"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithful love endures forever."
Reflect on the glass within the artwork on the front cover. Is the glass half full or half empty? This is a familiar question, but for those who have faith in God, we thankfully can always answer that our glass is half full because our Lord is good and He faithfully cares for us! But, you say, the glass is half empty and the bowls are void of food, how can anyone give thanks for that? We all are tempted to worry and question God when our hopes seem to be evaporating and our lives seem empty. But let's remember what Jesus told his listeners, "Look at the lilies of the field. If God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, won't He more surely care for you?" Look at the painting again! The dinnerware is surrounded by a vase of flowers and a field of flowers. What we perceive as emptiness is surounded by God's promise of His faithfulness and care for us. While we are focused on our needs, God is faithfully preparing His answer of goodness. Did you notice the bowl full of grapes peeking in at the right hand side of the painting? An abundance of food that can both fill a bowl or be pressed to fill a glass. Are you struggling today? Look past the emptiness to see God's faithful promises surrounding you. Are you celebrating today? Then let's together "Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithful love endures forever."
