Jesus with Map

I decided to do a variation on Jesus with maps instead of hymns. It was fun deciding to put Jerusalem right in the middle of his forehead. The Bible says in Revelation 22:1-4 "Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3 No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. 4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads."

So, I figure the forehead is used for positive things as well as for the mark of the beast. (See Revelation 13:16) We forget that the enemy likes to imitate God, and we must take back what he stole.

Thought for the Day:
There must be a positive and a negative in everything in the universe, in order to complete a circuit or circle, without which there would be no activity, no motion.
