Do you ever struggle at times to see God’s work evident in your life?
I know I do. How I long to see my daily life with eyes that can perceive God’s hand over the mundane. I want to see His gracious mercy and favor in the midst of my struggles. I want the work of my hands to mean something. And I want my children to see God lifted up in my own life, so they can understand it’s not just about getting by or doing what has to be done for the day.
It is not very often that I ever claim to receive a “word from the Lord,” but a few days ago on my birthday I felt the verse below was a special gift to me as God gave me words to pray what was within my heart:
Let your work be revealed to your servants and your glorious majesty to their children. And let the gracious favor of the Lord our God be on us; Confirm for us the work of our hands--Yes, confirm the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:16-17 (AMP)
How I Came Up With the Design
I wanted a sturdy majestic font to lead this piece in declaring the bold prayer. I offset that type with a more personal script font, in phrases that made the whole piece easier to read. The subtle color variations also served to break up the more lengthy passage and tie in the background. I chose the triangle diamond pattern instinctively; pieces building together to make something more significant. It seemed to reflect our day-to-day struggles in our life.
