It's Mealtime!


Hello All,

Toon Troop has been hard at work working on animation soon to be featured on the website. In the meantime, check out the latest design. It's called "Mealtime", and there's actually a nice little back story with this one. One morning a couple of weeks ago, I was heading to work and had a few things on my mind. I was walking down a New York City street and was thinking on the Lord. I prayed to Him and in my prayer asked if He could give me some sort of indication, some encouragement that my prayer would be answered. Immediately after the prayer ended I heard a noticeable chirp, chirp, chirp as if something was trying to get my attention. I looked down and saw this little bird eating off of the ground in the midst of a busy rush hour sidewalk. Believe it or not, seeing that reassured me, because the scripture Luke 12:22-24 came to mind whereas Jesus encourages his disciples that they shouldn't worry about where things should come from, whether it's food, clothing etc. If the Father tends to the needs of the simplest creatures such as birds, surely He can and will tend to the needs of all that call unto Him, so why worry, the birds don't. I saw that and took encouragement from it, as simple as it was, I took it as a "still small voice from the Lord" and thanked Him for it. I felt that this would be a great inspiration for a design, I hope you all enjoy it.


Best,


Thomas
