I have had lethal force applied to me twice, and nearly, twice more. The first two were boiling water and a 150hp Evinrude boat motor. These were violent and painful. The second two were tornadoes, striking some 500 yards from me. They were violent but not physically. I am thinking about these because I am reading Revelation and the powerful and deadly forces that will be released on the earth and humans. It is scary to me, but I am not fearful. I am spared from these forces by Christ’s blood through faith, He has saved me. So, the events in these passages are scary, but I am not fearful. Nothing can separate me from Christ’s love, not even the end times. As an artist, I can find no greater inspiration than the forces allied against me and those for me. This is the story all art seeks to declare, a sculpture is worth ten thousand words.
