God is artistic.
Absolutely!
The most creative
genius and imaginative artist of all is our God. Take a look around at all of
the examples of His creation. You’ll find charming, curious, and cute
creatures. You can gaze at sublime, spectacular, splendid, and even strange
scenes. And there is a beauty in it all.
God is the
aesthetic expert.
“He has made everything beautiful
in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom
what God has done from beginning to end.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:11, NIV)
How awesome and
amazing is our God? His artistry is beyond our understanding. Sure, we can hypothesize and guess and argue and try to articulate how He did it. But the truth is, He did.
Mankind is a
special gem among the creations of the Almighty.
OK, maybe you don’t
feel all that pretty today. Perhaps the mirror is adding a few wrinkles or packing
on some extra poundage. Maybe you're tired or sick or just sick and tired. Guess what. God thinks you are adorable. Who can argue with that?

HE is indeed! Nothing was created randomly, but by Master engineer. ~ I hope you'll have time to stop by my blog on this A to Z challenge where I'm Livin' Out Loud 4 Jesus. www.merriehansen.com
ReplyDelete:) I think that if we were created after His image, surely we inherited the artistic skills too - perhaps the reason it is called "God's gifts?"

ReplyDeleteYes, God is artistic. And this is the perfect time of the year to be blown away by all of the beauty he gives us on earth to see.

And to think that the vistas we so admire--rugged ocean coastlines, high craggy mountains, volcanic peaks with flowing lava or flooded craters--are all just remnants of a world ever more beautiful that was torn asunder by a global earth shattering flood! How much more wondrous it once must have been in its original artistically designed form.
