Swimming in the Deep by Kirsten Borror
2011 Acrylic 6x13
On October 12 my horizon changed from surfing happy and free to being dumped off the surfboard, falling into the dark deep. It's been a wrenching journey. I no longer can think beyond today. There is no place now for imagining because fear brings me to the worst. For now, I am sustained by swimming in the depths of His mercy. He doesn't fail to answer my questions, or to give me peace. His gifts come each day as I pick out an ugly thorn of bad attitude in obedience to His command to love others no matter what, to thank Him no matter what, and to trust Him. |
