The Interruption of God
By Ramone - February 24, 2009
The "brown" surrounding is my "box", and He is reaching into it to tap me on the shoulder and take me OUT of my box! I'm busy trying to "do my thing" with my hands, my "works", and He knows the truth that I'm actually keeping myself in a box. I'm doing what I want to do, and in that way trying to keep "my territory" and "my freedom", following "my wants". It feels (or seems to feel) free, but the Guy reaching into my box is tapping me to tell me in His love that I'm actually not free ("Hey, you're in a cardboard box!"), and if I die to what I want to control and do, I will be truly free.

Hi Ramone,
I love this painting. It reminded me that I can be so focused on my little all-consuming activities that I forget Christ in the moment. Thankfully, He never forgets me and is always willing to "interrupt" me.
Can you explain "The Imprint of Christ" to me? Are those nails in His feet?
I love your work.
