The Power Of The Cross.

I just finished up these crosses today. Let me start out by saying the cross was not a flowery, scallopy, polka-dotty place to be, in fact, it was downright brutal. But, the debt that was paid and the grace I was given in that single moment was and is a beautiful, beautiful thing! My seven year old actually came up to me and said, "Jesus' cross didn't actually look like that, did it?" "No, son. It's just art." I'm pretty sure if I painted the real deal, people really wouldn't want to hang it in their bathrooms! I hope these messages were an encouragement to you today...
