.
Just like a prism, each of us has a unique shape, cut, and design. As the light shines through the prism, the various cuts and angles allow for the light to refract (thank you 8th grade science class gelatin/lightbox project), creating rainbows around the room. The prism will only create these brilliant colors when in contact with light. Similarly, we need to be in constant contact with God if we are to do ministry well. God will be glorified through us only if we are in constant communion with Him. And when we are, God works through us and our unique design to create ministry results that are beautiful and unqiue. Thanks, Carolyn and Kimberly, for this convicting encouragement to me!
