English Medical Missionary
1865 - 1940
It is a privilege and honor to be an artist. We have an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of people. Creative leaders provide tremendous value to societies and the people who make up those societies. We entertain, inspire, inform and teach. We give hope when hope is needed.
Have you ever read a book that changed your life? Thank the author with all your heart for the hours he spent writing and rewriting that book. Have you ever read a novel that made you cry? Thank the author. Have you ever listened to a piece of music again and again because it calmed you down? Thank the composer and the musicians. Have you ever stood before a statue with your mouth wide open in awe? Thank the sculptor. Have you ever sat for hours in a museum studying a painting of a master? Thank the painter for sharing his talent.
Be thankful for the privilege of serving others — of helping to ease their pain. For giving them a few moments of laughter, joy and encouragement. For helping them bear the loneliness of living. For saving them from their thoughts of suicide. Creative leaders are seldom aware of the impact and influence they have on people's lives. If they did, they would be thankful every day for the gift they have been given.
