Story behind the artwork:
“Remember this: When you agree to serve someone as a slave, you have to obey that person as your master…”
(Romans 6:16)
I loved working on this piece & creating a balance between long stitches & the tiniest of stitches.
Sadly due to Covid-19 – there are so many worldly heedings out there – encouraging people not to think, not to do their own research, not to follow case studies & even genuine scientific reports. No to mind control!
But God has set us free indeed & He encourages us not to become slaves to the world – which is forcefully attempting to bring down all to it’s obedience. Through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, we do however receive the gift of discernment – to understand what is right or wrong.
The work is intricately stitched & took 4 weeks to complete.
