Protea

"The Lord preserveth the simple;
I was brought low and He helped me.
Return unto thy rest, O my soul;
for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee.
For thou hast delivered my soul from death,
mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling."
Psalm 116 6-8

Arranging the Flowers

"The Lord upholds all who fall,
And raises up all those who are bowed down.
The eyes of all look
expectantly to You,
And You give them their food in due season.
You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living thing."
Psalm 145: 14-16

View from the Pre-Vue

"Trust ye not in a friend, put ye
not confidence in a guide: keep the
doors of thy mouth from her that lieth
in thy bosom.
For the son dishonoureth the father,
the daughter riseth up against her
mother, the daughter-in-law against
her mother-in-law; a man's enemies
are the men of his own house.
Therefore I will look unto the
Lord; I will wait for the God of my
salvation: my God will hear me."
Micah 7:5-7

tHe tEmPtAtion

"And the Lord God commanded the man,
saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
thou shalt not eat of it : for in the day that thou eatest
thereof thou shalt surely die."
Genesis 2 16-17

Oil on canvas
"My dove, my undefiled is but one;
she is the only one of her mother,
she is the choice one of her that bare her.
The daughters saw her, and blessed
her;  yea, the queens and the
concubines, and they praised her."

Song of Solomon 6:9

This is an oil painting I have finally finished
after working on it, on and off since 2008

fiSh

""The race is not to the swift,
Nor the battle to the strong,
Nor bread to the wise,
Nor riches to men of understanding,
Nor favour to men of skill;
But time and chance happen to them all.
For man also does not know his time:
Like fish taken in a cruel net,
Like birds caught in a snare,
So the sons of men are snared in an evil time,
When it falls suddenly upon them."
Ecclesiastes 9 11b-12

"The wise men are ashamed,
They are dismayed and taken.
Behold, they have rejected the
word of the Lord;
So what wisdom do they have?"
