i love my art history class. why? because my teacher is kind of the best. and he has these one liners that just make you think. and i love it. today, the quote was:
"God sees you as you can be, but he loves you as you are, whatever that may be."
i'm pretty sure that this quote was meant for me. not because i feel like God doesn't love me or anything, but just because i feel like i can be so much more than what i am. and even though i already know it, it's reassuring to know that God has a plan for me so much greater than anything i have planned for myself. a lot of the time i wish i was more creative, artistic, stylish, athletic, whatever. but guess what? i can be those things. and i will be. i just need to see myself as my Heavenly Father sees me. but while i'm working on that, He still loves me. He wants me to be the best me possible, and I know that the only way to do that is with Him by my side.
art begins by revealing the artist to you but ends by revealing you to yourself. there's just so much truth in art that i never knew before. i love learning about it. it's simply beautiful.
*if you ever go to LDSBC, please take art history with brother gough. i pinky promise it will be one of the best classes you ever take.
