This video is about an art project, in that the children in this class or in Shul scrape off the black crayon in order to see the magic underneath. In turn the title of this activity is called Black Magic. You see the child creates a beautiful picture underneath is black covering and in life as an adult we all can be covered with that same kind of shroud. When we discover the coloring and life underneath it bring us purpose to life. In this case the black we work so hard to scrape off ends up finding our own truth. Sounds to me like someone may be looking to go on a witch hunt and maybe to hurt someone. All that this video is trying to say is underneath our negativity forges a new hope of positivity. Even a five year old girl can teach any adult something about what this art project means relative to G-d's message. Any human being at any age can surely teach any one of us a lesson or two about the beauty of G-d's love.

Black Magic
How can such a term as "Black Magic" be so cloaked in innocence and used in an attempt to represent a deeper understanding of G_D? Those that practice "Black Magic" are in defiance of G_D and His commands. We are not to be like those who call good evil and evil good. To confuse the issues, especially in the mind of a child or to wittingly or unwittingly lead others astray is very dangerous. We must humble ourselves and pray and turn from our wicked ways that we might be forgiven lest we perish for lack of knowledge and have to give account for the others we have lead astray by our ignorance.
Exd 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
2Ki 21:6 And he made his son pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much wickedness in the sight of the LORD, to provoke [him] to anger.

Anybody knows
Children have the best ideas and have true awe of their own creation .I think maybe we as adults need to except the honesty of true appreciation. I need to try harder to talk less and admire more. I do need some classes of Black Magic.
