The answer may lie in something my daughter told me on Saturday during a failing artistic endeavor (I tried to PAINT for cryin' out loud): "Dad, you've just gotta get out of your left brain and into your right brain." My tax dollars are paying for her education, so I guess it's only fair that I benefit directly from the stuff her art teacher is spouting.

The question is really one of the nature of my human nature. I'm wondering why I actively and passively resist what I KNOW God is trying to do through my life ("in" my life is another matter altogether). I'm not ready to put those things out there for my quaint little bloggin' community to read, but I have a couple of ideas that I think would truly benefit the Kingdom of God and give Him glory on a larger scale than my own church ministry (which, frankly, would enhance what's already a pretty darn good scale)...they'll take a long time to get them accomplished and yada yada yada and it will involve some minor tweaks in work habits and blah blah blah...but my concern is that I'm almost paralyzed by the very idea of putting concrete action to get them started.

Apparently my left brain is kickin' my right brain's butt...

I wonder if my kid's art teacher has any advice for that.
