Quote: A great street sweeper
If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep the streets even as Michelangelo painted or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, “Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.” ~ Martin Luther King

Cyndi,
Great quote there. I’ve heard the statement “If you’re called to be a missionary, don’t stoop to be a king” I also agree with your image there “Worship is Life” By the way, I think we’ve hit our ten posts now. YAY!

Yes, I just emailed Christina about the big ten. Yay!! That makes us official :)
Back to the quote: I love your quote as well. Our first-born son is full time in an orphanage in Guatemala. He went for the summer, after his first year of college, and didn’t come back. He was (and still is) an extremely talented computer geek with an entrepreneurial bend. And now he has no income. And he couldn’t be happier :)
