Missions
in Nepal
We
are currently engaged in helping a church in Nepal. Edith Bilang
(one of our members) has been using her artistic abilities to help
raise money for the work in Nepal.
Below
is a picture of her work. These paintings will be sold and the
money sent to help the church, widows, and orphans in Nepal.
If you look closely, you can discern that this painting is
actually made up of 22 smaller paintings.
Each of the paintings represent a verse from Psalm 33.
Click anywhere on the image below to see a closeup of each smaller
picture (along with the artist notes).
Artist notes: In have seen some of the recurring themes
in every verse of
rejoicing in God, praising Him, trusting Him, and waiting on Him.
My comfort rests in the Lord Jesus Christ and counting on His
mercies. I hope that even though in a very small way, your heart
will be blessed.
We are only pilgrims
on this earth. We all look for the day when we will never stop
from praising and singing hallelujahs to our King, in a place where
there will be no more sickness and pain (heaven). God's eyes are
upon us, as we go through life's journey and serve in ways we can.

1
- Sing for joy in the LORD, O
you righteous ones; Praise is becoming to the upright.
2 - Give
thanks to
the LORD with the lyre; Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.
3 - Sing to
Him a new
song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.
4 - For the
word of
the LORD is upright, and all His work is done in faithfulness.
5 - He loves
righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of
the LORD.
6 - By the
word of
the LORD the heavens were made, and by the breath of His mouth all
their host.
7 - He gathers
the
waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deeps in
storehouses.
8 - Let all
the earth
fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
9 - For He
spoke, and
it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
10 - The LORD
nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the
peoples.
11 - The counsel of
the LORD stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to
generation.
12 - Blessed is the
nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom He has chosen for His own
inheritance.
13 - The LORD looks
from heaven; He sees all the sons of men;
14 - From His
dwelling place He looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15 - He who fashions
the hearts of them all, He who understands all their works.
16 - The king is not
saved by a mighty army; A warrior is not delivered by great strength.
17 - A horse is a
false hope for victory; Nor does it deliver anyone by its great
strength.
18 - Behold, the eye
of the LORD is on those who fear Him, on those who hope for His
lovingkindness,
19 - To deliver their
soul from death and to keep them alive in famine.
20 - Our soul waits
for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
21 - For our heart
rejoices in Him, because we trust in His holy name.
22 - Let Your
lovingkindness, O LORD, be upon us, according as we have hoped in You.
