“How is faith to endure, O God, when you allow all this scraping and tearing on us? You have allowed rivers of blood to flow, mountains of suffering to pile up, sobs to become humanity's song--all without lifting a finger that we could see. You have allowed bonds of love beyond number to be painfully snapped. If you have not abandoned us, explain yourself.We strain to hear. But instead of hearing an answer we catch sight of God himself scraped and torn. Through our tears we see the tears of God.” IfsSufferingSongHumanityAnswersLove IsNumbersBloodTearsMountainFlowRiversSightFingersEndureHearingAbandonedTornStrainLiftingScrapingBonds Of LoveExplain Yourself Author:Nicholas Wolterstorff

I paint because I can't help it.” GivingChildrenHas BeensArtI CanHelpingInspirationFacesDesireSongGamesAnswersStreetsPaintingSightPaintTerrorNewspapersNightmareRhymeItemsBecause I CanNurseryCaricaturesNursery Rhymes Book:Paula Rego Source: Paula Rego

“Water. Its sunny track in the plain; its splashing in the garden canal, the sound it makes when in its course it meets the mane ofthe grass; the diluted reflection of the sky together with the fleeting sight of the reeds; the Negresses fill their dripping gourds and their red clay containers; the song of the washerwomen; the gorged fields the tall crops ripening.” TogetherSongCoursesSoundWaterNatureSkyFieldsReflectionRedGardenRiversSightTrackGrassTallFleetingClayCropsSunnyReedsCanalsDrippingContainersRipeningSplashingGourds Author:Jacques Roumain
