Criticism and Competition

Related image


   Hey people! Super sorry for the late post, my life has been really busy and I've been having writer's block...or is it blogger's block? Anyways, I finally came up with an idea! So, you know when you draw (or paint) something, you are usually pretty critical about it? Or even worse, you are drawing (or painting) with someone and their piece is better than yours? Ya, I'm pretty familiar with that too. People tend to judge others, or even themselves or their things. Humans can be very competitive. It's in our nature. Along with our sin.
    In the Bible, Romans 3:10 says,
"As it is written: None is righteous, no, not one;"
    It's OK to be critical of your work, just keep in mind that it's your work. You can make it however you want and no one can tell you differently. Don't try to compare yourself to others either. If you think they're better than you, that just means they probably have had more practice. So be happy for them instead of pointing out everything that's wrong. (I do that sometimes!)
    Luke 6:41 says,
"And why worry about a speck in your friend's eye when you have a log in your own?"
    Now, I know that isn't exactly directed to drawing, but you can still use it in your life. That verse means don't point out all your friend's problems, first take care of your own.

    Welp that's all I have for now! See you at the next post! (Hopefully I won't take as long... XD)
