“And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭4:2-3‬ ‭KJV‬‬ . . Being “in the throne” means everything is in order and under control. “Rainbow” signifies a promise of hope. #revelationseries lesson . . We do have our individual trials and hardships in life. And sometimes we become anxious and hopeless. But fear not! God is in control of everything and we need not to worry and in Him we have the promise of hope. So when everything in your life is chaotic just “be still and know that He is God.”— Psalms 46:10 #revelationseries #godisincontrol #promiseofhope #mispevill #lightroom (at Singapore) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpUl3-SAfEf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ify04hrftqv8

OUR PRAYERS ARE ON THE ALTAR OF GOD Revelation 8:3 #incense #altar #peterolsenartgallery #angels #angel #burning #prayers #before #beforeandafter #penandink #revelationseries #greatness #hanginthere #peterolsenart

Two reasons why we tend to lose love: we become too busy working hard and too focused on what was wrong. The solution? Go back to where it all began, to where we have first fallen. Remember the time when God won you over. #sundayhomily #revelationseries #firstlove

14. "romance is a funny thing. it can manifest so differently in different people; some of us are inherently inclined to give ourselves fully, while others are so obstinate, so skeptical in the face of love. we're not all romantics, yet we are all waiting for it. in love, we live for these very small moments with another human when the world stops - waking up in their arms, sharing a meal at a nice restaurant, rubbing their back after an accident. at the same time, it can devour and distract you; force you to question everything you know; and compel you to completely discount the very real consequences of vulnerability. and, in the end, it's what we all really want: those connections that render all accolades, job offers, etc. irrelevant. we want those hugs from behind, those personal emails, that vulnerability, those genuine smiles. because, in the end, why does it matter what we do when we have no support in someone else? why pursue some contrived notion of success when we have no one to celebrate with? why even contemplate the possibility of living your life alone?" wise words from a good friend 

13. if you are optimistic, patient, and proactive everything you want in life will come to you. don't take advantage of anything, and never underestimate any situation or individual. 

12. no matter what happens: natural or man-made disasters, self-righteous terrorists or destructive hurricanes, new yorkers come together as a family. Bloomberg said it best -- "New Yorkers always stick together and look out for each other, and I know we will do so again". 

11. there is no such thing as "crazy" or "insane" anymore...at least not the stigmas we are used to attaching them to. emaciated thin is sought after, the man 'talking to himself' is merely speaking into his iphone smart headphones, daring fashion moves are revered and the rich often look homeless, manic episodes are edgy and cool. free-for-all society: i salute you.

10. as much as you may miss your keyboard, scrolling ball, BBM, and color coated blinking notifier of your beloved blackberry, iphones are an absolute necessity. google maps will save your life every hour, and a constant stream of your favorite tunes eases into a telephone call with a flick of the wrist and a click of your headphone strings. the luckiest (and most important aka fabulous) ones have both.
