God is an Artist

    God Is An Artist

EPHESIANS 2:10 WEYMOUTH
10 For we are God's own handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for
good works which He has pre-destined us to practise.

Look around. See for yourself. God is an artist extraordinaire!

When we gaze at a beautiful sunset, or look at the infinitely
varied forms of life we find surrounding us, and realize that
God designed it all, it is easy to be impressed. God is an
artist. The most brilliant, creative artist ever to exist.

But when we look at our own lives and consider what God is
doing there, we tend to forget that God is an artist. He is
making something beautiful out of you and your life. You may
not see the beauty now -- you may not even see any design or
evidence that God is working -- but you will recognize it
someday.

God's intention for you is to be much more beautiful and
glorious than a sunset or a school of multi-colored fish. And
you will be! God will not fail.

"Wait a minute, preacher. I can see plenty of people that God
has failed on. They are anything but "beautiful and glorious"
-- inwardly or outwardly."

Yes... today. But God is not finished. Many great works of art
take a long time. Don't judge too soon!

SAY THIS: God is an artist and He is working on me. Go ahead,
God. Let's see what you can do.  I am happy to be a canvas for

Jesus, the great creator,  to work on.

CREATING ART IS MORE THAN TECHNIQUE




I was surfing Amazon this morning for a dvd father's day present and to get my free shipping I went to my wish list of art books........I came across this review from a person in Florida....

"I am a jeweler who does art shows and galleries. I collect a lot of jewelry books as they give me new ideas and different techniques to do things. This is single handedly the worst jewelry book I have ever read. The author is/was orginally a fiber person. It's obvious since her metalsmithing techniques are so poor. I'm all for using short cuts, but she never recommends a rawhide mallet to flatten metal and uses a hole punch to make holes in the metal. YIKES! The finished projects are on par with any elementary school art show."

It wears me out to read "puffed up" stuff like this but it will never stop me from CREATING art.. I am so happy I believe that creating is so much more important than technique and that bringing forth "art from the heart" is a joy.   It's fine to be perfect in technique but this type of attitude is what stops a lot of people from finding their creative side.....Do NOT be daunted by these comments.......Go forth and CREATE ART!!!!!!!!
