The Greatest Painter






Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael, Rembrandt, Matisse, El Greco, Renoir, Picasso are some of the master painters of all time. But do you know who is the greatest painter of all eternity? God is the greatest painter of all time. He uses our very lives as His very own canvas. He starts with a bold color of sparkling yellow very much like the rays of the sun at the onset of our lives. Then different hues and cascading colors follow suit in a never ending succession of colors and tints. To us, who cannot see it all, it seems like our own canvas has no meaning and is just a jumbled and unintelligible mixtures of colors, some joyous and others somber and gray. But to the greatest Painter of all eternity, our canvas is a dazzling masterpiece that He so proudly shows off to all the angelic hosts. The Bible says that we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14) and that we are the pinnacle of God's creation because we were made in the likeness and image of God (Genesis 1:26). God uses all kinds of colors, even the dull and seemingly unattractive ones. It is very clear in His mind the concept of His finished product. In reality, we may undergo so many trials that represent the gray and seemingly dull colors on our canvas, but at the end, God's masterpiece will show the greatest work of His hands. And what is that work? A life changed and transformed to the glory of His beloved Son- Jesus Christ.

Hi Dhemz,
Yun kasi ang isang bagay na weakness ko. Dahil lumaki akong palaging gutom, masyado akong maluho pag dating sa pagkain nang mga anak ko. Ayaw ko ding isipin nang mga anak ko na tinitipid ko ang padala nang mommy nila kaya binibigay ko ang karamihan sa gusto nilang pagkain. Inispoiled din nang misis ko ang mga anak namin kaya nung nasa America na siya ay hinahanap pa rin nila yung luhong nakagisnan nila sa kanilang ina. Thanks for your visit and comments. God bless you all always.

Hi Dhemz,
Sorry for the term sabog sabog. Yun kasi ang una mong maiisip sa pagkakita sa litratong iyon. Hindi ko alam na talagang isinabog mo pala para makunan nang picture. Sorry sa sermon ni father mel, hehehe, lol. Tama yung mister mo na isaayos ang mga DVDs para madaling ma account sila. Ganun din sa amin nuon, ayos ako nang ayos at gulo naman nang gulo ang mga anak ko lalo na yung bunso kong prinsesa. Kaya ito, nakakalbo ako sa kunsumisyon, hehehe, lol. Salamat ulit sa dalaw at pasensiya na kung paminsan minsan eh nasesermonan ko kayo ni Shy. Frustrated priest o pastor siguro ako, hehehe, lol. God bless you all always.
