...waiting...

acrylic on canvas

This waiting is messy, but one thing is clear: 

This waiting is not passive. 

This waiting invites us to hold the painful present 

and calibrate it with future hope. 

The waiting actively affirms the importance of life’s sorrows a

the Man of Sorrows guides us through.

  1. That is a wonderful quote! This whole earthly life, no matter how busy, must be also a waiting time, for our full redemption. Sometimes I'm really aware of what work it is -- "to hold the painful present and calibrate it with future hope." Lord, have mercy!

    Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful art and these thoughts.
