What does it mean to be a child of God? Dating all the way back to Noah and Abraham, God created covenants to bind His love and promise to those whom He counts His children. He made a covenant with David which He fulfilled through Jesus, and Jesus made a covenant with us believers by His blood. In this lesson, we will learn what it means to be a child of God, bound by His covenant with us.
In the first lesson (Portrait), we will choose a child of God, someone whose faith we look up to in our life or in the Bible, whose portrait we want to see in black and white charcoal. I did a portrait of my husband, Dennis Allen, a beautiful man of God I admire for many reasons. I also did one of St. Peter as I have always been fascinated by his faith and his letters in the New Testament. Both of these drawings were prayerful to meditations, as your drawing also will be to you.
