Jesus suffered for our salvation. His response to Paul's request to remove his suffering was His sufficient grace, displaying His power through weakness, like a promise of hope for Paul's victory over darkness. A broken vase was chosen to depict a broken body - of Jesus and those who suffered - pouring out their lives in passion as a living sacrifice; bringing hope to others.
My piece illustrates God's might and magnificence personified in Eagles. The silhouette of the big eagle is God and the small eagle is man. God promised His daily provision of strength for a believer through life when we fix our eyes upon Him, upon His cross. As we pray unceasingly and trust Him, He will empower us.
God promises that I am not alone. My drawing shows dandelions and they represent God’s hope on the road to recovery. The lady is me and I am not alone. I was diagnosed with SLE, lymphoma and liver cirrhosis. During that same period, I experienced depressions and anxiety. Every day, I did not have the mood to do anything. Last month, during my recovery journey, I did my Bible study and did some art. Though the sickness is still with me, and it has led to all parts of my body not functioning well, which was a challenge for me, I never let go of myself. Life is worth living. I love art as it can help me destress, focus and find solutions out of problems! I found joy and contentment inside me as I pass my days – cool and calm! Years passed. Recently, my doctor found out that my thyroid has worsened and referred me to a specialist for further investigation. God is always with me and His promises never fail, so I am looking forward to my recovery. He is forever with me during my sickness.
Jesus' wonderful promise in John 15:5 assures me that all I did in His strength is never in vain. As a child of God, I experience His protective arm on my shoulders. He plants joy in my heart as I obey Him, bear fruit that glorifies His Name, and watch Him multiply them!
In dark times, when life seems shattered and tears fall, we can cling onto God’s Promise that we will dance again – dance with child-like faith through the rain.
The ram's horn or shofar is most recognised as a musical instrument to call the people to repentance, for war, to worship and healing. But a ram's horn is also frequently used as an instrument to carry the Oil used in anointing, praying for the sick, for consecration and as a mark of God's spirit upon the person. The believer is to be like a ram's horn - a call to God's salvation - the hope in Christ but also a storage instrument of blessing to others. The purple background is a reminder of our royal priesthood.
God gave us a sign through the parable of the fig tree. When the twigs get tender and its leaves appear, we know that summer is near. When we see revival in Israel, we know the day when the Lord is coming for us is near. This promise gives us great hope and endurance, knowing that all these will come to pass. Heaven and earth will pass away, but His words will never pass away - His promises never fail.
