God is an artist

God is many things Among those, an artist The sky, his blank canvas Sprinkled with hue of varying intensities The sun A golden fiery orb Emitting light for all to see To me, it's pure symbolism of What Jesus is And what we should strive to be To be the light of the world Not being consumed by the darkness Of the worldly ones I fail, and I stumble Trying to keep up with society's ideals Wear this, say that, do this It's a controversial thought, but Let's live how God intended Spreading love!! The moon the sun's faithful partner The silver glow of the moon casts a soft, ethereal light over the landscape, creating a tranquil ambience that invites reflection and peace. To me, the moon symbolises Finding beauty in the darkest of times Not the vague superficial type of beauty Only looking at looks for looking sake None not in any way But to look upon the beauty of souls Of hearts and of the mind Truly I believe God is an artist

Agreed! God is not just an artist, but He is the Master Artist! I see this every morning as I watch the sun rise and by the way as a bus monitor, I am up early enough most mornings to enjoy a good sunrise, and I see it each time I watch the sunset, a thing I also do. The sky is one of many examples in nature as to how God is The Master Artist.
