The Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin upon Nerl River is one of the loveliest Orthodox churches and a lyrical symbol of medieval Russia. The Intercession Church has been likened to a weeping mother. The church is situated at the intersection of Nerl and Klyazma Rivers in Bogolyubovo, 13 km north-east of the ancient capital of Vladimir. Commissioned by Andrew the Pious in 1165 to commemorate his slain son, the church used to be connected with Andrew’s stone castle with a gallery. The monument is built in white stone, has one dome and four columns in the interior. Its proportions are elongated on purpose to make its outline seem more slender, although this architectural solution made its interior too dark for holding divine services. For centuries, the memorial church greeted everyone approaching the palace at Bogolyubovo. In spring, the area would be flooded, and the church appeared as if floating on water. The church itself has not been touched by later generations, although the galleries were demolished and the dome’s shape slightly changed. The walls are still covered with 12th-century carvings. In 1992, the church was inscribed on the UN World Heritage List as part of the site White Monuments of Vladimir and Suzdal.

I don’t know if this is factual, fictional, or a bit of each, but the most commonly circulated story about how the ladybug got its name is quite interesting. According to that account, quite a long time ago in Europe, a small farming village was experiencing unprecedented problems with insects that kept devouring the crops. Faced with certain ruin, the peasants fell to their knees and began to beg the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary to send help in their calamity. Their simple faith was soon rewarded. The farmers began to notice a change in the crops. The dying foliage started to revitalize and greenness once again appeared on the landscape. Something was definitely reversing the devastation. As they looked closer, the farmers noticed small red bugs with black dots festooning their tiny concave, shell-like, bodies. Like soldiers called in to battle, they were eating the culprits—destructive aphids. “Our Lady’s bugs, Our Lady’s beetles,” the grateful villagers proclaimed. Eventually, as the small insects became a familiar part of their lives, the people shortened their name to ladybugs, the term by which they are still known today and perhaps one of the reasons why they are so well-loved. Whatever the case, ladybugs are the allies of farmers; they are tiny soldiers that patrol the fields making sure there will be food on the table for everyone.

Real change is the buzzword for this years election. This design is meant to encourage prayer groups and Christian youth to intercede for the well-being of the good old USA. Historically speaking, many spiritual revivals have begun with a small group of sincere committed young people, teenagers. † © Christopher Heidt 1 Timothy 4:12: “Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity”.

I took this photo of a little bunny in my daughter’s back yard; it seemed to be folding its little paws in prayer. I decided to make it into a card wishing blessings on someone’s life.

When hard times hit, you have to pray for a breakthrough. This image is my prayer for a breakthrough and perhaps it will become your prayer, too. Thank you Ruthie for your encouragement. Though the fig tree may not blossom, / Nor fruit be on the vines; / Though the labor of the olive may fail, / And the fields yield no food; / Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, / And there be no herd in the stalls— / Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, / I will joy in the God of my salvation. / -Habakkuk 3:17-18 Digital Mixed Media

A photo of my daughter shot in late afternoon light outdoors. Shot in raw and converted in PSCS3. Our Father, who art in heaven, / hallowed be thy name. / Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, / On earth, as it is in Heaven. / Give us this day, our daily bread / and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. / Lead us not into temptation, / but deliver us from evil, / for thine is the Kingdom and the power and Glory forever! / Amen / (The words of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ)

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” ~Ephesians 6:12 A prayer warrior does not need an arrow because the bow is lit with the fire of God’s Word and Spirit which penetrates the hearts of those who are prayed for so they may be refined, healed, and delivered!

Self Portrait

This was based of the song, Intercession We are in love with you and we want you more than so-called peace / Peace, peace, when there is no peace / And we want you more, want you more than all these things / We are those who cry out for your return / Jesus of Nazareth that you would come and set up your kingdom / We are those who awaken the dawn with our song / Though we meditate in terror still we press on For we are those who have heard Your voice in the middle of the night / We are those who have heard the invitation to arise / To arise, so give us the grace to stand with You to the end of time / To the end of time, to the end of time. . . Part of a series of 4 pieces I had to make for a project in a Graphic Design class. We had to take 5 photographs and focus on layers, transparency, and adding a textual element – and they all had to have a kind of theme. The theme I choose was lyrics from the artist, Misty Edwards

This portrait is of a woman I keep seeing in my mind’s eye for several days. I do not know who she is but the feeling is one of knowing someone out there is praying in our behalf. It is the first serious attempt I’ve made to try and show her. I am not good at drawing people especially the expressions on their faces. However, this one has been haunting me and so I decided to give it my best. I have drawn several versions of this woman. This one is the best of the lot. The experience of drawing her has been an emotional one, not meaning in a negative way but rather a feeling of deep compassion and comfort in knowing someone is out there interceding for us all. It gives me hope.
