When I refused to confess my sin,
my body wasted away,
and I groaned all day long.
4 Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me.
My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat. Interlude Psalm 32:3,4

“…to serve any discipline of art, be it to chip a David out of an unwieldy piece of marble, to take oils and put a clown on canvas, to write a drama about a young man who kills his father and marries his mother and suffers for these actions, to hear a melody and set the notes down for a string quartet, is to affirm meaning, despite all the ambiguities and tragedies and misunderstanding which surround us. ” Madeleine L’Engle, Walking On Water
This month C.cada, our church’s artists community took a trip to the Worcester Fine Museum of Fine Arts.

The team of artists who took the journey
C.cada is a community dedicated to helping artists from all genres discover, develop and then deploy their gifts for the benefit of the church and the community.
Our trip this month came on the heals of our annual art show and was a way for us to both kick back and then get some fresh inspiration for the artistic work we will do in 2017.

This painting was my favorite of the day. This lady seems to be in the midst of some intense study. I think the book opened and leaning against the wall must be a Bible and she has obviously been writing in her journal. The quill and glasses are pushed aside as she turns to God for a moment in prayer. The skull and hourglass are symbols of her mindfullness that her time is limited but look how much time is left in the glass. This lady knows her earthly pilgrimage is far from done.

Love the Lord, all you godly ones!
For the Lord protects those who are loyal to him,
but he harshly punishes the arrogant.
24 So be strong and courageous,
all you who put your hope in the Lord!Psalm 31:23,24
I am a runner by nature, but He has taught me how to stand…at least a little.
