“This painting best represents life as I know it. I'm a sinner living in the darkness of a broken world. Even in this darkness, there is still beauty. But I'm not left there. When I look toward the Light as my way through, and out, of the darkness, I can rest in that and live in this present darkness not with fear, but with hope. I then live by the Spirit that fills me with good things. Not just full, but to overflowing. I'm still a sinner. I still live in the darkness. But I'm forgiven. And I live in peace.” -David Arms
