He is My Rose of Sharon

This was inspired by the idea of Christ as the Rose Of Sharon his sweetness, The Cross, his thorny crown and the Holy Spirit descending like a dove. I was also reading the Song of Solomon 2. That is a very passionate book. I have posted it to ebay this week. Rose of Sharon the plant is Hibiscus syriacus. It isn't a rose, but its large, flat blossoms and nectar attract hummingbirds and tiny insects that hummers also eat

The Burning Bush and The Angel

My visual interpretation of Moses encounters the Angel in the burning bush . This is an abstract painting

Exodus 3:1-2
1Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb.
2And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
