When I started painting “New Creation,” it began with only shades of blue and a heavy heart. As I painted my tears, I reached a place where it looked like there were cracks across the whole painting and I saw my own fractures, my own broken pieces, there. I let the painting sit for a long time unsure how to finish it, there seemed to be no way beyond the brokenness and grief until one day I saw the cracks like vines reaching up and outward. What started as a story of brokenness and grief, became one of new life, growth, and restoration. The waters of the deep that I felt I’d drown in, instead became a river of life and all things are and were and will be made new. Now when I look at this painting and I remember the pain I felt as I painted it, I see a beautiful story of God’s grace and the story He is writing for all of us; what we see now, these waters of the deep we are fighting through, are only part of the story. One day, all things will be made new, every tear will be wiped away, and He will make a New Creation. In the meantime, we can rest in the comfort of all He has promised and all He is doing and that “…if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17
