Christmas Eve.  I took time to paint, plein aire. Painting is sensual breathing, a necessity for an artist. I inhale God's beauty in order to be nourished. I exhale a painting in order to get out what has come in and in order to make room for more of His glorious splendor. It is  life - sustaining. 

Handel's  Messiah has been playing on the radio.  Handel must have breathed deeply of truth and beauty in God's Word to breath out such a masterpiece.   I rejoice in the same Savior that his music proclaims.
