In lighthouse cafe today I did some micro paintings for people. Each painting had a symbol of the cross and on the back a mix of words that related to the way I then attached the painting to a key on a simple key ring. The words were:
- Seek
- Open
- Knock
- Ask
- Direct me
- The cross of Christ is the key to heaven
- Peace
While making them people joined the table with their coffee and cake and asked what I was doing and why. It was good to share a message of the cross and of that beautiful teaching where Jesus says, ‘Ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and the door will be opened.’
I was so pleased to give a key to a friend of mine who needed encouragement.
Here are some of the designs that I did. Very simple, yet they seemed to work as a symbol and gift to those that took some with them.
