Our Heavenly Father - One Prayer at a Time

With all of the chaos that has been created over the past month I have been focused on our Heavenly Father intensely of late. Today I was reminded of a documentary, that I LOVE. The History Channels "The Real Face of Jesus from The Shroud of Turin"

I LOVE how science is used to prove Jesus is exactly who we all believe He was. For those who want proof. For those who claim to need tangible evidence of the miracle of the Resurrection, here it is. 


But that got me thinking. I watched "Heaven is for Real" when it was released in theaters and I loved it. And when I saw the painting that Akiane Kramarik did, it stirred something in my soul. Something that says truth. So I began wondering, how similar are the two portrayals? They each claim to be actual portrayals of Christ. If they are both are truly genuine, it would stand to reason the two images would resemble one another. So, I googled images of both... Below are the images side by side.....



































Look at the facial structure. The nose, cheekbones, brow bones. The portrayals of Christ are SO similar. The resemblance is undeniable. When looking at the two images, my heart and soul are filled with warmth and love. 

I spoke recently about looking to Him in hard times. But in order to look to Him, you need to know Him. For some we need a face, though in the scriptures we are told in faith we will "know" Him by His presence. But to see His Face, His bright eyes looking back at me, it fills my soul with peace, knowing through Him and His Father in Heaven, my Father in Heaven, all things are possible. I am so thankful for His sacrifice.I know I can overcome my challenges, Climb my Mountains, and will keep focusing .... One Prayer at a Time.
