A Little Sunday Scripture

georgia country church
Sharon Methodist Church, Sharon, Georgia 

My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.

Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
James 1:19-27

And here is my painting for Day 4 of 30....


Enjoy your Sunday!

Are you using a brush or a knife or both for these paintings? I love them! Keep up the good work....and I am sure glad you are "back"......always miss seeing your work if you are busy and away......
Thank you, Ida! Only using a brush - keep in mind this is a small painting (6"x6"), so may be larger than actual size on your screen.
