A week ago, several of the deacons in our church came to my house to talk over a change we want to propose at our church. It involves property, mortgages, real estate, etc. We talked through three or four scenarios, came to a couple of decisions.
There I am sitting in prayer meeting tonight and it comes to me in my mind, a beautiful graph showing how one figure will change over time, and how other figures will change in relation to it, all working together to confirm what we decided. I jot down a quick sketch and show it to our pastor and one of the deacons who couldn't be there for the meeting. They see the concept immediately!
It will serve as a superb visual to help the people in our church understand what we're proposing.
Ah the spendor of just the right visual! Worth many thousands of words.
