At Last I See the Light (Tangled)

4/13/2019

"And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ."
-2 Corinthians 4:3-6 (ESV)

A similar page Tangled popped up on my Pinterest feed and I knew I had to try it- it's not as hard as looks. The pigments from the Brea Reese acrylics and Liquid Gold really make this page p-o-p! I cut out the Disney silhouette castle with my Cricut (but you could print one off and hand cut) traced around it for the bottom reflection and then pasted the cut one on top. The lights were done with a flat brush a little bit of blending. I typed the lyrics in a Word document and printed them off in both black and white.

The Great Avenger

"Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience.” -Romans 12:14 - 13:5 (ESV)

Let me explain the background, even though you can barely see it.... I put masking tape down on my craft mat and painted and stamped/stenciled the different Avenger colors and symbols. I then taped them side by side for the background. The stickers covered most of it up but you can still see some of it. Glad I took a before photo!

Hulk- green & brick stencil,
Iron Man- yellow & binary numbers stamps
Hawkeye- purple & feather stamps,
Black Widow- red & spider webs stamps
Captain America- blue & stars stamps

"Woe to him who strives with him who formed him, a pot among earthen pots! Does the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’ or ‘Your work has no handles’?” -Isaiah 45:9 (ESV)

As clay, we don’t get to choose what we are made into- that’s the Potter’s job, nay, His pleasure. He molds us and shapes us I to what He wants us to be. We are His creation so therefore He has every right to do so. I thought this was so fitting for the Trolls theme. They’re weird, they’re wonky, they’re personalities all over the place and yet we love them for who they are because they show their true colors..
.
It’s not about what you’re not. Show what you’re working with. You’re enough. You have more to bring to the table than you realize.

Suffering

"They make night into day: ‘The light,’ they say, ‘is near to the darkness.’ If I hope for Sheol as my house, if I make my bed in darkness, if I say to the pit, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’ where then is my hope? Who will see my hope? Will it go down to the bars of Sheol? Shall we descend together into the dust?” -Job 17:12-16 (ESV)

I did this entry one year ago as of yesterday. I never posted it because I didn’t think it was relevant or good enough. But after living a whole year in what I would say endless day to day suffering I understand a whole lot more than what I did when I made this. The quotes you see on the right page (pinch to zoom) are from a book I was reading by @johnstephenpiper. The circles on the right our Disney stickers but I found it in one of the magazines that was sent to the school. But when you think about each of these characters and the movies that they were in, you can easily recall the suffering that they went through. At times you didn’t know how it was going to end or if the character was going to live and we feel that way sometimes. We feel like we are never going to come out of our circumstances...
.
But we do don’t we? What feels like the end of the world is not the end of the world. What feels impossible at the time was never really impossible. And the biggest result that comes out of these trials and tribulations? The growth that these characters go through. They come out stronger and braver and ready to move onto the next challenge because they know that even though they suffered, their suffering made them better person.

When Christians suffer it can be for our spiritual growth, God’s glory and or the grounding of Satan. Either way- it is never wasted. It is never pointless. God always has purpose 🙌🏻
