Knowing the Artisan from His Work

My journal page for Friday

is about how we know the artisan

from his works.

Like you know something about me

by looking at what I create.

We should know from the beauty

and order of creation, 

that our Creator is a God of love,

that he wants to bless us,

and that He wants to provide for us.

And here is my canvas,

"Hold on to Hope".

I decided to put a real necklace

hanging from her neck.

I'm still thinking of where to put the words,

and whether it's going to be straight

or curving....

Hold On to Hope!

I'm one day late for the party,

but I didn't want to miss the fun!

 Here is the canvas I'm working on.

I have yet to attach the flowers

and put stems.

I also have to put wall putty

on her dress and paint it.

I think I'm going to name this

"Holding on to Hope". 

In my journal is a drawing of Aquila and Priscila,

two names mentioned in the Bible six times.

Paul in the Book of Romans said they

were his co-workers, as they also built tents.

They would hold prayer meetings

in their house as there were no churches yet.

They are mentioned again

in Acts 18, that they took time to 

disciple the learned and eloquent man, Apollos,

when they heard him speak in the synagogue.

Obviously, this couple did what they could

with what they had, to spread the Word

and build the Kingdom of God on earth! 

Even though sometimes they were persecuted 

and had to relocate because of persecution,

they continued to hold on to hope!
