"Hunger and Thirst"- Nataly Paints - Acrylic Painting on canvas
I was inspired by WCHO music. They wrote a song named "Hunger and Thirst" and this painting goes along with that vision. Us as Christians how our hearts desire to be filled with God's Love and to be more like Him. But a lot of times we get caught up in everyday life and Jesus is trying to give us information in saying if you abide in me, He is the Living Water, He is the Bread of Life, and whoever drinks from Him will never thirst again. - Nataly Paints
John 4:1-15
"Who Will Deliver Me" - Nataly Paints - painting on a 16x40 canvas
I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it. Instead, I do what I hate. But if I know that what I am doing is wrong, this shows that I agree that the law is good. So I am not the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it. And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t. I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway. But if I do what I don’t want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; It is sin living in me that does it. I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. I love God’s law with all my heart. But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me. Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death? Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.
Romans 7:15-25 NLT

I sat down and search through my photos on my phone, I'm so drawn to landscapes so, this painting was based off of a photo I took while hiking in the Los Angels Forest. I didn't realize how much I need that, fresh air.
