I picked the "Circe Invidiosa" by John William Waterhouse.
I'm going to be honest and let go of the raw fact that I've been avoiding to think about this theme since it has been drawn out at the beginning of this project. I am completely opposites to the kind of paintings that appeal to my heart the most, but I had inevitably to pick a painting with a human presence in it, or it would be too abstract and it would be too hard to possibly physically represent it.
I've been wanting to do a recreation of Ophelia since I started to take self-portraits. As I was almost deciding to go into a small lagoon for it, I had to adult and accept that has been way too cold lately and without assistance it was going to be almost impossible to be left happy with the result so I picked yet another option - which inevitably also included stepping into cold waters while raining a lot. It seems I never learn.
And in fact I selected two paintings and recreated both but this is the one I decided to pick for this week's theme. The other one will be shared during the next few days, possibly, or sometime soon.
I find J.W. Waterhouse a painter so modern for its age. I love the way he portrays women. They are not always fragile as most painters from the 19th century would portray them - they are portrayed importantly and godly, as if in the center of the story, the protagonists of it. They are fierce and emotional and quite magnificent by emanating those atributes instead of just the most obvious ones such a beauty or wealth.
I love it how accurately timeless the characters seem to be in his paintings. They could have been painted yesterday. They are so feminine and bold and strong. His paintings are mystical, but yet they are so current as well. And I find that to be quite refreshing for a Pre-Raphaelite painter. To be honest I do not know much about paintings, but his work always spoke to me somehow and I decided to go with his depiction of Circe. A strong, bold, powerful character.
If I could pick something to suddenly, out of the blue, be able to excel at, it would probably be painting. It's magical. 🌿

Introduction
It is recorded clearly in the Bible that the Lord Jesus is Christ, that He is the Son of God. Yet theEastern Lightning testifies that the incarnate Christ is the manifestation of God, that He is God Himself. So is the incarnate Christ the Son of God? Or is He God Himself? Almighty Go says, "'Jesus is the beloved Son of God, in whom He is well pleased'.... That was God bearing witness to Himself, but merely from a different perspective, that of the Spirit in heaven bearing witness to His own incarnation. Jesus is His incarnation, not His Son in heaven. Do you understand? Do not the words of Jesus, 'The Father is in Me and I am in the Father,' indicate that They are one Spirit? And is it not because of the incarnation that They were separated between heaven and earth? In reality, They are still one; no matter what, it is simply God bearing witness to Himself"

Lin Bo'en is an old preacher who has believed in the Lord for many decades. Since accepting Almighty God, Christ of the last days, he was convicted, excluded, and expelled from the religious community by the pastors and elders, the antichrist forces. But even though Lin Bo'en was attacked, convicted, and framed, he did not shrink back in fear. Rather, his faith became more resolute than ever, and this led him to finally understand that the pastors and elders of the religious world were faking a virtuous appearance. At the same time, he came to know that only Christ is the truth, the way, and the life, and only Christ can save and purify and perfect man. Because of this, he was resolved to follow Christ, bear witness for Christ, and do his utmost to pursue the truth, to seek to transform his disposition so that he could become a true witness for God. Once the Chinese Communist Party discovered that Lin Bo'en was released from prison and had not changed, that he had not renounced his faith in the slightest bit and even believed in the Eastern Lightning , that he went everywhere to testify that the Lord Jesus had come again and that He was Almighty God, the CCP listed him as wanted and went to arrest him. Lin Bo'en was forced to leave his family, and in each place he testified to Almighty God's work in the last days, he was able to lead a lot of sincere, good-natured believers to God's side. This video gives an account of Lin Bo'en's true story of spreading the gospel and testifying for God.

A strong row of Garudas hold centre stage on the outer wall of the Wat Pho temple in Bangkok.
Thailand is a Buddhist country but there are a lot of Hindu motifs abound in the architecture and culture of the kingdom.
Garuda is depicted as a bird, a raptor, with immense power and capable of violence and in Hinduism is regarded as the vehicle of Vishnu. Reference to Garuda abound in the early Hindu literature as well as in the epic Mahabharata.
In Buddhism, Garuda appears as an eagle form and Buddha is supposed to have intervened in the constant strife between the Eagles and the Serpents. What this mythological parable has to do with philosophical semblance of existence, I am afraid, I do not know.
What is captivating is the long row of identical Garudas that stretch along the side of the temple. It is difficult to get a shot without a human being in the frame as the number of visitors thronging the area is enormous. I was lucky.
This was shot handheld at f16 at 1/25 sec and thankfully the godly spirits and creatures were co operating to give a steady frame.

Gospel Movie Clip "The Mystery of Godliness: The Sequel" (2) - How to Understand God Incarnate
In the last days, God has become flesh to work to save man. But because we don't understand the truth of the incarnation, we regard God incarnate as the same as an ordinary person, we cannot recognize God's voice and we know even less how to welcome the Lord—to the point where we are even able to follow the religious world and ruling powers to defy and condemn God—the situation becomes no different from when God incarnated as the Lord Jesus to do His work of the Age of Grace. It appears, therefore, that understanding the truth of the incarnation is key to our knowing God. So what exactly is the incarnation? What is the essence of the incarnation?

6 But godliness cwith contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of iall kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

Playing with over and under-exposure as well as metering of the scene while trying to minimize my exposure to the cold wind at my beach, I was able to capture this moody shot.
It was taken with the Nikon D300 with NO editing or color changes or processing in Photoshop, except adding a frame and making it square as I do not do too many square photo uploads.

The Lord Jesus Has Come Back | Gospel Movie "The Mystery of Godliness"

Lin Bo'en was an elder at a house church in China. During all his years as a believer, he felt honored to suffer for the Lord, and valued the knowledge and attainment of the Lord Jesus Christ above anything else in the world. One fateful day, he went out to preach and heard some shocking news: The Lord Jesus has returned in the flesh, and He is Christ of the last days—Almighty God Lin Bo'en was puzzled. When the Lord returns, He is supposed to descend with the clouds, so why would He incarnate Himself and do His work in secret? What mysteries were hidden behind God's incarnation? If the Lord has truly returned, why haven't we been raptured? … An intense debate unfolds between Lin Bo'en and his co-workers and the preachers fromThe Church of Almighty God … Will they finally be able to understand that Almighty God is the return of the Lord Jesus, the appearance of God in the flesh?

Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us when we leave it. So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.
[1 Timothy 6:6-8 NLT]
5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)
2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)
3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)
4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)
5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)
Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!
