Some Ideas For Inspiration

Prayer and Bible devotions provide many of the greatest opportunities for God's direction in art. So reading these verses, the whole chapter, or even several chapters before starting work can give great depth for creativity. The following are only outlined suggestions to feed your God-given talents.

Greatest Commandment

Let’s teach children what Jesus knew was most important.

Matthew 22:37

You shall love the Lord your God with all
your heart
with all your soul ∞
and with all your mind ○

You shall love your
neighbor as yourself

Matthew 22:39

Art- windchimes, drawings, tapestries, bowls, garden stones, etc.
provide great opportunities for discussion. Later, as they grow, the
seeds of these symbols may also.

For artists:  Create a piece of art using the designated colors that is not only attractive, but a meditation tool.

For worshippers: 

        This is an interactive piece of art which should hold a quiet spot in your home.

Each color is meant for association and to help recall the verse:

  • True blue is self-explanatory
  • Purple, the color of nobility
  • Navy blue representing justice
  • Pure white
  • Coral pink often seen in sunsets
  • Blue-green as money (such as handling it with integrity)
  • Silver denotes value
  • Gold speaks of a greater value

Also, keeping a journal of inspirations from Bible study or blessings in your life connected with each adjective may serve to bring the peace that God provides as you meditate!
