so I found out this amazing tip on how to make your art glow
1. draw something (u can practice by drawing white on black )
for example, a heart
2. duplicate the drawing (heart in this case) do NOT move it
3. go to "Filter" in the top toolbar (make sure that you are in the duplicated layer)
4. find "Gaussian blur"
5. adjust the glow lighting
if it's not glowing enough, you can set the Gaussian blur to 100% (in the duplicated layer), click save, duplicate the duplicated layer (heh), and then it glows more now

soooo yes
please have fun, take care!! :>

"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

listen to this story<33

Imagine there was once a king, who was known to be the most loving and just king in the world. He judged everything fairly, and he was right in all he did.
But then, there came a time when he found out that someone was stealing the palace treasures. He had to find out who the thief was!
He ordered a sentence of ten lashes from a whip for the thief. But then time passed, and more treasures were being stolen. The punishment then changed to 40 lashes---and that already means death, so that means he ordered a death sentence.
Then, the thief was revealed. But, as it turned out, it was the king's very own children---the prince and princess---who were stealing the treasures!
What should he do now? If he punished his children, he wouldn't be loving. But if he didn't, he wouldn't be just.
He chose to punish his children. So there they were, about to get the 40 lashes...
...when all of a sudden---
"Stop!"
The king came down from his throne and wrapped his arms around his children.
"Now hit them," he said.
"But sir," the man with the whip protested, "I can't hit them without hitting you."
"Hit them," the king insisted.
So he did, hitting the king's back 40 times.
And there and then---he died.
Because he was just, he ordered the punishment.
But because he was loving, he took the punishment. He couldn't bear to see his children die.

That is what the Gospel is like. God is real, and He is the most loving and just King in the universe. But the people He loves sinned, and we had to be punished. Even one sin is enough for us to be punished... in hell.
But God didn't want that.
So He sent His Son, Jesus, to take our punishment on the cross.
Because He is loving and just.
But there is another thing! Jesus is NOT dead. Because He is the true God, He rose up back to life after 3 days and conquered death forever!!

I hope everyone understands the love He has for us
It's your choice now---to accept His love, or not

Today I learned about a historic story :) and I'd like to tell u about it

May 29, 1914. The day a passenger ship sank in 14 minutes—the RMS Empress of Ireland.
But on board were heroes—heroes to be remembered. They were called The Salvation Army. Around 150–170 members of The Salvation Army were there, but sadly, only a few have survived.
But why only a few? They were on a floor on the ship where there were lifejackets! They could easily pick them up, wear them, and swim out to safety.
However, look at what they did. They handed their lifejackets to others who didn't! They would rather let the other person live than their own selves.
But they did more things than that...
There was this event when a young girl gave a bigger man her lifejacket. The man thought, Why is this young girl giving me this? He threw the jacket back to her. Then the girl asked, "Are you a Christian?"
He said no. The girl said, "I am ready to die—I know I am going to heaven. But you need to live."
After that, the man said that he was saved twice that day. Saved from the waters—and saved from his sin.
The Salvation Army spread the Gospel. They would share the truth about Jesus to one person, then move on to the next. Some of them were praying for others, too. They shared Jesus to all the people they could—until the waters rose... turning colder...
...and they drowned.
Let's remember the courageous Salvation Army this upcoming May. They'd rather die, sharing the Gospel, than live without sharing. Why would they do that?
Because it's the truth.
It's not too late now to know Jesus and be saved

God bless!

Poor thing must be so bored
I love cats!! :>

Trying to do anime even though it wears me out in like half an hour
I _am_ a slow artist :3

I think it's nice despite the lack of detail :)

p.s. Jesus loves u

Sometimes problems arise, and it feels like you are on a small boat in the midst of thrashing waters. But with Jesus, He walks on the water and stretches out His hand to help you—all you have to do is take it.

When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown.
— Isaiah 43:2
(This means that God will be with you if you go through problems, if you will just accept Him and have faith in Him!)

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good.
— Romans 8:28
(This means that God makes all things—all, including pain and problems and burdening times—to work for His people's good. To work for those who love God. So, their pain can turn into something good, like a testimony that strengthens someone's faith!)

It's not yet too late, Jesus loves you

Flower :)
Any other color outside of the palette is because of the blend tool

P.S. Jesus loves you!

60 years is approximately 21,900 days
How will you spend 21,900 days?

Time flies very quickly
soon Judgment Day is coming

Jesus said:
"Not everyone who calls me 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only those who do what My Father wants them to do. When the Judgment Day comes, many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord! In Your name we spoke God's message, by Your name we drove out many demons and performed many miracles!' Then I will say to them, 'I never knew you. Get away from Me, you wicked people!'
- Matthew 7:21-23 (GNB)

but God is waiting... waiting for you to repent, to come near to Him
He loves you so much He suffered and died while wickedness was in us, but He was raised to life!
if you will only repent, accept Him as Lord and Savior, your sin (evilness, badness, shame, past mistakes) will be washed away, and you can move on from a shameful/regretful past
and then you will find
true joy and Love

Are fears and anxieties overwhelming you? Do you feel that no one loves you? Because that is not true.

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
Yet not one of them will fall
to the ground outside your Father's care.
... So don't be afraid; you are worth
more than many sparrows.
- Matthew 10:29, 31 (NIV)

Believe in Him!

turtle :3

fun fact: Did you know that the Painted Turtle species can go through winter by partially freezing? Even its heart "freezes!" Then, in spring, they thaw and swim off as if nothing ever happened

p.s. Jesus loves you!
