Let's take art for example: visual art is so obvious: singer, sculptor, painter...easy to identify.
But what we're looking for is the 'soul-art' (p.19) the art that is practically invisible because it is so NOT obvious.
We make art with our lives (p.21) says Emily Freeman.
Every smile, every hug, every load of laundry - soul-art.
I REFLECT about what I know:
I was created by a Creative God
in His image
He spoke creation into existence
He breathed life, literally, into man
His Spirit lives inside the believer,
connecting
created to Creator.
So I DWELL on this:
what is the difference between this creative art and this soul art....
and I am given the conclusion of YHWH - yes, just that, His breath.
The difference between the two are His breath.
Can creative art be Soul art? Absolutely.
But it is not turned into SOUL ART until it touches HIS BREATH and
LIFE. is. BREATHED. into. it.
Paintings are painted, books are written, dances are danced,
dinner is made, laundry is folded, a smile is given,
a child is born.
All is art when connected to the Breath of GOD.
Created by the Creator,
reflected by His image (me & you) through the Holy Spirit, making VISIBLE the invisible
by connecting Spirit to SPIRIT
all to the Glory of
ONE. Awesome. God.
So now I LIVE it:
I dig deep to find the art, the God-breath I've been given, by the Creator.
That is my plan: to find His plan, wait for Him to breathe on it, and
Spirits-united make His ART.
Reflect. Dwell. Live.
