I’ve come to believe that unless we are making some thing we cannot know the full depth of God’s being and God’s grace permeating our lives and God’s creation. Because the God of the Bible is fundamentally and exclusively THE Creator, God cannot be known by talking about God, or by debating God’s existence… God cannot be known by sitting in classroom, or even in a church taking information about God. I am not against these pragmatic activities, but God moves in our hearts to be experienced, and then makes us all to be artists of the Kingdom. The act of Making can lead us to coming to know THE Creator personally… The Word of God is active, and alive. God the Artist communicates to us first, before God the Lecturer.” #slowart #woodspoon #whittling @morakniv」4月24日 0時05分
