Picasso's artistic inspiration takes hold of young Emma's faith imagination in this beautifully illustrated picture book about how we all see God differently.
Emma returns from a field trip to the art museum and is inspired to draw like Picasso. Emma wanted to draw something beyond spectacular and decides to draw GOD. Find out what happens when her classmates can't see GOD in any of her drawings until they find inspiration in her contagious faith.
This urge to draw something beyond spectacular would not leave my side. 'What should I draw?' I thought. I sat quietly, listening to my mind and heart. That's when I heard their whisper and I decided to draw God.
Emma tries again and again and again to draw God, but her classmates can't see God in any of her drawings. Emma finally realizes that she doesn't need their approval.
I knew I had drawn God. God knew I had drawn God, and maybe Picasso knew, too. That finally felt like enough.
But when Emma returns to school on the following Monday, something beyond spectacular happens.
Drawing God is a story for children to discover what inspires their very own faith imagination and to realize the contagious faith that lives powerfully within them.
My hope is that this story brings you continued joy and inspires children to share freely their gifts, their drawings, their light, their bread and their love of God with others. May Drawing God remind them that everyone sees God differently and help them better understand God's unconditional and endless love.
In friendship,
