my second paintingi had to paint my sister
she's my one and only blood sister on this earth
she's the only other person who God thought will be the best to have
my mom and dad as her mom and dad
how special and amazing is that
we are only 17 months apart
she and i share more inner things than that of outer things
we look different on the outside, but we're so much alike inside
...
her skin tone is light
i'm dark
she's a science person
i'm a langauge person
she's independent
i'm dependent
she likes Greek food
i like Korean food
she likes cats
i like dogs
she likes orange
i like pink
she's into making traditional cards
i'm into making frame cards
she doesn't paint
i paint
she has a hard time falling asleep
i fall asleep the moment my head touches my pillow
she doesn't like to kiss and hug me
i like to kiss and hug her
she likes driving
i don't like driving
and the list goes on
BUT WE BOTH
love God more than we love our parents
love our parents so dearly
are devout Christians
are ready to be used by God
like talking
(4 hours of talking in bed is a piece of cake for us...kkk)
love music
love breyer's all-natural vanilla ice cream & golden spoon yogurt
like dduk-bbok-ki
need solitude time with God
like playing with kids
like to do silly dance
like to tell really bad jokes
enjoy sightseeing
and the list goes on again
the painting shows who i think my sister is
she's solid in her faith
she's deep in her faith
she's centered in God
she's deeply rooted in the Word and the truth of God
she's genuine
she's so strong outside,
but very gentle inside
the thorns on the outside may seem cold and mean,
but you'll know how sweet and thoughtful she is
on top of her personality that may seem rigid and selfish
she...
has her side like the flower
is beautiful
has her own fragrance of kindness and gentleness
has her own color and style
knows who she is
is good at guarding herself from the evil things
is weak
green-healthy mind and soul
yellow-dizzy and delightful
orange-joyful and silly
red-love for LORD our Christ Jesus
white-pure and reserved
that's who she is
that's my sister
that's my other self
that's joy ko-eun han
i love you, my beloved
Dear Father God,
thank you with all that i have for giving me Joy.
there's no other person who knows me better than my sister does other than You, my creator, and my parents who gave me life
continue to guide her and give her much wisdom as she matures in You and makes important decisions in her life.
protect her with Your mighty hands at all times.
in Jesus name i pray.
amen.
