July 29, Wednesday

Wow what a group project today.

Our memory verse for the day is:

I can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens me.  Philippians 4:13.

Mary Thomas explained to me that Christ is the most important part of this verse.  I totally understood because we often think we do things by ourselves, but when we impart our gifts it is truly a moment with God.  That Spirit comes through and we offer this world a peek into what God has to offer.  I believe the hands used today brought in a piece of Christ who strengthens us and teaches us to flow with His Spirit.

This is a three D painting on glass prepared by Claudia.  It is remarkably designed and you can feel the roundness of the light house, the clouds in the background just beckon you to come out into the sunshine and enjoy the day.

 

This is oil on canvas.  A very spiritual picture of rocks and a hill with a darkened sky.  The rocks are reflected in the lake below, and as you can see the lake mirrors back buffalo who once roamed on those hills....Claudia is of  American Indian decent....this is exquisite. 

 Thanks you for sharing Claudia.

 

The Living Owl.....such a remarkable piece completed by Grace.  She is new to Jones County, the youngest of our group....talented and humble.  This is a magnificent piece it will make beautiful prints..... 

 

 

Betsy's piece...an outstanding use of complimentary colors, blue, purple, white yellow, green, the delicate application of paint made this look like a stained glass window.  Congratulation Betsy, first painting on glass! yahoo. 

 

 

Betty Francis, our new pastor at Trenton United Methodist Church, completed her first glass piece also.  I love the movement and color used.  This piece has been adopted to be use by our after school program this year-  titled "Praise The Lord". 

She has been a wonderful participant in our group both spiritually and talented. 

This piece will be used on the workers T-shirts. 

Thanks for sharing this wonderful piece it is full of wonderful energy.

 

 

 

 

Betty Jo and Sharon were not here this Wednesday, but Sharon and Betty Jo are working on pieces that will be posted next time.

 

Remember "I can do all thing through CHRIST who strengthens me.  Philippians 4:13".....so pick up a brush, find an old piece of wood, locate a personal picture or something in nature that you would like to capture and go for it. 

 

Bless you all...until we unite again.  k
