Bowser expresses disappointment that the recent sculpture of himself did not truly portray his intersectionality, cisgender non-fluidity, or melanin-rich hue. Not only that, it portrayed him as a Vegan, which he is NOT. Oh Well. Happy Cat/Dogurday!

Bowser prefers the Neo-Classicist Style. His progress in Taste got Baroque some years ago.

However, I heard that he found a way to add a little color to this particular piece. I hear he is a whiz at that.

My Pleasure!

Since it snowed last night, I may go out and do a little art myself.

With my SHOVEL. LOL!

When God Intervenes

Bible in a Year:

Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm.

Psalm 105:15

In a poem titled “This Child Is Beloved,” Omawumi Efueye, known affectionately as Pastor O, writes about his parents’ attempts to end the pregnancy that would result in his birth. After several unusual events that prevented them from aborting him, they decided to welcome their child instead. The knowledge of God’s preservation of his life motivated Omawumi to give up a lucrative career in favor of full-time ministry. Today, he faithfully pastors a London church.

Like Pastor O, the Israelites experienced God’s intervention at a vulnerable time in their history. While traveling through the wilderness, they came within sight of King Balak of Moab. Terrified of their conquests and their vast population, Balak engaged a seer named Balaam to place a curse on the unsuspecting travelers (Numbers 22:2–6).

But something amazing happened. Whenever Balaam opened his mouth to curse, a blessing issued instead. “I have received a command to bless; he has blessed, and I cannot change it,” he declared. “No misfortune is seen in Jacob, no misery observed in Israel. The Lord their God is with them; . . . God brought them out of Egypt” (Numbers 23:20–22). God preserved the Israelites from a battle they didn’t even know was raging!

Whether we see it or not, God still watches over His people today. May we worship in gratitude and awe the One who calls us blessed.

By: Remi Oyedele

Reflect & Pray

How often do you stop to consider the daily protection God extends over you? What does the knowledge that He saves you from unseen dangers mean to you?

Father in heaven, forgive us for the many times we take Your care and protection for granted. Give us eyes to see how much You bless us.
