Thy Will Be Done

I was gazing at a painting which looked back at me. It observed me anywhere I went. It was Christ inviting me to see myself teh way He sees me. Sometimes it simplu takes closing my eyes and taking a deep breath amidst all that surrounds me… not thinking anymore, not even feeling, but simply being aware of His presence in my canvass, in my brush and palette. Thy will be done. Everything feels all right. My painting has become my prayer.
