Words are too direct

I have been playing with words mixed into my images. I am not sure if I like this. It gives the image my feeling and too clearly directs the viewer to my thought instead of allowing them to have their own feeling inspired by the image. Although I guess it is a different level because the words also evoke feeling and yet I still feel like it is me clearly starting the conversation. I will keep playing with this. I might try not ordering the words so clearly.

Now a few words on the statement in the above image. This comes out of thinking on people needing to humanize the creator. My feeling is we as humans are often assuming this creator has the same perspective as we do. That god is happy when we are good and sad when we hurt one another.  I think (or do I mean feel) this is our human need to be one with God, on the same page. I feel God is bigger than this, there may even be levels of emotion that we cannot comprehend in this level of existence we call life. Most of all our life experiences are based on a time frame that the creator moves outside of. Birth, death, love, jealousy, revenge, triumph, greed, etc. are all part of our experience, not the creators. What god is getting from this we can only imagine, even then I belive it is way beyond our imagining. That does not mean I won't keep trying to imagine.
God holds all this and if you want to humanize it you can say, "in his hands" (then the whole gender thing is there too). I could ramble on, but I am going to stop for now. Below is some self talk. This is what I keep saying to my self to get through each day.

Work at not being afraid,
know that you belong here
and that everyone and everything belongs here with you
and the gift you have been given is choice or free will
And that the creator loves you in a way that is
so far beyond human understanding
it leaves us all a bit confused,
and that's ok.
Forgive and forgive again...
"Do not be afraid" (Share your fears, paint, dance, write, sing, play, etc...)
