Sound of Thunder
Acrylic on canvas
305 mm diameter

He spreads the skies over unformed space, hangs the earth out in empty space. He pours water into cumulus cloud-bags and the bags don’t burst. He makes the moon wax and wane, putting it through its phases. He draws the horizon out over the ocean, sets a boundary between light and darkness.
.
Thunder crashes and rumbles in the skies. Listen! It’s God raising his voice!
.
By his power he stills sea storms, by his wisdom he tames sea monsters. With one breath he clears the sky, with one finger he crushes the sea serpent. And this is only the beginning, a mere whisper of his rule. Whatever would we do if he really raised his voice!
.
Indeed can anyone understand the spreading of cloud, the thunder of His canopy?
