From “The Discipline of Inspiration: The Mysterious Encounter with God at the Heart of Creativity” by Carey Wallace
Inspiration appears in a dizzying variety of times and places. It dictates in Homer’s ancient Greek and through the keys of Lamont Dozier’s piano. It catalogs the chickens, snow, eels, and chrysanthemums of Jakuchu’s Colorful Realm. It breaks apart the English language in Emily Dickinson’s hands. It births the tango on the floor of an Argentine bordello.
Inspiration’s presence in the wide range of human cultures can be seen as God’ celebration of every individual culture, and God’s celebration of their huge variety: God’s celebration of all cultures.
