I finished this drawing two days before I separated my shoulder in a skateboarding accident. My sketching days have been put on hold for a few weeks. God is teaching me a-lot during this time. Specifically how to rest. I am not able to run in the mornings, pick my kids up, paint, or give my wife a hug with two hands. I am impatient, but I know that God will bless me during this time. I feel like he has given me a scripture from Ephesians that I would like to share w/ you.
A Prayer for the Ephesians 3:14-21
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
