Like a vinaigrette

I love vinaigrettes. I love that there are so many different kinds, that they are never plain, and that they tend to be very robust and flavorful. But mostly I think that they are fun to watch when you mix them together, because simply sitting in a shared space, never being shaken up, they separate out. But shaking them up is a very different thing indeed.

Julie and I have decided to embark on a new journey of digital journaling for the benefit of those who know and love us. And those who do know us know how very different and complementary the two of us are. We both recently took the DISC test, and it turns out we really are basically diametric opposites in every category. I thank God for that. This will be an interesting intersection of two very different personalities types who have joined each other’s stories, and here reflect that concoction.
So we are like a vinaigrette. Neither oil nor vinegar are very fun to drink on their own, but together they make a make a robust, flavorful, and beautiful marriage.

Unknown Artists and the Glory of God

Art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord and now lives its own sterile life, generating and degenerating itself. In former days the artist remained unknown and his work was to the glory of God.

-Ingmar Bergman (quoted by Gregory Wolfe in Image Journal)
