"Ostensibly Unpremeditated"


So the afore mentioned project- COMPLETED!!

My buddies and I finished it on Sunday. The recipient was thrilled.

The outer verses that we chose were:

Psalm 139:16 -Romans 8:28 -Ephesians 2:10 -Philippians 1:6

I discovered a creative side I didn't know was there. The picture that I have posted really doesn't give the scope of the piece.

The large letters spell RANDOM. Though they are all within names of God or Christ. The letters are made out of Rocks, the Alpha/Omega sign, Grape Vines, a Door, a miniature Bible and real Lamb's hide. The piece is surrounded by those verses denoting God's hand on everything. So it appearsrandombut it really isn't. The center lines are 'random' colors. Though really they are the colors of the rainbow (minus indigo). That represents God's first convenant with man.

Ostensibly = plausible rather than demonstrably true or real -to all outward appearances -

Unpremeditated = made or done without previous thought or preparation

So the piece represents the fact that us humans look at life as just happening but miss the fact that God has his hand on it all.
