Shroud


On this mountain the LORD Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine--the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations; he will swallow up death forever. Isaiah 25:6-8a

Forfeit


For what will it profit them to gain the whole world and forfeit their life? Indeed, what can they give in return for their life?
Mark 8:36-37

Door of Hope


"Therefore I am now going to allure her;
I will lead her into the desert
and speak tenderly to her.
There I will give her back her vineyards,
and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope.
There she will sing as in the days of her youth,
and in the day she came up out of Egypt."
Hosea 2:14-15

Foreword 9/11/06


This collage was created in Asbury's "Face Up" worship and prayer time. It is hoped that this time will be the birth of 24/7 prayer in our community. The collage addresses the power of Jesus, the Word, to overcome our weaknesses. His word creates the moment it is spoken. His Word is Action.
