So I just had an idea for a painting that I think would be pretty cool. If any of you feel like tackling it, be my guest. Imagine a gold medal, big and shiny and round, on an embroidered blue ribbon. Now imagine it lying discarded on a road paved with gold bricks. Up the road you see the silhouettes of two figures walking into a bright light. Green trees line each side of the road. It symbolizes how once we reach Heaven, our earthly trophies and honors will be discarded as worthless. They'll be as valuable as the road we'll walk upon. While we, on the other hand, will have achieved the greatest prize of enjoying Jesus forever.
