Painter

You are being filled and emptied, by His hands.

God is as a painter; at work on the pictures of His creation. Every moment He writes what He will on the page of their thought, and then obliterates it. He takes away anger and puts contentment in its place. He takes away stinginess, and puts generosity in its place. Morning and evening this process takes place. You are being filled and emptied, by His hands.
The Masnawi, VI:3332-5,40
