It took many years to understand this truth. It has to do with letting go and letting God. For each individual that has a different meaning because God has a special purpose for each individual. No matter your station in life there is a special place for you in the body of Christ. It only takes the belief that Christ died for you on the cross that your sins are forgiven. In this way we learn to let go of our fears and concerns. The way to truth and wisdom is not so much through books and teachings of this world but of learning the word of God and being still enough to hear His voice. Just because we have a degree issued in an institution it does not mean we are better than anyone else. Jesus first chose the unlearned of the world because they were the ones who need Him. He knows the heart of the ones He chose. He knows those who were chosen would learn to listen and hear, see, and know Him and His father. Self is the greatest barrier to knowing Christ and God our father. I most often write these posts in the wee hours of the morning. It is the one time that I can be still enough to listen to that voice that is His voice. It is in the quiet of the morning that He speaks in whispers to the soul. I have a cross on my wall that has the words "Be still and know". It is Psalm 46:10 (Be still and know that I am God). It is the one place that I can get out of self and into Christ. Be still and move out of self and into Christ. Listen to the silence where the voice of Christ speaks to you so you can overcome self.

Are you ready for another Moontear image? I must admit I am loving doing these images but also finding it harder to be creative. It would have been nice if there were a few young lads mixed in. The AI used to create these images seems to get stuck on a lot of foliage, some of which does not make much sense. It also seems to have problems with hands and ears as well as mirror images when it comes to some details that should be repeated in reverse, such as the vests. It is annoying at times. Any who, here is this weeks image.

The Copics used are:

This image was one of that printed out on the dark side. when coloring this kind of image, the colors either are darker or lighter that usual. It can be challenge to get the colors right. Shadows are deeper causing colors to almost become black in shadows. 

That is it for this week. May the good Lord Bless and Keep you safe. Remember to "Alaway Love The Details."
