ART AND THE HELP OF GOD



The sun is shining here physically, psychologically and spiritually.










Benedict founded the most famous monastery in Europe, on the height of Monte Cassino, south of Rome. From there the Benedictine Order was founded and there he wrote Rule, which was based on the monastic understanding that salvation comes through disciplined godliness.

 
   First, I advise that you should implore the help of God to accomplish every good work you undertake; that he, who has now vouchsafed to rank us in the number of his children, may be no more grieved at our doing amiss. For we ought always to use his grace so faithfully in his service, as to give him no occasion to disinherit his children like an angry parent, or to punish for eternity his servants, like a master incensed at their crimes- servants who have refused to follow him in the way to glory.
                                                            Benedict of Nursia (480-547)

I had wished to share my thoughts with you about how our intentions often have a real effect on this pyhsical  universe, but believe it may be more calming for me this day to let my son get back on this computer and play his game. He put the photos of my latest artwork on this blog and the top one should have been turned to the right, as it is on its side. I must go now though, with the thought and feeling that all is well for us. May you feel this love which is so real it created us from nothing. Blessings peace and love be with you now and always.
                                      Your bro Peter.
