Silence can shatter the trivialized deity that has occupied our imaginations and provide God the canvas to begin a new work in our souls.
Skye Jethani
Maybe God is waiting for us to be silent long enough so he may begin painting a new picture in our imaginations, to begin transforming our image of a manageable deity into one that can truly inspire.
Skye Jethani
A painter paints his pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence. We provide the music, and you provide the silence.
Leopold Stokowski
Its (painting like this you are in front of your canvas, your hands holds the painting, ready, raised. The canvas waits, waits, empty and white but all the time it knows what it wants. So what does it want, anyway? My hand comes near, my eyes begin to transform the waiting canvas; and when with my hand holding the paint and my eyes seeing the forms I touch the canvas, it trembles, it comes to life. The struggle begins, to harmonize canvas, eye, hand forms. New apparitions stalk the earth, c. 1953
Karel Appel
This world is but canvas to our imaginations.
Henry David Thoreau
Our culture has confined our imaginations with an uninspiring vision of God. He's been reduced to a manageable deity of consumable proportions.
