Use your art to reflect the divine within yourself and others from "summary" of Walking on Water by Madeleine L'Engle
Art has the power to reveal the divine spark within each of us. When we create, we tap into something greater than ourselves, something that connects us to the Source of all creation. This divine spark is present in every human being, waiting to be awakened and expressed through art. Through our art, we have the ability to reflect this divine spark not only within ourselves but also within others. When we create with love and intention, we are able to touch the hearts and souls of those who experience our art. Our creations become a mirror that reflects back to others the beauty and truth that lies within them. As artists, we are called to be vessels through which the divine can flow into the world. When we open ourselves up to this flow, we are able to create art that is imbued with a sense of purpose and meaning. Our art becomes a channel through which the divine can speak to others, offering them moments of grace and inspiration. By using our art to reflect the divine within ourselves and others, we are able to participate in the ongoing act of creation that is taking place in the world. We become co-creators with the Source of all life, bringing into being new forms and expressions that enrich the world and nourish the souls of those who encounter them. In this way, our art becomes a sacred practice, a way of connecting with the divine and sharing that connection with others. It is through our art that we are able to glimpse the beauty and wonder of the universe, and to invite others to do the same. By using our art in this way, we are able to participate in a larger story, one that is filled with meaning and purpose, one that allows us to walk on water.
