Inspiration

Is there such a thing as divine inspiration? Where does it all come from? Do all creations or ideas come from coincidences and random appointments?

“It wasn’t really planned,” a friend of me stated. Another baby on the way, and they hadn’t really planned for it. On the contrary; they wanted to other things now. Yet the baby was making its way and hopefully turning out to be a big blessing for the family.

The piece of art hanging in front of me is kind of childish. A smiling elephant is kind of cute. It is wearing a yellow dress which makes it even cuter. It takes creativity to paint something like that.

Listening to Handel’s Messiah make people speechless and some will start crying from the beauty of it. Amazing is a word worn out these days, but that oratorio is amazing. All the accords, harmonies, lyrics, instruments and voices put together – it is amazing.

Where did Handel get his inspiration? From a new baby born? From a cute painting?

“Has God created everything?” I asked the children visiting. After some discussion the 5 year old concluded: “God has created everything apart from the things.” Things were referring to roads, furniture and so on.

In the Bible Moses got instructions from God how to build the tabernacle and all the holy elements:

“And you shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty. So you shall speak to all who are gifted artisans, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron’s garments, to consecrate him, that he may minister to Me as priest.”
