Dreams
The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He
found Philip and said to him, "Follow me." Now Philip was from
Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip found Nathanael and said to
him, "We have found him about whom Moses in the law and also the prophets
wrote, Jesus son of Joseph from Nazareth." Nathanael said to him,
"Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him,
"Come and see." When Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, he said
of him, "Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!"
Nathanael asked him, "Where did you get to know me?" Jesus answered,
"I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you." Nathanael
replied, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"
Jesus answered, "Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under
the fig tree? You will see greater things than these." And he said to him,
"Very truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened and the angels of God
ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

Dr. He Qi was a professor
at the Nanjing Union Theological Seminary and a tutor for master candidate
students in the Philosophy Department of Nanjing University. He is also a
member of the China Art Association and a council member of the Asian Christian
Art Association.
He has been committed to
the artistic creation of modern Chinese Christian Art since 1983. He hopes to
help change the "foreign image" of Christianity in China by using
artistic language, and at the same time, to supplement Chinese Art the way
Buddhist art did in ancient times. In his works, He Qi has blended together
Chinese folk customs and traditional Chinese painting techniques with the
western art of the Middle and Modern Ages, and has created an artistic style of
color-on-paper painting.

Lila, at
Life Care Center of Evergreen on Friday,
calls her
painting “Our Home in the Dirty Thirties.”
She had a
lot to say about the Dust Bowl times,
but didn’t
want to smile because she had left her teeth in her room.
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the
light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.
