Acrylic Worship


"May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us- yes, establish the work of our hands."~ Psalm 90:17

The ways to express our praise to God are infinite. My mind cannot even begin to fathom the endless opportunities to offer worship and honor to our Lord. I do know that everything we do is worship to God (Colossians 3:17), and that our very lives are an offering, a spiritual act of worship (Romans 12:1). Last night, our youth group experienced worship in a way that was new to many of us. We offered our art as an offering to God. We acknowledged that God created beauty, aesthetics, and creativity, and we became imitators of Him by also creating our own works of art inspired by His Spirit. We were led in this experience by Heather Hodges. She expresses her love of God through her art as well as through many other gifts and talents God has given her. It was an amazing experience, and I hope it is just the first of many new ways we will recognize as opportunities to bring glory and honor to the King of Kings!
