This is a great way for any artist to create out of the certainty of how she answers this question.
After a very long hiatus, I want to step back into the arena of connecting with creatives, artists, and writers. I am inviting all who are as Emily P. Freeman refers to in her book a million little ways–uncovering “the art you were made to live to tap into this blog for encouragement on their spiritual walk.
The long distant break was more of a time of discovery for me. How can I create the art I enjoy and connect it with the readers I hope to find.? What has God shared about His love for me? God has a very deep love for the art He is constantly expressing. That art is YOU That art is me.
I have an INTENSE question for you to consider.
Where does God fit into your creativity?
Do you ask God into your artistry?
Every item you put on paper, on canvas, on screen, before an audience of one or one thousand represents THE CREATOR. The items you present will express the ongoing relationship you have with The CREATOR, the One who gave you that gift in the first place. 🙂
I will encourage and challenge you to bring God into the center of your creativity. During most of the posts, I will invite you to take time and meditate on content. This is not limited to those artists who only specialize in what is considered “sacred” art. If you are a faith-based creative, you NEED His Love and Encouragement no matter what is flowing from you. I will go into more detail into a later a later post
Take in what you Receive, Reflect upon and Respond to it.
Presently I will finish out the Lenten Season with items asking you how you bring the deep, undeniable love God has for you into you daily life and your creativity. The choice He made to take all of your sins, my sins upon His sinless body so we could enjoy freedom.
Praise the LORD, my soul ….. who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s
Psalm 103:5
Thank you for joining me in this adventure. I have a Facebook Creative and Artists Devotional as well as a personal Facebook. All three of these areas are for you to express your artistic walk. We are all on this journey together.
