Earmarks of Greatness

Cynthia Herron Ministry 6 Comments

  1. Dreams big. Doesn’t settle for just a bite. Goes for the whole enchilada!
  2. Failure is not an option. Goofs, yes. Giving up, no.
  3. Recognizes talents and shares them. Realizes gifts and invites others to open them.

4. Ditches doubt and develops perseverance. Is passionate about a ministry and knows God will equip us with what’s needed to get the job done.

5. Has a positive mindset and a hungry spirit. Says “I can” instead of “I’d rather not.”

6. Envisions potential. Views the world as a colorful canvas instead of an empty palette.

7. Practices patience. Realizes it will take time to hone the necessary skills to master a craft.

8. Knows humility but possesses healthy self-confidence.

9. Draws inspiration from the Giver of life. Recognizes who instills greatness.

10. Honors God with his/her work and future successes because greatness isn’t happenstance. It’s been bought for a price.

    Hazel’s is such an inviting little shop. Interesting sign revealing the history of glass. Woe unto them who practiced that art in Venice! Rather harsh punishment, I’d say. I don’t have anything to add to your “Earmarks of Greatness,” Cynthia. Hope you had a nice weekend.

    Yes, this little shop at Silver Dollar City (family owned and operated Christian theme park) in Branson is one of my favorites. There is an actual glass-blowing area where demonstrations are going on continually. The shop sells all of their own hand-blown pieces, of course. And yes, our wk end was lovely. I pray yours was, as well. 🙂

    That’s something that’s a continual process, I think, Tanya. It may seem daunting at first, but we’re all just people putting our pants on the same way–one leg at a time.

    And yes, I go to the little glass shop every time we visit. The pieces are a lovely feast for my eyes! 🙂
