Towards Ordination

By janettesmith1

My first attempt at acrylic

It may not be the best painting but it says what I wanted it to say. We were talking about being vessels holding the love of God today at creative prayer. This is slightly turned around in that God is the cup and I am held within. It feels as though my life is unravelling at the moment but I'm still held within God's love. And I have realised that the unravelling is safe. It is a new me that is being formed. It may not feel particularly comfortable at the moment but I am being unravelled to make me what God intends me to be.
Another picture I had today was the dregs of my coffee cup. If the cup is me and the dregs are the things I do wrong then if the cup is filled with the Holy Spirit, the more of Jesus in me the more I am diluted and become like Jesus.
