Creating to Honor the Creator!
"Paint with Monai" is hosting a worship and paint event! Read below for more details!
One of the things I’m learning during this season of growth as an artist, is that I am not the artist. God is. I’m just an admirer of His visions and the beauty He bestows upon us. I’m also a vessel He chose (for whatever reason that’s His and His alone) to let everyone else know and see that when they allow the Holy Spirit to guide them, they too can embark on their own journey of creativity. It doesn’t have to be painting, it can be any medium that God places on one’s heart. To create art, is to be free to feel and express through whatever avenue you so choose.
The thing is, creating doesn’t have to be about talent, skill or what art school you went to. It doesn’t have to be the person who was painting since they learned to hold a paint brush. It could be a person like me who went to Michael’s one day and saw canvases on sale and said “I want to try painting.” It could be the person who’s overwhelmed with life and need a safe, positive outlet to soothe their souls and bring them back to a place of peace. It could be the person who doesn’t have an artistic bone in their body (so you think) and you just want to try something new and different.
Something I’m led to do is to give creativity back to the Creator, giving Him honor and providing a space where He is celebrated for what He allows us to do as creatives and servants of Christ. Every good and perfect gift comes from above, yes? So what better way to honor the ultimate artist than to spend time worshiping Him and fellowshipping with others who desire to do the same?
Can’t think of one? I got you. Look below!
I’m very excited to invite you to “Create to Honor the Creator” Worship and Paint event! We’re meeting our Lord in a space to give Him our worship through creativity and basking in the presence of the Holy Spirit. I’d absolutely love it if you would join us. It doesn’t matter what expertise you have with painting if any at all. Just come among other believers, fellowship and see what God does!
