If we want a family photograph or painting, we call a person with the gift of Artesian. If we need a tailor or hair cut, we call someone with the gift of Artesian. Although I sew, I don't necessarily have the gift of Artesian. I made my clothes and my children's clothes out of necessity. It feels good to create something from a scrap of material but I'm not as good as a person who designs fashions - they have the gift of Artesian. I take pictures but I get good ones because I have a really good camera. A person who has the gift of artesian can do it better than I can and they use a Manual camera. I cook a lot of really good things but I do not have the gift of Artesian. I asked Jesus to help me cook the things Al likes to eat and he has given me a lot of recipes. A Chief with the gift of Artesian has a natural knack for putting recipes together. Yes the gift is from God but it came natural and easy to him. I struggled until I asked God to help me become a good cook.
