The Gifts God Gave Us

Where does art come from? How is it delivered? How is it received? How does the brain "go away" while the artist works? Does time become a different dimension during that process?

The art, the delivery of it, the reception of it, the brain's occupation and time's dimension during the process are all gifts that God has given.

Arts come from inside a person and involves all parts human: heart, soul, mind, body. It is delivered with paint and other materials manipulated, with words written, with steps danced with or without music, with the scenes and accoutrements of a play, and with the tones and timbre of rhythm and musical instruments and voice. The brain goes to sacred places during the art process. Only God Himself, the Creator of it all, enables these creative messages from artists. The artists could be called the little creators.
Time expands when the manipulations and creations unfold, when the little creators work.

The art of the little creators in all their media can glorify Him who made them. Will you? Shall we? Must we? Yes, for the groundswell is begun. The wave of art and faith is building and we ride it because the little creators are hard at work, producing art that unbelievers can read with their eyes and their ears and their hearts, and they can begin to know God. That's what the gifts are for. These art works are sacred. Thanks, Creator God!
