1 Chronicles 16:11,12 NKJV
seek the LORD and all His strength; seek His face evermore! Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgements of His mouth.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Life gives us some events that we can't control. People die, Disasters strike, love fades, jobs get lost, illness comes, and the list goes on...
We always want to fix any problem quickly, But oftentimes they are beyond our level of strength and understanding.
It is in those moments that we must humble ourselves before God, admit our weakness and ask for His help. Part of seeking the LORD is reading His word and spending time in prayer. As we become more familiar with with God's word, we will be able to recall His promises quickly. Oftentimes certain scriptures will come to mind that provide comfort for us in a bad situation.
I find it hard to worry when I am immersed in worship. Take some time to sit still and find a quiet place with no distractions. Spend that quiet time recognizing God's greatness and His glory. Express your pleasure and praise to the God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is our comforter, Who promises to walk by our side so that we never have to face troubles alone.
[Joshua 1:9]- Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor dismayed, For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.///
Every believer can lean on this one awesome promise! No matter what we face, We are to take courage, believe Him, and do exactly as He says.
If you have never trusted Jesus Christ as your personal savior. Now is the time. Confess your sin, admit your faults and humbly ask for His forgiveness. [ Romans 10:9]- That if you confess with your mouth the LORD Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.///
Seek Him, Draw strength and wisdom from Him. Trust In Him.

China. Yunnan. Shangri-la Old Town. Dukezong.
On the Old Town Square is the scripture chamber (Gucheng Zangjingtang), which was earlier a Red Army Memorial hall to commemorate the Red Army's long march in the 1930s. At the opposite end of this hall, across the street is the Gulshan Park (Gulshan Gongyuan), which has a monastery with a commanding view of the town and its surroundings.
A nice big stone tablet.. which my great self proclaimed knowledgable wise guy dost Jitu says is written in the language of Pali...
k pass...
There's three of these and they're options for a poster for a friends wall, I need a quick artistic appraisal, some constructive criticism etc on which one to choose. If you have/know of any other images that'd work well with this scripture please let me know.
Thanks loads everyone.

Here's the piece that I submitted for the ChangePoint Artist Community's First Friday Art Show.
"...because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death." - Romans 8:2
Dongba scriptures are believed to be as old as the inscriptions on bones and tortoise shells from the Shang Dynasty (16th century - 11th century BC).
He led you through the vast and dreadful desert, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venemous snakes and scorpions.
Deut. 8:15
I found this as I was walking by the river at Belper, I managed to dig it out. I've written scripture verses on it as it reminded that the heart without God is a heart of stone. Hard against Him and His word. But God can change a stony heart.
Ezekiel 36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
2 Corinthians 3:3 clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.

Pali Chanting in 2006 and the forthcoming Pali Tipitaka Recitation in 2008.
In 2006, Maha Bodhi Society of India made elaborate arrangements to celebrate the 2550th Buddha Jayanti that marks Sakyamuni Buddha's Birth, Enlightenment and Mahaparinirvana (passing away).
The year-long programme was started from Kolkota, or formerly Calcutta, where Anagarika Dhammapala, the founder of the Society launched and steered the Buddhist revival movement 115 years ago.
A 3-day ‘International Conference on Humanism’ was held from January 7-9 at Science City, Kolkota. The conference saw a huge participation of delegates from all spheres of life.
The Buddha Jayanti celebrations were carried forward through a week-long celebration at Buddhagya from February 13th to 19th, 2006. The Inaugural ceremony was held at Kalchakra Maidan in Buddhagaya. The month-long Tripitaka chanting was also inaugurated at the sacred Maha Bodhi tree in Maha Bodhi Vihara, Buddhagaya. A number of seminars were organized including the International Buddhist Seminar, International Homoeopathic Seminar, Inter-Religious Conference and International Buddhist Cultural programme at Kalchakra Maidan in Buddha Gaya.
Thus, the most historic of all the Maha Bodhi Society acitivities was the revival of Tipitaka's Pali Chanting. The most important practice in the Theravada tradition would now be organised annually during February.
Now that in 2007 the World Tipitaka Edition in Roman script was presented and permaently enshrined in the Maha Bodhi Society Temple, Dhamma Society has made a full support for the forthcoming 2008 Pali Tipitaka Recitation among international lay devotees.
These pictures of past chating activities 2006 are from Maha Bodhi Society of India.

Here is a scene from inside the First Presbyterian Church in central Montana. This church was built in the 1890's and has exquisite craftsmanship inside, including detailed stained glass work which is over a century old. The chapel is built theatre style with elevated seating. Truly a great photographic experience, along with pleasant parishioners as well.
I am offering free artwork with encouraging scripture for anyone who may want it in this uncertain economic time. Take comfort in knowing God cares for you and wants to help.
