Truth is found in many quarters. Often things need to be understood in a qualified sense. Don't you find that a large part of wisdom is understanding in what sense a truth is to be held? R. C. Sproul says "the doing of theology is the making of many distinctions."
I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."
