Walk with Me -- I Am Coming

We have been honored by Faith Hetrick's use of our artwork in her beautiful music video, Walk with Me -- I AM Coming, a prophetic song. You are invited to view it below.



Author's note:  Sometimes imperfections may be retouched or removed using software, but usually the art is presented here without any modification. You can find more art in this blog's directories for the Young Ladies of God Gallery and the Children of God Gallery.  I also recommend visiting my children's blog, Verses to the King, where you will also find beautiful poetry they have written for the glory of God. I also recommend my article on the same topic as this song, which is called The Ways of Life. You can access my complete blog directory at "Writing for the Master."

This blog is managed and maintained by my seventeen-year old daughter, C.V., under my training, direction, and guidance with a bit of assistance occasionally. 

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

"The Crown of Beauty"

"The Spirit of the Almighty LORD is with me because the LORD has anointed me to deliver good news to humble people. He has sent me to heal those who are brokenhearted, to announce that captives will be set free and prisoners will be released. He has sent me to announce the year of the LORD'S good will and the day of our God's vengeance, to comfort all those who grieve. He has sent me to provide for all those who grieve in Zion, to give them crowns instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of tears of grief, and clothes of praise instead of a spirit of weakness. They will be called Oaks of Righteousness, the Plantings of the LORD, so that he might display his glory." (Isa 61:1-3)


"Flowers of the Field"

 "Praise from the Islands"

"A voice says, "Call out." Then he answered, "What shall I call out?" All flesh is grass, and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field.

(Isa 40:6-8)

New Testament

"Fruits of the Spirit #1"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"But the spiritual nature produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There are no laws against things like that. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their corrupt nature along with its passions and desires. If we live by our spiritual nature, then our lives need to conform to our spiritual nature. We can't allow ourselves to act arrogantly and to provoke or envy each other." (Gal 5:22-26)
 


 "Fruits of the Spirit #2"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. Let us not become boastful, challenging one another, envying one another." (Gal 5:22-26)
 

"The Light of the World"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"Jesus spoke to the Pharisees again. He said, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will have a life filled with light and will never live in the dark.'" (Joh 8:12)
 

"Never Severed"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"What will separate us from the love Christ has for us? Can trouble, distress, persecution, hunger, nakedness, danger, or violent death separate us from his love? As Scripture says: 'We are being killed all day long because of you. We are thought of as sheep to be slaughtered.' The one who loves us gives us an overwhelming victory in all these difficulties. I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love which Christ Jesus our Lord shows us. We can't be separated by death or life, by angels or rulers, by anything in the present or anything in the future, by forces or powers in the world above or in the world below, or by anything else in creation." (Rom 8:35-39)

"The Mirror"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"Do what God's word says. Don't merely listen to it, or you will fool yourselves. If someone listens to God's word but doesn't do what it says, he is like a person who looks at his face in a mirror, studies his features, goes away, and immediately forgets what he looks like. However, the person who continues to study God's perfect teachings that make people free and who remains committed to them will be blessed. People like that don't merely listen and forget; they actually do what God's teachings say." (Jam 1:22-25)


"Earthly Treasure"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"Stop storing up treasures for yourselves on earth, where moths and rust destroy and thieves break in and steal. Instead, store up treasures for yourselves in heaven, where moths and rust don't destroy and thieves don't break in and steal." (Mat 6:19-20)


"The Ascension"

"While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken to heaven." (Luk 24:51)


"The Last Supper"
-- H.R., girl, age 13
"Then Jesus took bread and spoke a prayer of thanksgiving. He broke the bread, gave it to them, and said, 'This is my body, which is given up for you. Do this to remember me.'" (Luk 22:19)


"Firm Faith"
-- C.V., girl, age 15
"Not that we lord it over your faith, but are workers with you for your joy; for in your faith you are standing firm." (2Co 1:24)



"Walking on the Narrow Way"
-- C.V., girl, age 16

""Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. "For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it." (Mat 7:13-14)


 "The Four Seeds"
-- C.V., girl, age 16

 "Lilies of the Field"
-- H.R., girl, age 13

""And why are you worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these." (Mat 6:28-29)


 "The Lord's Supper"
-- C.V., girl, age 16

"While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and after a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; this is My body." And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you; for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins." (Mat 26:26-28)



 "English Breakfast"
-- C.V., girl, age 16

""Therefore bear fruit in keeping with repentance; " (Mat 3:8)

""My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples." (Joh 15:8)

"All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness." (Heb 12:11)
