Hosea 6

I was asked to create a painting that illustrates a verse from Hosea (6:3).  This image illustrates the promise of the sun coming back out and rain showers watering the earth. The great flower in the sky is opening up like vents of a window, and pouring out a fresh spring rain. God promises us that He grips our desires and hopes firmly in His hands and releases those manifestations on the earth in the most perfect, ripe timing when the right season is aligned with himself. We may not understand his heart through the ripening process, but the outpouring of his fulfillment is so abundant and worth it. It is sure and unmoving and as vast as the ocean. Even when all we see is cloud, he is preparing the dawn…

“Let us know Him;

let us be zealous to know the Lord.

His going forth is prepared and certain as the dawn,

and He will come to us as the rain that waters the earth.”
