Light of the World

I can’t paint without being acutely aware of the light which makes things visible, whether it be natural light or the hidden Light that is even brighter. If we can be excited by those things around us even by the illumination of an overcast sky, how much more than having eyes open to understand the Light that has abolished death. This is the week when many celebrate the dark spirit of death in the United States, and other places – but it is also an opportunity to shine the true Light that has overcome the world.

There is no Salvation outside of Christ, and He is the Light, the true Light which Lightens everyone born into the world - John 1:9 Let us turn to Him!
