A Heavenly Bargain

(Jesus:) The road to fulfillment, to life, to love, to happiness and satisfaction, is the road to commitment. You must give your heart to Me.
Give Me your life. Commit all your longings and desires to Me. Bring them all to Me and lay them at My feet. 
[...]see if I will not cause happiness, joy, and fulfillment to overtake you. I will overwhelm you with My love!
I'll cause you to taste of the ecstasies of the Spirit which you've not known before.
I'll cause you to know joy and happiness such as you've not yet known. (end of excerpt from article)
just about time..

Listen to my story

Dedicated to sweet Carlos.
(medium: watercolors on charcoal paper)
It's a story not known of
can't be read
can't be heard
but if you low yourself
listen with your heart
you'll perceive it..
you'll understand.

You and Me.
What day is it, and in what month? This clock never seemed so alive...
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this...?
Drawn on February 2007.
And for when it comes;
Feliz día de San Valentín.
I'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you.

Filling the places you desert.
(Xn art. done on June 2007,
published on Xn #100. article; "Filling the places you desert." pages 14,15.)
Jesus: Your happiness is found in the path of yielding to My Spirit, yielding to My ways, sacrificing your own nature and your own natural ways of doing things, and yielding to My ways.
You must simply be convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt that My ways are the way you want to be.
[...] you'll know that your happiness lies in becoming what I want to make you and partaking of My Spirit to the point that you allow it to change you.
You must be willing to give up what you have to have Me. I will fill every place that you desert, and every piece of ground of your spirit and your heart that you give to Me, I will gladly take and come in and inhabit for you, making you more like Me.
[Thanks to sweet David Riley for helping me with the photoshop tweaks :) ]

Just for you, with love.

For my siblings and loved ones. :)

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

The road to happiness

(Xn art. done on may 2007,
published on Xn 95. article; "The road to happiness." page 9.)
Trust fully in My love for you, knowing that I give what is best for you, and that which will make you happy. It's a spiritual principle that the way to true happiness is to let Me work as I know best, and it's also the way to ultimate fruitfulness and usefulness, and hence lasting reward. Though this road has trials, battles, and obstacles to overcome, it also avoids many deep pitfalls, sidetracks and dangerous territories, full of trouble and difficulties. So rejoice that you're on the right road, and let no man take away your joy and happiness and service to Me. (end of excerpt from article.)
well, little did i know when i drew this that i was reflecting myself on it;
what would be me a few months later.
i guess the Lord did know.. he always knows. :)

Positive lenses.

(Xn art. -done on february 2007. published on Xn 92,
article; "Positive lenses", page 12.)
(Jesus:) This life and its limited existence can be so full of care, worry, and fear if you let those things in. But if you instead choose to accept My love and My perspective in all things, you will begin to see the opportunity in every difficulty, the positive in every negative situation. You will have the faith to rise above this finite world and accept that there is a higher plan for your life and that I am the One Who is ultimately in control. (excerpt of the article)
