Little Ones

Matthew 18:6--"But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea."
This is very graphic and I think we should be aware of what an impact we have when we encourage our little ones to sin. We parents who act sinfully in front of our children and grandchildren are not going unnoticed by them, nor are we hiding our sins from God. He knows exactly what's going on and we need be aware that our children WILL mimic us--good or bad--and our God will see that "our sins will find us out."

This art is based on a 3" x 5" spiral-bound notebook on which I adhered a copy of a vintage image and other ephemera, old text and dress pattern tissue. I etched in gel medium and highlighted with gold paint and added fun yarn, ribbon and jewelry dangles.
