I thought it would be nice to mention another form of art. One that has helped ease the mind of troubled souls, expressed love and joy of the things seen or unseen, has been a beautiful way of communication: POETRY! Lets talk a bit about poetry.
Poetry came to me in a time when I was going through a lot of turmoil and heartache. God placed it on my heart to express my inner thoughts and prayers.
"No Fear" and "Happenstance" were a couple of those poems.
Happenstance?
My heart is
overwhelmed with pain,
Fear of abandonment
is driving me insane;
My mind is cluttered
with the same thought,
Day and night question
after question an answer sought.
Oh my God, I do not
understand what has happened!
I need You to speak!
Please, have mercy, someone speak!
How can people be so
cruel and are able to cause such pain?
It makes me look at
life and find it horribly vain.
Yet I must go on
living, trying to hold on and believing.
Over and over again
tides of rejection have me battered.
When will all this
misery end?
How much more can I
be stretched and bend?
I am sore afraid that
the life in me will not last.
Presently surrounded
by thoughts of despair,
I could not hope, I
would not dare.
Love seems to stand
afar in the distance,
My Father, I am
calling on You, for Your assistance!
Oh my God, I do not
understand what has happened!

“When you pass
through the waters, I will be with you;
and through the
rivers, they shall not overflow you:
When you walk through
the fire, you shall not be burned;
Nor shall the flame
scorch you”
Isaiah 43:2
And here are some other famous sayings and poems;
Today I want to encourage you to use your words in your art. And make art out of your words!
Happy writing and creating!
I love you all,
Mia
