Before the Foundations
Assemblage

Rev 13:8— …everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of like of the Lamb who has been slain.

Both Before the Foundations and Father’s Heart have to do with the revelation the Jesus’s birth, life, death, and resurrection were not an afterthought brought about by man’s fall but a strategic plan put in place before the foundations of the world.

Seed of David
Assemblage

2 Samuel 7:12-16— …I will raise up your descendant after you, who will come forth from you, and I will establish his kingdom…

Romans 1:3-4— …concerning His Son, who was born of a descendant of David…

This piece refers to the fact that Jesus was a direct descendent of David as prophesied in 2 Samuel, the Davidic Covenant, and confirmed in Romans.

Leaning on Him
Acrylic on canvas 24” x 20”

2 Samuel 22:2-4— The Lord is my rock, my fortress & my deliverer: My God is my rock in whom I take refuge…..leaning on Him.

The real Spirit of Christmas is looking beyond our traditions to living the true joy of the birth, death and resurrection of Christ by seeing within each of us a heart decorated with God’s love.

Christmas gave us a living God who came to earth to make a way for us to have eternal life and is the beginning of knowing that God is at our side through all the conditions in life. The undertow of the world may pull us down but with Christ by our side we will surface and be able to stand tall.
