To Sheboygan with Love Print

the story This painting celebrates Sheboygan, the funny-sounding city on the shores of Lake Michigan, known for brats and surfing. But it also represents our prayers. Saying a prayer is like launching a message in a bottle into the ocean. Once it leaves your heart, you lose all control. You hope it reaches God, but once it floats out of sight, it’s easy for doubt to creep in: Did it get lost? Swallowed by a shark? Did it reach its destination only to be rejected or forgotten? You might be tempted to wonder how you could have been so foolish to trust in such an uncontrollable, unpredictable, mysterious method. My prayer to live on a lake was a message in a bottle. It floated out there for two decades, seemingly lost at sea. I was so weary from wondering what happened to it, I figured it would be easier, and less painful, to have never dreamed the dream at all. Maybe you have a prayer like that, a message in a bottle you’re certain is lost. I can’t tell you how your prayer will be answered, but I know for sure it’s not lost. It’s definitely not forgotten. Somehow, our prayers find our way back, with answers washing up on unexpected shores at unexpected times. But it’s always at exactly the right time and delivers exactly what we need, even if it looks different than we imagined. God will not let you miss your future. It takes faith to release a prayer into the great unknown, and that faith is always rewarded. product details This colorful artwork by Jason Kotecki comes in a variety of sizes. 16"x16" Gallery Canvas.
