Doodling through the scriptures.....What if you wrote your scriptures down and, simply, doodled around these words with different, defined patterns?
I have included a few examples of these doodles to get you started. Let's remember that there is no "wrong" way of doing any of this - and I release you from the power of "It has to look nice". While I am working through a scripture , in this way, I am engaging my heart and mind, soul and body - in a complete dance with the Lord. Every sense is firing and concentrating on His presence and what He is saying to me through this scripture----write it all down- all over the page that you are working through! Who cares what it looks like????? You are interacting with God- and THAT is the blessing, the visual representation is a testimony to this interaction - NOT the purpose of the dance, but the beauty foretold of the dance.
I release you from that Critical spirit that stops you from trying. I release you from that critical spirit that tells you its not good enough. In the Old Testament, they would pile rocks in places that they had an interaction with a Lord - to serve as a visual representation. Do you think, and I wonder, did the prophets of old look at their rock formations and think, "That doesn't look good enough." ? Our enemy will always try to get us to NOT draw attention to a physical representation of a heavenly manifestation....after all, it focuses on God....... Focuses. on . God.
Let your artwork and your dance focus on God - not on what you can, or can not do. Point towards God with all that you do, and be released from the need to "get it right"----you GOT IT RIGHT - You engaged in a heavenly manifestation of God, through the scriptures and through the salt of creativity ---You got it right. That's the thing that you got right - the artwork is nothing more than a pile of rocks to give Him glory - I release the artist within you to create with Joy and no longer to be a slave to creating for others approval.
Be blessed, create in joy and rise up, Oh Creative Army- take your stand against the darkness!!!
