" God brings cosmos out of chaos."( from Walking On Water) It is an incredible affirmation of God's involvement with the "artist" in us.<br /> Even in our down time, our no time, our little time, HE is working in us the next project. She wrote phrases like this: " When the book begs to be written..or " Get out of the way of the book.:0) Think about it.<br /> The mulling over, pondering, stashing ideas, praying and then doing...All of it must have INSPIRATION!!! YEAH GOD!!!!<br /> Creativity will emerge---in word, color, attitude,music, blessing!!!!!!!<br /> Preparation is constant.<br /> That which is dormant is still alive--waiting.<br />One day I wrote what I thought was a graphically beautiful description of a sunset sky. I labored over it and then felt so pleased -- but then I read her words, " Get out of the way." I knew it had been too important so "I got out of the way" and minimized what I was to say with choice succinct words ( self editing)--rather than over embellishing. The results had a quiet beauty for God had removed me from it. She was right on!!!!<br /><br /> Yeah God!!<br />Have have a Blessed day in Him!<br /> Love you,<br /> BillieBillie Cashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16741669780978436805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2898903467914383938.post-7226967847231868082011-03-15T08:30:34.083-04:002011-03-15T08:30:34.083-04:00you are a breath of fresh air girlfriend.

Did you know that in writing here about your journey, you help me in mine? Well, it's true. I so relate to so much of this. The needing to slow down (hope you're feeling better!), the need for self-compassion, the time-organization issue, and the desire to unplug and really do meaningful things. I hear you. <br /><br />Thank you for being you and shining your light and joy out into the world and into my life. I adore your sweet spirit and generous heart. You. Are. A. Treasure. <br /><br />Love you.Happy Mama (Lisa Gonzalez)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09487231586577498381noreply@blogger.com
