We Must Let God Love Us Like He Has Always Wanted To.

Even as believers we try so very hard to change. After a tragic event and in a time of trial we become more desperate to get His attention. We live in a time where we LONG FOR HIS PRESENCE in every day and every situation.

After ww2, new artists emerged, as the attention moved to USA. The war had devastated so much and it was time to start again.  Does this familiar. The thinking behind painting at this time had not actually changed much. Jackson pollock Mark Rothko emerged as really just two sides of the same coin.But there art appeared to be so different. Pollock believed in the thinking of CARL JUNG who believed more in the occult side of dream interpretation. Rothko was influenced by Nietzsche who claimed that GOD WAS DEAD.

I use all these examples for us to look at the parallels to our own lives and to look at what goes on around us.

So, by 1950, something new was stirring in terms of art style, although it was not new in terms of influence.

We too when faced by devastating circumstances can want to change. We must admit that we are need of A SAVIOUR because we are unable to really change. The heart needs to change. WE MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

God has longed to show us the fulfil extent of His love for us, yet He has had to stand back and let us suffer. This seems so unfair but let us be honest about how many times we have chosen our own way and chosen to readjust our lives to make them seem better.

Creative people can be very sensitive but also tend to be very inward looking. LETS GET HEALED.

What are you LED BY?


We are all motivated and guided through life by something. People want to believe that they are being different and unique but at the end of the day we are all subject to our human nature. Our human nature can tend to be SELFISH. This is why we need a Saviour. To SAVE US FROM OURSELVES.

In the years after the WW2, to look at our study on art and creativity and society this century, many were still influenced by a desire to study the nature of the individual and his expression of particular emotions. “Automatism’ was a style that influenced many painters, particularly Jackson Pollock. This was to let go of the will and be led, often by wrong influences, to produce random form and pattern.  This is significant in our study of the context of society at the time. To use this as an example it brings to mind a larger subject of interest.

To discover what people are led by one can look at the fruit it produces. In art of this time it led to problems within the lives of these painters and society. Problems such as a general despair and fear.

The fruit of the flesh is listed in Galatians. It might be useful to look at the FRUIT that your life is displaying at the moment. Jesus was led by the Spirit to be tempted to prove that He wanted nothing but His Fathers will.
THE NATURE OF THE SPIRIT IS SELFLESS... THE FLESH IS SELFISH. We have been conditioned to believe that if we look deeply inward we will discover answers to our condition... the only ANSWER IS A NEW HEART.

Now is not the time to got caught up in looking inward. The healing that we need is in being SELFLESS. Being selfless is only possible through the Spirit of God.

TEST THE SPIRITS AT THE MOMENT; but most importantly LOOK AT THE FRUIT.
