Give Me Tears by Wesley Duewel

Give me tears in my eyes, loving Lord, I pray!
Give me tears when I intercede.
Give me tears when I kneel at Your throne each day;
Give me tears when I learn to plead.

Pierced Lord, break this cold, stony heart of mine;
Melt my heart with Your holy fire!
Flood my soul with the passion of love divine;
May I hunger with Your desire.

Take the callousness all from my heart again
Till I hunger and thirst and yearn,
Till the longings for souls of sin-ruined men
All-consuming within me burn.

Fill my heart with your tears; there unveil Your cross
Till all else of this world has died,
Till all else in my life I shall count but loss,
Save the cross of the Crucified.

May my heart be a crucified heart alway
That it bleed for the souls of men.
May the burden for souls melt my soul each day
Till I share Your travail again.

Give me tears when I preach of Your dying love;
Give me tears when I plead with men.
Give me tears as I point to Your throne above;
Love of God, melt my heart again.

-Wesley Duewel

The Blessings Of Brokenness by Alison Burrow

"This is a symbolic picture. The dark post in the middle is me and the cracks in the post represent times of brokenness and pain in my life. The ribbon of colour wrapping around me is "Father, Son, Holy Spirit" representing His presence with me during those times. If you look closely between the cracks you will see a mosaic of colour with shooting colours coming from them. These two things represents the miracles and lessons I can learn if I embrace my brokenness and allow God to teach me through those times."

Light of the World by Alison Burrow

"This picture represents Jesus Christ as the Light of the World. If you look carefully, you will see a cross with a candle inside. The candle represents Jesus as the Light of the World. The candle has what appears to be blue wings in it... this represents the Holy Spirit. Outside the Cross you will see many repeating lines. These represent the Father."

"Out of each point of the cross you will notice rushing colours and shapes. These represent the infinite ways in which the Cross works in our lives. I have attempted to display, in colour and form, the power of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ."

Creation by Todd Thomas

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.
John 1:1-5 NIV

Running the Race


A pen outline drawing about running the Race of Faith I drew this December.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12:1-2 TNIV

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Ephesians 6:16 TNIV

I see many other bible verses in this picture including the parable of the sower.
What do you see when you look at it?
