YOU ARE AN ABSTRACT PAINTING
"Abstract art uses a visual language of form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world." - Wikipedia
"I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the
world." - John 17:15-18
A blank slate. That's how we all come into this world. A canvas just waiting to be painted with the vision our creator has in mind as the master artist, and as time progresses, an abstract work of art is created that is beautiful....or is it? The funny thing about going to museums is hearing what people have to say about an abstract piece of artwork placed before them. Some see the piece as brilliant, while others may think it's mundane or lacking in creativity. And then there are others who just don't get it. To them, the art piece is just a splash of colors over what was once a blank canvas. No purpose. No meaning. What each person sees is shaped by their perception of the piece, therefore it shapes their belief. And who knows.....they could all be right, partially right, or just downright wrong. The only person who knows the true meaning of the artwork, however, is the artist that created it, and to unlock the true interpretation of the artwork, one must speak to the one who created it.
We all are abstract paintings formed and shaped by God, and no matter what one's perception is about you, it is God, the master artist, who has set the purpose of your life before you were even born. Tap into who He is to learn the meaning of the art piece He has created you to be. Know your worth, learn your purpose, and strive to fulfill it each and everyday. Of course there will be times that are harder than others and you will come across those who will not be able to understand the meaning behind the artwork God has placed before them, but don't be discouraged by that. Everyone will not understand who you are and what your purpose is, and that's just how God intended it to be. LOL! Be confident in who you are and always remember - "You are an abstract painting.
