The Art of Living
Someone has made the observ-
ation that God is the Original
Artist: When He conceived the
world, that was poetry; when He
formed it, that was sculpture;
when He put into it beauty and
color, that was painting; and
when He peopled it with living
things, that was the grand, di-
vine, eternal drama.
It is our common experience
that exposure to great art lifts
the spirit into a sense of har-
mony with the infinite and the
eternal. One canot visit the fine
art collections or the famous
cathedrals of this country and
Europe without feeling awe and
gratitude before what man has
created under God’s inspiration.
Furthermore, the thoughtful
person who responds to a true
work of art develops what might
be called “the art spirit.” He
many not become an artist in the
technical sense of the word, but
he seeks to carry into daily life
the same awareness of beauty,
and the same faithfulness to
high standrads of workmanship,
which characterize the painter,
the sculptor or the musician. He
realizes there can be an art of
being a good parent or friend, an
art of being a good profession
or business man, an art to be
followed in all human relations.
As we think along this line
we realize that Christ called
men to the highest of all arts,
the art of living. When He gave
the central commandments to
love God and to love man He
was setting a pattern that would
bring harmony into the indi-
vidual life and into the life of
society. He was calling men to
a sense of meaning and dignity
in human existence, and a true
perspective of life’s values. He
was demonstrating, both by
word and example, that the
highest art of all is that of
humble and joyous awareness
of God.
