Aloha

Aloha (Hawaiian for hello!) Around this time last year I was part of a team on the beautiful Hawaiian Island, Maui exploring leadership at a deeper level. One of our modules consisted in learning how to make the best use of Audio Visuals in our presentations. I was especially thrilled with the opportunity to learn about movies, hands-on, starting with story boarding, different types of shots, the rule of thirds etc. We then split up to 2 groups and I was made the film director of my group! I used to think the main character was the most important person in a movie, this conception flew straight out of the window almost immediately we started work. My Brazilian, Pakistani, Indian, Ghanaian, etc mates, didn't make things easy for me, but we finally came out with a beautiful script and I still get a hearty laugh watching my humble beginnings as a director of 'Fresh Fire' studios! Most important, I now understand the role of the director is key! it is challenging too. If actors decide to do their own thing, the whole thing becomes a mess (hey I am talking from experience!). The same can be said about our relationship with God. Jesus promised the Holy Spirit as our Counselor and guide, not just to face the challenges of this day and age, but also to make heaven. How many times however, do we go our own way, ignore His warnings and promptings? We want to be in control, 'clicking on ignore' until we are in some messy or difficult situation? I challenge you to sit down and evaluate your level of obedience to the 'Director'. Shoot a movie without a director, and you're guaranteed to have 'crap'! Isn't it high time you let go, and let God? Seek guidance from the One who should be directing your life. He has the master script and knows what is best for you.   Ke Akua (God bless) Inno   P.s…some shots from our movie can be found on www.forteh.blogspot.com     -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.associate.com/groups/practical for messages on being Practical.
