created for the art show entitled Fusion at my church – Flipside We just got through reading through the book of Samuel in our bible study group. It’s been tough… reconciling God in the Old Testament, who seems so harsh and distant, and Jesus in the New Testament, who seems much gentler, forgiving, and much more compassionate. Perfect love and absolute righteousness… being able to love somebody no matter who they are… yet being so righteous that even the slightest sin will never see the inside of Heaven… Those two things just seem so incompatible, but that’s God for you – a deep ocean of contradictions, holiness, and otherness that I need to hold on to – even if holding on to something so beautiful will hurt me so deeply – because I know that if I let go of it, there’s nothing in this world that could provide a worthy substitute for it. But then it’d be foolish of me to think that Christ would love me without challenging me to do things that seem impossible… It’d take quite a while to fully explain what this means to me… although I was partially inspired by Depeche Mode’s song entitled Judas, which sums it up particularly well, especially when Dave sings “Walk on barefoot for me/ Suffer some misery/ If you want my love/ If you want my love” Judas Is simplicity best / Or simply the easiest? / The narrowest path / Is always the holiest / So walk on barefoot for me / Suffer some misery / If you want my love / If you want my love Man will survive / The harshest conditions / And stay alive / Through difficult decisions / So make up your mind for me / Walk the line for me / If you want my love / If you want my love Idle talk / And hollow promises / Cheating Judases / Doubting Thomases / Don’t just stand there and shout it / Do something about it You can fulfil / Your wildest ambitions / And I’m sure you will / Lose your inhibitions / So open yourself for me / Risk your health for me If you want my love… If you want my love… If you want my love… If you want my love…

While on a day trip recently, I saw this beautiful statue of Jesus! In the scriptures, John 11:25-26 states, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.” / All profit from sales goes to Feed The Children /
“Let us hold unswervingly to the hope / we profess, for he who promised / is faithful.” Hebrews 10:23 / All profit from sales goes to Feed The Children /
Make yourself familiar with the angels, and behold them frequently in spirit, for, without being seen, they are present with you. / Written by: Francis DeSales / All profit from sales goes to Feed The Children /
Life is full of choices and which directions to follow. I like what Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote: “Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” / All profit from sales goes to Feed The Children

For all the children…..let them be safe in His arms.
Captured this beautifully lit cross as we were driving by a cemetery in Raleigh, North Carolina. The light shining on this cross was amazing and instantly caught my eye!

DONE IN COREL X 2 ,,,RedField… Do you feel your alone that your unloved that no one cares about you? / Well your wrong Jesus loved you before you was even born. / When you feel lost he reachs out to fine you. / When your hurting he crys for you then whips away your tears, / If you will let him. / When you are scared he can protect you, / if you will let him. / Let Him wrap his arms around you … / All you have to do is ask Jesus to come in to your heart / and mean it. / Then He will put a smile on your face ..

Inspiration from the Bible / Whoever offers praise glorifies Me / Psalm 50:23 /
In the shadows where fear is but a light away. / She danced in the glory of God’s eye. / She reach out to touch the ray of His smile. / And stuble back in wonder at the love / that grew there. / She step again to feel this love that was free to her / And the joy brought new found tears. / and wash away all her cares and fears. / and like a swan she danced in the spirit of her Lord. / The only real true love she had ever known. / she was a vision in His eyes as A child He had watched her grow. / Learning life true leason, To give and love but with Her / Lord who was up above. / She Was The Star In His Eye / /
