		<description>Man, point three nailed me. I can see people everywhere having so much pride because of their talent and never give it back to the creator. Don't praise the created, but the creator. 

Max Lucado speaks about something similar to this idea. He says that we are instruments of God, but we all have to be on the anvil of God; where God molds us, fine tunes us and it can be a very painful place. It won't be fun, but take hope in the fact that God cares enough about you to put you upon his anvil so that you can be used in the way He has created you. I believe this goes right along with what you are writing about Brendan. We have been fine tuned and the only person we can thank for that is God. There are times that we will sound horrible, but as we learn and get molded we will begin to fill the purpose God created for us.

I love this post man, keep them coming!</description>
