Remember--the root word of humble and human is the same: humus: earth. We are dust. We are created; it is God who made us and not we ourselves. But we were made to be co-creators with our maker.[1] --Madeleine L'Engle, Walking on Water

Bear, believe, hope, endure. May it be so in us. May it be so in me.

What if you began to see your art as something other than your idea? What if it was less lofty and more necessary to your daily rhythm? What if your art is part of a bigger picture, part of a daily grace God has in mind for someone else?

The waiting can drive us mad if we let it. It can become a merciless dictator, shoving us into shapes we aren't made for, shapes of worry and doubt and short tempers. But the waiting can also grow us, shape us from the inside out for sacred work. This is a kind of work that happens only in the secret place of abiding in the presence of Christ even in the midst of broken dreams and tired circumstance.

Jesus says his load is easy and his burden is light, but he doesn't say there isn't a load or a burden.

You are designed to reflect the glory of God, and when you release the fullness of who you most deeply are, we will see God because we're finally seeing you.
