Acrylic and Charcoal
All of us make mistakes in our lives, so why is it so hard for us to extend grace to others? Why do we love to "share" with people a little bit of information about someone that they really didn't need to know? Is it because we like to be "in the know", or is it just to make ourselves look better? For whatever reason, it is simply unnecessary gossip and damaging. We can never get those words back. They will forever be branded in the mind of the person told. When they think or see the person talked about, it will always be in their mind, an unnecessary negative. It can just as easily happen to us. Something in our lives that we wish was buried or not made public.
So, next time when we feel the urge to share something negative or juicy about someone, let's ask ourselves, "is this really necessary for others to know, is it for the betterment of God's kingdom".
Cissy, well said and something we all need to remember . Love your colors and composition in this painting. It is all very peaceful.
