Remember Him

I love art like you should know by now but I wanted to paint something that meant more than a pretty picture so with my new found love for watercolor I thought and thought until I decided with the upcoming Easter Holiday  I wanted to paint the hand of Christ with three forget-me-nots in his hand as if He were giving them to you. I wanted it to speak for my beliefs and my motivations in life. So with much reverence and determination I painted the hand of my Savior, Best friend and Brother;

Title: Remember Him

Artist: Mesa Rose, 15 year old

Watercolor

11th painting

Finished: Early March of 2013

I am not a very bold person, I am not one to talk and talk and talk. I prefer to speak my mind in a way that is more comfortable, painting. I believe Christ died for me because He loves me. I know this because I have felt His hand in my life and I took the effort to find out for myself if it was really Him. The very mountains and stars scream of this truth. All we have to do is Remember Him, recognize Him :)

I just Love Jesus! He really is the Man! But sometimes I forget (bad me) ( I mean we don't see him all that much do we ;) We read all over the scripture how great He it to EVERYBODY (that includes you).

He never ditches us: John 14:18: I will not leave you ^acomfortless: I will ^bcome to you.

He freaking wants us to live with Him forever (which would be an epic slumber party, don't worry, its an open invitation): John 14: 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will ^alove him, and we will come unto him, and make our ^babode with him.
We read these without even thinking about them: Isaiah 53:3-5   
He is ^adespised and rejected of men; a man of ^bsorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we ^cesteemed him not.

 4 ¶Surely he hath ^aborne our ^bgriefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 But he was ^awounded for our ^btransgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his ^cstripes we are ^dhealed.

THINK ABOUT IT, amazing :) He did all of this for US, Me, YOU. um, yea, best friend.

He really understands what we are going through: Ecclesiastes 3: 1-10 

 1 To every thing there is a ^aseason, and a ^btime to every purpose under the heaven:

 2 A ^atime to be born, and a time to ^bdie; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

 3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

 4 A time to weep, and a time to ^alaugh; a time to ^bmourn, and a time to dance;

 5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

 6 A time to ^aget, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

 7 A time to ^arend, and a time to sew; a time to keep ^bsilence, and a time to speak;

 8 A time to love, and a time to ^ahate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

 9 What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he ^alaboureth?

 10 I have seen the ^atravail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be ^bexercised in it.

WOW :)
