The title of this piece is, “Mystery Stance”. It is a mixed media drawing on 18 x 12 paper. The 4-section composition is a technique I learned in an art class, which I love because it allows me to use different mediums and drawing styles in one piece. The meaning: What gives me the power to stand? It is the love and blood of Jesus Christ. The love that He showed when He died on the cross for us. For that mystery to be known, I stand. What gives me the power to stand? It is the love and blood of Jesus Christ. The love that He showed when He died on the cross for us. For that mystery to be known, I stand.
In Ephesians 6:19, the Apostle Paul speaks of the “mystery of the gospel”. For that mystery, I stand in a position, armored, and prepared for battle. It is the Love of Christ, His dying on the cross, the shedding of His blood, the whole mystery of it all, on dark days and colorful days, that keeps me, in God's Word, fighting, standing, that I may “fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel”. To let others, know about the love of Christ.
