HIDDEN PLACES

24 x 36 Oil, Hidden Places, © St Germain
LAST VISION 0f this series

These 12 visions began at at night
and ended approx 3:15 am
Had the feeling I had run a marathon.

The next day I avoided even allowing
myself to think or pray, since I had much
to chew on and even know how to
process all these visions.

What I heard with this vision
“My people will soar like the eagles,
nest in the mountains
discover hidden streams, find nourishment
they will be a separate people
full of hope and light.”

The significance was that during  these visions, 
I lived in one of the suburbs of of Los Angeles
with heavy traffic during the day in my street,
leading up to South Coast Plaza
There was nothing that I could have foreseen
times of 2020 and 2021 with suppression of
daily freedoms, rising inflation, and increase
of suicide.
Now I can see the need for these hidden places
living in freedom of life and of choice.

Forgot which time of the year these bloomed

    1. Thank you Janet. Referring to painting, this was probably the easiest one. Now in this time I have been wondering with a culture that is increasingly becoming more hateful to Christians, how to protect ourselves. I have read of being protected in unknown/hidden communities. When reading Ps. 91 it seems to support that idea. The view of the duckies was a stroke of “luck!”

    1. Thank you Riitta! This was actually an easy painting, maybe because I have much practice painting rocks since we went for 18 years to a National park with mountains and waterfalls.

  1. “My people will soar like the eagles,
    nest in the mountains … ”
    While reading this text I have to think of the American natives … or of indigenous people in general … Your painting is very expressive. I also see a head in the rock – it reminds me of the Moai heads on Easter Island.
    The ducklings are really adorable.
    I also didn’t understand before what was so special about the Mona Lisa. But it’s actually fascinating. If you look at the picture, it looks like Mona Lisa is looking back. No matter where you stand: the lady always ist lookin in you eyes. This has to do with da Vinci’s painting technique. He painted the background and the woman from two different angles. And why is she smiling so mysteriously? That will remain a bit of a mystery … Perhaps that is why mankind is so fascinated by it.
    All the best

    1. Kirsi, this week I visited more of the people at Makro-Tex. I should do that more often. But Tue is kind of a crunched day where I try to fit it all in:):) I loved the colors of the sky too!
