| Seeking Miracles I want you to ask yourself this question: Do you love God because He is King? Because He's your Savior and He first loved you? .... Or do you love Him for His miracles? I heard a message on this last night and I realized that it is a huge problem in the world today, and in my life. We are so quick to be refreshed sometimes because He shows us His power through miracles, but what about when He doesn't? What about when He restrains His power? We stop believing. The truth is, that's WHY He restrains His power, because we're not loving Him for HIM, we're loving Him for His miracles; for how real and alive everything feels when we see His power! Miracles are for the unbelieving, so that they'll believe. We HAVE the power already! We should be performing miracles, not asking for them! You probably already know this, but it blessed me, and I hope it blesses you, or at least reminds you. In His Love, Michelle | | |
| IMAGINATION and FANTASY "To paint a such a picture the artist must must not only have imagination, but fantasy as well." "What is the difference between them?" asked one of the students. "Imagination creates things that can be or can happen, whereas fantasy invents things that are not in existence, which never have been or will be. And yet, who knows, perhaps they will come to be. When fantasy created the Flying Carpet, who could have thought that one day we should be winging our way through space? Both fantasy and imagination are indispensable to a painter." "And to an actor?" asked Paul. "What do you think? Does the dramatist supply everthing that the actors need to know about the play? Can you, in a hundred pages, give a full account of the life of the dramatis personae?" AN ACTOR PREPARES Constantin Stanislavsky | | |
