WOYWW: Is it I, Lord?

On my desk this morning, my journal.

You can see a really dirty rag, 

gel medium (I've been doing some pages 

for my altered book), a spray bottle,

paint, foam brushes that I haven't used yet,

and brushes of course! 

I did try to spend a longer time in prayer

this morning, as this is the Wednesday of Holy week.

I read about how Judas, who was chosen by Jesus

to be one of the Twelve Disciples,

betrayed him.

Jesus said, "Amen, I say to you,

one of you will betray me."

Judas answered, 

"Surely it is not I, Rabbi?"

"Surely it is not I, Lord?"

may be the cry of every heart 

at one time or another!

We are unfaithful,

prone to making God

in OUR OWN IMAGE,

and often cowardly,

unwilling to stand for

what is right!

Still we can depend on God to make 

"Beauty out of our ashes",

if we are willing to turn away from sin,

and turn to Him. 

Judas' tragedy is that he lost hope.

He could have become a great saint too

if he faced his sin,

asked forgiveness,

and turned back to God.

Joining the lovely Julia for a 

peek at desks and projects!
