My testimony is closely tied to my experience in theatre. Last night I had a realization while watching a dress rehearsal of my latest show,
Little Happy Secrets. I was wondering what my role had been as director. What had I accomplished? What good did I do? I felt very much like I wasn't needed for this project, like much of what was good had come from the actors and the writing, and I was the weak link getting dragged along with the production. I was feeling pretty down about my role with the show (although the show
is fantastic).
I realized that what I was doing to myself I often do to God. I get caught up in how "awesome" I am and what I can do "on my own." My pride gets me in the way from acknowledging the Lord's hand as the director of my life. I discount Him and give myself the credit, just as I did while watching LHS last night (discounting myself and giving the actors the credit).
How do I solve this??
