    Art as Prayer

    “Without reflection, it isn’t prayer, it’s just art. I love art, but if you want to hear from the Divine Creator, you have to spend the time wondering and asking questions.” ~ Wendi

    Quotes

    “Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” ~ Howard Thurman
