Picture of God

god-frame-1I want to do something special for God this year.  I want to put a picture of Him in a frame and hang him along side of Jesus. 

Now don’t take offense.  I know many of you have a picture of Jesus hanging on the wall right alongside of Elvis.  I think it is time to hang a picture of God.

This is where the trouble begins.  What is the picture going to be?  No one has seen the face of God and lived to tell about it.  Moses saw the backside of His glory.  That was a start but doesn’t help me.

Can anyone help me with your idea of what goes in the picture?  Possibly, I should put…

  •  
  • A beautiful sunset
  • A walk on the beach
  • Two love birds
  • Giving $5 to the “bell ringer”
  • Standing on the corner yelling Jesus

What do you think?  What should I put in the picture? OK.  You read the blog.  I see you.  There you are.  A few hundred of you are lurking.  Now you are grinning.  I told you I could see you. 

Now click on comments and give a word or two of your picture of God.  Do it anonymously if you must.  Come on.  Click.  You can do it.  Put your fear behind.  That’s it.  Click.  Thanks!

It is the desire of my heart that God be Lord of my life. Life’s experiences have killed the old man and God is building a new creation in me. I look forward to experiencing the new man God creates in the old vessel known as Archie via "God Spots".

  5. A loving husband caring for his hospitalized wife, special needs kids and still working full-time. His wife, worried that she is a burden to him and wanting to somehow make things easier for him.

  8. I’m a big Caedmon’s Call nut so I am reminded of a song off their first album called “Not Enough”….

    I find direction in eastbound clouds
    And long for what they have
    But when I step into its midst
    Its substance I cannot grasp
    So I paint a portrait of you
    As if you had human disguise
    With oil and canvas to be clay
    To open up their eyes
    “like you opened up my eyes

    We try so often to frame a picture of God for others to show them what we are so excited about…and though we might succeed must like the mist we step into…we can experience God fully but will never be able to describe fully what it means or feels like.

  9. Thanks Phillip. Our faith is so simple, yet our God so complex. It is nice to know Him. His glory shines through us when we tell others what little we know.
