Greetings to everyone! Im new here. :) This past Sunday my church had to unexpectedly say goodbye to our worship pastor. I was to paint live during worship, and I didnt know what I would create. (Often God gives me an image to plan and work out ahead of time, but not this time.) During worship, purple and blue ran down the sides of my canvas, and our worship leader invited us boldly into the throne room, so my long frays of violet became the torn edges of the temple veil. God then prompted me to add overlapping circles and squares in gold metallic paint. As I painted, the Lord told me the two very different shapes represent the two very different paths we are about to take: the path of our worship leader, and the path of the rest of our church. But we all carry the same Gospel-- we are one Church. We might think were physically separated when a fellow minister says goodbye, but in reality we all still overlap in the Kingdom, side by side. Veils continue to be torn as we make the invisible God visible to the world, transparently and humbly playing our part to open more eyes to the glory of the Lord. May God be glorified wherever his people go! (Acrylic and oil on canvas, 22 x 28 inches)
