And that, Mr. Seurat,
is exactly Jesus' point.
Up close
it's just a bunch
of red and blue dots,
But from afar
it's a lighthouse,¹
shining on the sea.
When the world sees
individual believers united
by the gracious love of God,
It will then be able
to follow His light shining
the way home through the dark.
John 13:35, 17:11-23
Romans 15:5-6
Ephesians 4:3-13
¹'The
Lighthouse at Honfleur' by Georges
Seurat, 1886, an iconic
example of a
painting using the technique
called
Pointillism, in which small,
distinct
dots of color are applied
in patterns
which form larger overall
images. |
