Child of the King

I am thankful to be a child of the King of Kings

I find my place of safety and refuge underneath His wings

The God of Israel is my beloved friend

This is an eternal friendship that will never end

 

The LORD Jesus is powerful and He is on my side

The Holy Spirit dwells in me and is my faithful guide

The LORD only has my best interests at heart

He remains faithful, so we shall never be apart

 

The LORD makes me courageous and ever so strong

It's to Him, that I belong!

He makes my paths straight before me as I trust in Him

He has washed me in His blood and cleansed me from my sin!

 

His forgiveness is amazing, His mercy it is sure

To every situation, Jesus is the cure!

He guards my heart with purity, His burden is so light

In the LORD Jesus Christ, I take all my delight!

 

He is my beloved, the strength of my soul

He fights for my freedom and makes me whole

He pleads my case and rights my wrongs

He fills me with His glory songs

 

The LORD never leaves me, for He is devoted

In the Lamb's Book of Life, there my name is noted

Purchased by the blood, the gift of grace

Soon I shall meet my Saviour face to face!

 

The LORD is good and merciful and He is just

It is in His name that I put my trust

While there is breath in my lungs, I will serve the LORD Jesus Christ

For He is the Way, the Truth and the Life

 

Nothing can compare to the LORD's great glory

He is mighty, He is strong and He is holy

Great are His works, I will remember all that He has done

He will finish what He started; He will complete what He has begun

 

The LORD does not give up on anyone

The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come!"

Heaven is eternal and is not too far away

Jesus will take me there and keep me safe I pray

 

Life can be so good when you put Jesus first

Because I believe in Him, I shall never thirst

I shall not hunger for Jesus is the bread of life

I place my faith in His sacrifice

 

There is no greater love, there is no greater joy

All of the devil's works He shall destroy

He preserves my soul and watches over me

He delivers and sets my spirit free!

In response to the current war taking place, I created a painting in support of the Ukrainian people. I've been deeply saddened by the current events taking place in the world but despite it all, I know that hope still exists and is available for everyone and God is still on His throne. There is a hope that is even beyond death, suffering and pain. An everlasting hope of a new heaven and earth, without all these things, as promised in God's word. Temporary suffering cannot be compared to eternal joy. Jesus told us that in the end times, there would be wars and rumours of wars. Jesus told us these things beforehand so that in Him we may have peace and know that He knows about all these things and above it all.

Jesus said, "I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” ~ John 16:33

'United By Love' is a painting from the heart of God. In a world that is divided by war, greed, hatred and fear. It's love that united us. Love triumphs over fear, hate, darkness and evil. I have painted the national flower of Ukraine which is the sunflower and I have painted love birds to represent the country being united by love, despite the war. 

All proceeds for this painting will be going towards the Ukraine humanitarian appeal with Christian Aid. The original painting is available to buy on my online shop under 'original paintings'.
