A young mother decided to take her son, who was just learning to play the piano, to a concert at Carnegie Hall by one of the greatest pianists of all time—Paderewski. During the intermission, she suddenly realized her son was gone. He had like he had done so many times in the past, become bored and went off to explore. She became frantic and as the house lights begin to dim for the second half of the performance, she hears the familiar notes of “chopsticks” being played on the grand piano on stage. She looks up and there is her son at the magnificent Steinway grand piano. The crowd is aghast. She is mortified. But suddenly the great Paderewski appears and sits down beside the young boy and tells him to keep playing his simple song. With his right hand he reaches around the young boy and adds the high notes and with his left, he adds the low notes and together they play a beautiful song that transforms the entire hall!!! We are all like that small boy surrounded by the arms of God. We need to lean back and trust in God’s power and glory and create a ministry that will transform the world where we have been planted. What is your excuse?
