I have been learning about other cultures and their art forms this week. I have been learning about architecture, painting, literature, philosophy and music. For my class I have to create a virtual museum of different pieces that I am learning about. I just picked some Persian poetry. His name is Rumi and I find his work very fascinating. Most of what he has written is focused on God. Now the approach is based on the Islamic faith and not Christianity but there are Truths there. You have to dig but you can find God's fingerprints among the words. Here are a few lines that are in a journal that a friend gave me a few years ago. " Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought." " Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open?" Now, I know that Rumi did not believe the things that I believe about Jesus and his ways were different. However, if we talked to someone that shares his beliefs today, would we be able to dig out the Truths and show them God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit like Paul did for others? Is is God working through us that enables someone with different beliefs to see Him? I think that He leads us and gives us the words needed to show His glory, when He wants us to. God is engraved on our hearts, ALL OF US. Not just Christians. It is about planting the seeds in the lost so that God can place others in their path to water the seeds and to help sew them. God is ultimately the one who makes it happen. He just wants us to remind others that it is there, even if they do not believe. It is engraved.
