The evangelist is cupped in
the palm of God's hand
and is reaching out to rescue
a soul from certain death.
Text on image is -When you were falling,
I held you in My hand,
For I reached out and caught you at the cry of
A repentant heart.
I cradled you until you became whole again,
My jewel.
For like a child, you held out both hands to Me
And I pulled you out of the pit you had
Created for yourself.
As I had compassion on you,
I filled you with compassion for the lost as well.
Cradled in My hands, you became as My Hands
To reach out and lift them up to Me.
You are My evangelist.
He sent from above, He took Me, He drew me out of many waters -
Psalm 18:16
