I call this one “Blood Washed”. I’m not 100% sure I am finished with it yet, but it is close. Once I decide that it is finished, I’ll get a much better picture of it for the site. Anyway, what I was thinking about when painting this is that we are all lost in the darkness of this life and this world. Only the blood of Christ is powerful enough to wash us clean of our sins. Only the blood of Christ can chase the darkness away in our lives. Only the blood of Christ sets us free.
Your heart is heavy, i too feel this way some times. We have to reialze the blood cleanses us, we are saved by the blood of Christ and by that we can come to God. The blood is not for us necessarily but for God to see and pass over us. The enemy hates us, and will stop at nothing to stop us from coming to God and loving Him. God loves you, he cherishes you, if he did not, he wouldnt have gone so far to bring you where you are right here and now. Your experience is like all of ours but keep praying about this. God will give you rest. Believe and will be done for you. Remeber the enemy is a liar, dont listen to him, listen to God.
@Ruan:
Thanks for the words of encouragement. My heart is full of joy with what God has done in our lives. Our prayers right now are for provision, wisdom, and a renewed strength and creative inspirations.
Thanks,
