This title says "reaching out" - it is me in my desperation reaching out to God...it is God reaching out to me in all of His glorious facets of grace. It is like flowers seeking the life-giving light of His presence, it is like every fiber of my being reacting to His beauty. The painting I had in mind at first looked much more harsh and desperate than this looks...but as I painted on, it was the beauty of desire that came out. Beauty is what remains.
