Art, for this Sunday's church auction supporting Rebecca's medical expenses. 'Meditation on Sunday June 21st Bible Study, Acts 17:10-15. Acrylic inks on paper.'

Painting, abstract cross, with calligraphy, "For the word of God is living and powerful and sharper than a two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the separation of soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intentions of the heart. - Hebrews 4:12"
