Where are the Prophets?

I have started on two canvases 

after I finished my Hold on to Hope and 

Delight in the Lord.

Above is a background for a second

Delight in the Lord.

Here is another work in progress.

Here are drawings from my journal.

Psalm 1 reads:

The law of the Lord is their joy;

God's law they study day and night.

In Sirach 48, it reads:

Like a fire there appeared the PROPHET

whose words were as a flaming furnace.

I am wondering where are the prophets of today?

In the Old Testament, God sent prophets 

to deliver a message that would make people think,

repent of their sins, and turn back to him.

The "fire" of their words were not meant to harm,

but to "burn" away wickedness in their midst

and bring healing.

I think WE are called to be prophets 

in our own milieu.

If we read God's word and delight in it,

we can bring others to know God

and bring peace, love and healing 

to a broken world.
