Always Open – The Master Artist’s Gallery
A few days ago, I woke up, opened the shades, and saw this breathtaking sunrise right outside my window.
I couldn’t help it – I immediately went outside to take a picture in my pajamas, no less!
It’s okay, we have nice neighbors. 🙂
The sunrise was too beautiful to pass up and just go on with my day without thanking God for it.
I will never stop delighting in God and the gifts He has given to our world, including this stunning sunrise.
The Master Artist’s gallery is always open and free to the public.
No waiting in line
No restrictions
All ages welcome
Praise God!
The Master Artist’s Gallery
Someday the “Light of the world” will illuminate us and there will be no need for a sun.
Can you imagine what we will see then?
All of this from God’s loving hand.
God gave us the sun, never to worship but, among other things, allow us to “see” His magnificent creation!
Anyone who has visited my blog for any length of time will know that I sometimes share poetry from other writers.
Louis Gander is one of my favorites. He is so talented that I’m going to share another one of his poems.
Enjoy!
His Painting
Alone, the sun rises
over people unknown.
Although they ignore it,
its sunlight is thrown,
over the river and
through the faint fog,
like lone little flowers
on top a dead log,
growing so freely,
so gentle, so bright –
as God’s great creation
is seen from His light.
Some hovering noises
seem somewhat bizarre,
trespassing nature
from places afar –
while God, the Great Artist
keeps painting His way –
another day passes
just like yesterday.
A bright colored sunset
surrounds a lone loon.
Reflected on water,
His bright crescent moon.
Now stars hold God’s canvas
while brush strokes so grand,
paint wide vivid colors
with love’s perfect hand.
And God – although we
cannot even imagine –
prepares us a place, in
His painting called ‘Heaven’.
So things we see here
will seem dreary and gray,
compared to the next one
that’ll blow us away!

John 14:2
In my Father’s house are many mansions:
if it were not so, I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place for you.

On a personal note: I was in touch with Louis recently. He’s had some health issues and would really appreciate your prayers.
His gift of writing is a blessing to the world.
