The Story Of The 3 Canvases

By

I have always felt these words belonged to different canvases. 
We were totally out of the picture, but God in His great mercy chose to paint another canvas, so that He could add us to the final bigger work of art!

This piece is based on the song "Amazing love".. by songwriter Billy James Foote and performed by different artists from around the world..

"I'm forgiven because you were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well
Your spirit is within me
Because you died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
(Amazing love)
Amazing love, I know it's true
And it's my joy to honor You
In all I do, to honor You"


I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Messiah who saved me from eternal death. I am also the work of His hands.. a work in progress, as He fashions me and changes me - little by little - to be more and more like Him. The one Person I admire the most when it comes to creativity and imagination - it is this same Jesus - The Creator of all the earth, the skies, the sun, the moon, the stars, the animals, the birds... I have inherited a very tiny fraction of this gift of art and its appreciation, because I myself, am a child of God. I hope in the coming days, you will be able to see what I see in the little things of this life that has been granted me...

His hands and mine

Anesthesia is a very 'hands-on' department. It requires a lot of skill to advance needles (in various places!) with just the right amount of pressure when administering anesthetic drugs prior to surgery.  Steady hands. Nimble fingers.  It may be easy to assume that anesthesiologists hold a lot of power in their hands when we do things quickly. It may be easier to think that a simple needle or catheter insertion has nothing to do with God or His hands either. I have always wanted to "paint" myself a reminder of the fact that - it is always His power that works through me.  Was. Is. And will be.  For as long as He has allowed it.  Underneath are His everlasting arms, keeping me steady.  "Praise the Lord, who is my rock. He trains my hands for war and gives my fingers skill for battle." Psalm 144:1

The Names of God

 The different Names of our living God embed beautiful and precious promises in them. Have you experienced the providence of your Jehovah Jireh? Has the unexplainable peace of Jehovah Shalom quietened your deepest anxieties? Have you brought your broken hearts and crushed spirits to Jehovah Rapha who can heal you physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally? The eyes of El-Roi search the whole earth in order to strengthen the hearts of those committed to Him. How have you lifted the banner of  Jehovah Nissi  in your battle against the world today? In the person of His only Son, Jesus Christ, Jehovah Tsidekenu offers righteousness to all who believe. Do we look forward in faith, to the time when we can live together with  Jehovah Shammah  in all His glory? Imagine the power in a name.  Is it not amazing how He communicates with us even through His name? These are but a few of the many names of God found in the pages of the Bible, that sparkle like ...

ISAIAH 42:16 I will lead the blind by a way they did not know; I will guide them on paths they have not known. I will turn darkness to light in front of them and rough places into level ground. This is what I will do for them, and I will not forsake them. Ever felt like the directions in your life are all messed up? Like there are no proper 'sign boards' and you seem to be aimlessly wandering? Cling on to this promise... your real breakthrough might be just around the corner...  Do not give up just yet.. His right hand is never too short to reach yours..  And the Lord will never fail to perfect that which concerns you... (Psalm 138:8)
