I have always been blessed with a simple idea of life. God in Christ and me in a personal relationship. Be married to a like-hearted person, have children, and create family. Live in nature as much as possible, free from the influence of popular culture. Work hard with the land, be and enjoy quiet, and sow and entangle by family in this. Philosophy.
This was and is a singular pursuit. However when I added beauty by being educated in it and its practise, all the above were significantly enhanced and understood. The creative act of striving toward making art for God, in and using nature, is as closely divine as a human can become. It seems the most sincere and true meaning of ‘working out my salvation daily.’
