Coming back from church I noticed our sidewalk covered with these and so I asked Jennifer if she’d do a little writing (much nicer than mine), add her touches of beauty, and take what turned out to be a very fun picture. Thinking of our regular time in Romans, and our wonderful Easter celebration, I settled on chapter 8, verse 11 – a perfect reminder of life after, and because of, the resurrection. And don’t you just love TULIP?
If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
It was actually much harder to write these letters than I originally thought. We left our little sidewalk art, and I wondered if anyone would come across it and actually think that a combination of time, wind, and random chance created this simple message. Actual life is immeasurably more complex and yet men continue to suppress the truth; believing and teaching that the obvious beauty designed by God just happened. We have life, and the hope of resurrection, because the same God who spoke everything into existence indwells us by his Spirit.
