Book of Daniel

The light shines out and drives the darkness away

The battles of life

Thinking outside the box

Thy Will be done

Doing some studying from a very important book to me; "Wild at Heart" by John Elderidge.

Some of the important movies and books to me

The tapes that play in your head...

Corinthians

The Secret Place

the large structure on the righthand page is a clue for the next three pages

St John of the Cross talks of "the Dark Night of the soul"

Daniels prays for interpretation of the King's dream

The lines on this page are those used by scribes in history to find the area to place text on a page, without rulers. They are "making the box to think inside of".

The boxes are now coming apart... thinking outside the box by "being transformed by the renewing of your mind" (romans)

C.S. Lewis observes that we say this to God, and He also says this to us...

things that have been said to you throughout your life... the brown stripe on the left page is symbolic of being under the "curse" or power of those tapes. The page on the right contrasts with that of Jesus' yoke being easy and His burden light

Props due to my friend Michael Clark whose lettering and design I continue to refer to and plagerize... this is my two page modification of his layout of the same text... his work can be seen here: www.alphabytes.com/michael_clark

From Oswald Chambers' My Utmost for His Highest... Jesus talks of praying in secret, not in public
