Coloring of the Big Picture

 Coloring The Big Picture

I am a yellow painting stick, you are blue and she is pink!

to fill-in my God-given role, I have sufficient ink.

A small area here and a big area there

circle, oval, triangle and square.

Well done when you fill in your spaces

stepping out of the lines will be trespasses.

Fulfilment is in playing my role:

Everything else is heavy yoke.

If we use our strength and times:

To be painting outside our lines,

Our special paint we will lack,

and leave our spaces painted black! 

GOD in His grace fills in where I miss out:

All my transgressions His blood wipes out!

JESUS CHRIST, my Savior, His ink is red;

that turns my blacks into pure white instead.

He has graciously given me life today,

let me joyously fulfil my role, I pray.

I yield myself into Your hand:

To brightly paint the lives, You've planned.

Then when I stand before you one day,

"My faithful servant, well done," You'll say!

.. For we are His workmanship, 

created in Christ Jesus for good works, 

which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

Ephesians 2:9-10

And say to Archippus, 

"Take heed to the ministry 

which you have received in the Lord, 

that you may fulfill it."

Colossians 4:17

"Come now, and let us reason together," 

Says the Lord, 

"Though your sins are like scarlet, 

They shall be as white as snow; 

Though they are red like crimson, 

They shall be as wool.

Isaiah 1:18

 You are our epistle written in our hearts, 

known and read by all men; 

clearly you are an epistle of Christ, 

ministered by us, 

written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, 

not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, 

that is, of the heart.

2 Corinthians 3:2-3

 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; 

and may your whole spirit, soul, and body 

be preserved blameless 

at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

He who calls you is faithful, 

who also will do it.

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
