Day #17, Digital December





A little piece I started a few years ago. I decided to finish it and put it out on my blog. The painting is an 11×20 inch acrylic painting on a flat panel canvas.
As a young man I used to like to play a game called capture the flag. Most of the time we played the game at night so the darkness would provide cover for our covert operations as we tried to get to the opponents flag. On some nights however, the moon would shine to brightly to provide us any cover. That is the thing about the light it doesn’t allow you to hide anything. Jesus said in, John 12:46 “I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.” We must always remember God is our moonlight showing us our way through the darkness of this world.
The animal shelters are full of animals waiting to be adopted. Many of these animals are pets no longer wanted or animals from homes where they were not cared for properly. Having a pet is both a commitment and a relationship. As we all know a relationship takes work. So before you commit to a pet think about what you’re getting into before you bring the animal home. That cute little puppy or kitten will one day be a full grown dog or cat requiring a lot of your time.
