What a joy it is to live the artist's life! Since I began working as a freelance writer, the Lord has opened my eyes and allowed me to enjoy the beauty all around me in fresh ways. Now that I have time to appreciate the Lord, people, nature, music, art, great writing, and all of the blessings I've been given, I experience so much more peace and joy in my spirit.
Sophocles wrote,
O for mortals, what
Power there is in songs,
What greatest happiness
That can make bearable this
Short narrow channel of life!
Life is a short narrow channel. Amazing people, music, art, writing, the beauties of nature, and most of all, God, make it worth living.
If you're a writer or an artist, what realizations have you come to as you have grown more introspective? In what ways have you drawn closer to God through the writing life? Please share your comments by posting here. Thank you!
