1 Corinthians 13:7. Love bears all things... acrylic on wood.
I painted this bear the same time as the sloth and yesterday read 1 corinthians 13:7 - the perfect line for tis image. Painted before, I couldn't bear to pass up the opportunity to express it again, and again. :). Love does bear all things.
Love keeps us going by believing, hoping & enduring. Without Love we give up... & you can't beat the Love of God & Jesus,
there is no other love, none as powerful and everlasting. To discover Gods love is a blessing!! It helps one with all other 'love' that doesn't always feel so loving. There are days I don't feel loved or lovable... on those days, I thank Jesus for loving me, always.
Another powerful love - is the love from dogs, dogs provide unconditional love & that is why I am positive it is intentional - 'Dog is 'God backwards, to remind us. All who love dogs & are fortunate enough to be loved by a dog (or several) understand this. I've met a few who do not love dogs, I've seen a few who treat dogs like crap... forever chained to a doghouse, never let around to be loved, abused and neglected. Definitely one reason I do not enjoy social media, teaching a new awareness of how cruel some humans can actually be towards these loving beasts, albeit my heart swells to see when they are rescued by a loving human to a forever new home. God knows, God sees. I also know a few who do love dogs like family, as we do love "my girls". When searching for a new home a priority was for my girls to be able to explore, run & bark -free from traffic & humans (who don't like dogs) God put us here. I am forever grateful. Maybe, I need to paint a dog for this series. I'll seek the bible for guidance & sure, I shall find!
The dog days of summer are here, 30 degrees several days this week! I feel' it's time to paint a new dog group portrait, each with their favourite things. Enjoy the day & keep your yourself & your dogs cool, I notice the girls like to be inside and will encourage me to do the same, considering they wear fur coats- I think they know best.
