Deuteronomy 26:8, “And YHWH brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great deeds of terror…” So, the idea for this morning’s picture actually comes from my reading of the baptism account in Matthew. I was freshly reminded of how Jesus embodies the exodus of Israel in Himself–passing […]
Isaiah 59:2, “…your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you…” Isaiah 55:7, “…let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, let him return to the LORD, that He may have compassion on him; and to our God for

Isaiah 58:10, “If you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as noonday.” Isaiah 58 is always a challenging chapter for me. It’s terrifying to see that God’s people thought that they had an intimate relationship
Job 12:10, “In His hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.” It was tough to come up with a verse picture today. I spent most of my time reading this morning in Genesis considering some of the patterns we see in the Creation week….some wonderful stuff there, but
Song of Songs 2:10-12, “Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come away, for behold, the winter is past; the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come…” I came across this verse back when I was reading through SOS, but I wanted to save

Hebrews 2:9, “But we see Him…namely, Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.” The suffering of the Son has been woven into the crown of His glory–Our death is swallowed, our Lord is risen, may we rejoice

Lamentations 3:22, “Because of YHWH’s great love we are not consumed…” (NIV) What a beautiful truth to consider…..why are we, the people of God from all times and places, why are we not consumed? Only because of the steadfast love of YHWH. His covenant-keeping love stands between us and oblivion. So, as we enter
Psalm 25:10, “All the paths of YHWH are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.” I came across this well-loved verse this morning and the above image almost immediately came to mind. What does it mean for us to “keep [YHWH’s] covenant and His testimonies”? Well, ultimately it
Job 9:33, “There is no arbiter between us, who might lay his hand on us both”1 Timothy 2:5, “There is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” Reading in Job again this morning. One of the really fruitful “lenses” through which to read this book is to

John 16:2-4, “…the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. And they will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me. But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told them to
Isaiah 51:6, “Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look to the earth beneath; for the heavens vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment, and they who dwell in it will die in like manner, but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will never be dismayed.” This
Romans 9:33, “as it is written, ‘Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense; and whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame.’” I was reading in Romans 10 this morning, but I started back in chapter 9 to get some context and, in doing
Exodus 12:46, “It shall be eaten in one house…and you shall not break any of its bones.” John 19:36, “…these things took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled: ‘Not one of his bones will be broken.’” Reading through John 19 this morning I noted as I haven’t before the connection that John makes

Here is the second picture based on John 3:16. This one was also for a monthly supporter of FOE. Description is below! In this image, the women represents the Bride of Christ, that is to say all of God’s people throughout time and space. “Eternal Life” is depicted here using John’s definition of knowing God
