Remembering How to Remember

Don't you love a really succinct, useful quotation?

As soon as I hear a total gem that creates an inexplicable buzz or thrill in my heart I start to panic.

HOW CAN I NOT FORGET THIS ONE?

What better than to access the natural passions of the human brain for patterns and images?

A recent eloquent Christmas sermon I heard touched me in this way. The sheer poetry of the speaker's expressions cried out for something special. This time, rather than going into automatic "Summarize and Clarify" mode, I decided to find a way to capture quotations, the mood and the exotic beauty of the language.

I also wanted to play around with several different fonts. This was positively risque for me as I tend to panic if I need to work with more than two COLOURS, let alone FONTS!!
But heck: it's Christmas. 
So a little reckless funning seemed excusable (perhaps more so than the use coining of the word "funning".LOL.)

And this was the result. 
What do you think of the mix of fonts? 
How effective is it to mix Procreate fonts with handwriting?
Does the overall feel succeed in communicating Peace? Poetry? Awe?

At the very least, it has been an experiment I loved creating.
