Piece

In this picture, I aimed to depict how there are many foes raining down to destroy us. Then when I considered a shield, I first thought about an umbrella. But that was too flimsy to protect us. Then I considered a metal umbrella. Ha ha, but that was a bit too difficult for me. And then it dawned on me that the way God has shielded me, delivered me and protected me even from his wrath, is through the blood of his son, Jesus! By dying on the cross, Jesus delivered me from every foe! In that sense, his blood shields me from all that opposes me.

When I am overwhelmed by what opposes me, Jesus lifts my sad, weary head to look into his eyes and to rest in his care!
