WOYWW: Of Enemies and Challenges

Here I am 

unashamedly,

unabashedly

showing off my mess of a workdesk

this Wednesday morning!

For that is what I do

EVERY Wednesday

for a couple of years now!

How AMAZING is that?!

This is what I started with this morning.

I found a face on the upper right side,

and filled in the profile with flesh acrylic.

And here she is,

liberated from the background!

Matthew 6:4 reads:

"When you pray,

go to your inner room..."

Don't make a big to do about it!

And here is what was on my journal yesterday,

from the 5th chapter of  Matthew:

"Love your enemies, and pray for those

who persecute you,

that you may be children of the heavenly Father,

for He makes the sun rise on the 

bad and the good,

and causes the rain to fall on the just and the unjust."

Just as it's easy to find faces in a 

messy painted background,

I think it is also easy to find enemies 

if we go looking for them!

Sometimes we feel "entitled",

and quarrel people because they 

don't give us what we think is our due!

Why, just the other day,

I got angry at a sales person

for not accepting my voucher,

although I realized afterwards that it was 

not her fault!

Something that is taking me forever to finish!

The sweet lady who commissioned it

wanted a piano,

and I've never drawn a piano before!

What a challenge! 

But that's how we grow,

isn't it?

Joining the lovely Julia for a 

peek at desks and projects!

 

I love blog parties!

Won't you join us?
