Conservator & Restorer!
"Restore to me the joy of Your
salvation, and uphold me by
Your generous spirit."
Psalm 51: 12
Historian Patricia Millen was working on a book
about images depicting Washington’s crossing of
the Delaware when she saw a reference to a lost
painting. George Harding’s mural had once hung
in Trenton’s opera house, which was torn down
in 1969.
Millen finally found the huge painting stored in
a basement of another building. A conservator
carefully unrolled the painting. It showed signs
of damage and mold, but not only salvageable,
it can also be
restored and proudly displayed.
Many people feel forgotten, as if the painting
of their life is rolled up and wasting away in
a
basement somewhere. Not true! Perhaps you
have had rough patches, or maybe you feel
you’ve committed sins God cannot forgive.
Don’t underestimate His grace.
He's the divine Conservator and Restorer.
The blood of Christ will dissolve the mold,
restore the colors, and make your life
beautiful when you turn to Him.
No matter the sins of the past or the
sins we will commit in the future, we
can rejoice because God’s grace
covers
all our sin.
"The Son of God alone can restore
us to God, for He shed His
blood to
cleanse our sins and give us new
life."
