Fancy Text: Jesus Said, Before Abraham Was Born, I Am Art

Fancy text:  Jesus said, Before Abraham was born, I AM
“The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.” (John 6:41, KJV)
Do not put bread in the picture but rather the setting is Jesus teaching in synagogue in Capernaum with the people looking disgruntled, some whispering to eat other and perhaps someone standing and speaking out to Jesus.
“The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.” (John 6:41, KJV)
And he (Jesus) said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes. 
(John 21:6 KJV)
First century Jerusalem at the "gate beautiful" to the temple grounds.  Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple that is called the Beautiful Gate to ask alms of those entering the temple. Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms. And Peter directed his gaze at him, as did John, and said, “Look at us.” And he fixed his attention on them, expecting to receive something from them. But Peter said, “I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!” And he took him by the right hand and raised him up, and immediately his feet and ankles were made strong.
In days to come I stood amazed, walking through that forest, at the blazing symphony of color it brought forth, seemingly just for me.  I grew to love my friend’s words in a new way, through the astounding beauty of the spectacle he knew was coming when he said them.  I was young then, and didn’t know I had many autumns ahead of me.

I sat, long ago, on an Asian hill with a Shakya Mundi friend, and watched the autumn leaves fall down from high above, giants in the forest casting off their wakefulness, falling progressively into winter’s long, white sleep. 

“The important thing to know about trees” he said, “is that they are most beautiful in autumn; just before the winter snow.  They live and grow through the entire year just for these brief moments of stunning beauty.  We are like that.” He said, “but we have only one autumn, and a very long winter.”
Jesus stands at the door and knocks
I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him is more than
I can see.
He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow—
Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller like an india-rubber ball,
And he sometimes goes so little that there’s none of him at all.
He hasn’t got a notion of how children ought to play,
And can only make a fool of me in every sort of way.
He stays so close behind me, he’s a coward you can see;
I’d think shame to stick to nursie as that shadow sticks to me!
One morning, very early, before the sun was up,
I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup;
But my lazy little shadow, like an arrant sleepy-head,
Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.

John 14:6 Jesus addressing His disciples at the last supper
First century Palestine.  Mid-morning in a rural area.  The sun is warm and the atmosphere is positive.  Jesus and His disciples walk along a country road that goes to Bethany. There are some trees shading part of the road ahead, and cultivated fields on either side of the road.  Jesus, wears ordinary clothing like most men, and He’s talking to His disciples as the walk along.  The disciples are listening intently to Jesus, and His face is kind, but intense.  A farm house sits off to one side, and the town is visible in the distance.
First century Palestine.  Jesus walks away from the camera down a road that goes through town with several of His disciples.   Jesus wears a plain robe like most ordinary men.  The other people are dressed like peasants, farmers, and tradesmen.  There are also women in the group, wearing plain, everyday clothing.  Some children are playing near the roadside.  The Sea of Galilee shines in the far distance.

Merchants are selling their goods in booths along the road.  There are houses along the road also.  The road goes upward toward the Temple in the far distance.
First century Palestine.  An evening scene on a rooftop in Bethlehem.  The summer air is warm and the evening light is soft.  Jesus, wearing ordinary clothing like most men wear, sits at a table across from a Pharisee named Nicodemus who has come to speak to the Master privately.  One or two servers stand nearby.  There is a clay pitcher and 2 drinking cups on the table.  The town is visible in the background.
A majestic and reverent scene, directly inspired by Revelation 5:8. A group of elderly, robed figures are kneeling in worship, their faces and attention directed towards a central focal point. Each elder holds a golden harp in one hand and a golden bowl brimming with luminous, swirling incense in the other. The incense, representing the collective prayers of all saints, rises in shimmering, golden tendrils from each bowl, converging and ascending towards the central figure. At the very center of the composition, slightly elevated and bathed in radiant light, stands the Lamb who was slain, embodying divine power and sacrifice, the recipient of all this worship. The atmosphere is ethereal, filled with soft, divine golden light emanating from the incense and the Lamb, emphasizing the precious, sacred, and unified nature of the prayers being offered before Him. Focus on the rich textures of gold, the reverence of the elders, and the radiant presence of the Lamb
At the bustling Kuala Lumpur airport, Wing-Sun and his Mother say farewell to his father before he leaves for a six‐week business trip to London.  We see Wing Sun and his mother from the back, as Father stands on the escalator going up to his departure gate, and turns toward us to wave goodbye.  Many other passengers and children are standing around.  The airport is modern and well lit.
First century Palestine.  Jesus sits on a rock on a hillside teaching a large group of His disciples.  The Sermon on the Mount.  Jesus wears a plain robe like most ordinary men.  Jesus' face is kind, but intense, as He teaches. The other people are mostly peasants, farmers, and tradesmen.  There are also women present, wearing plain, everyday clothing.  Some couples have also brought their children.  The Sea of Galilee shines in the far distance.

Morning inside the classroom at a private school in Kuala Lumpur before class begins. Students stand next to their desks as the teacher, standing in front, leads them in the usual morning recitations of the five national principles, their voices blending into one:
	"Kepercayaan kepada Tuhan." (Belief in God.)
	"Kesetiaan kepada Raja dan Negara." (Loyalty to the King and Country.)
	"Keluhuran Perlembagaan." (Supremacy of the Constitution.)
	"Kedaulatan Undang-Undang." (Rule of Law.)
	"Kesopanan dan Kesusilaan." (Courtesy and Morality.)
Wing-Sun repeats the words automatically, his eyes drift across the classroom, catching a glimpse of Siu-Zi, the new girl, standing in her usual spot near the window.
Inside a home in Petaling Jaya, Wing-Sun, a 10 year old Chinese boy sits cross-legged on the cool tile floor, watching the delicate tendrils of smoke rise from the joss sticks his father has just placed in the family altar’s bronze urn. The flickering candlelight casts shifting shadows over the framed portraits of the ancestors, their solemn faces gazing out from another time.
Wing-Sun's father, dressed in crisp slacks and a neatly pressed white shirt, murmurs a quiet prayer, his voice low and rhythmic. Beside him, Wing-Sun’s mother clasps her hands together in a quiet moment of respect before adjusting the jade bangle on her wrist. Their morning ritual is a quiet, practiced thing; one they perform, and Wing-Sun observes, every day.
First century Palestine.  Jesus walking away from the camera with 2 of His disciples.  The Temple sits high on a hill in the distance with the road going up to it.  Merchants and houses line the road.  People are coming and going both ways.
A breathtaking, highly detailed landscape and architectural illustration of historic Jonesborough, Tennessee, Appalachia, blanketed in fresh, pristine snow. The scene captures the charm of a 'Winter Wonderland' during the golden hour just before sunset. Focus on the main street (possibly Main Street or College Street) lined with preserved 18th and 19th-century Federal and Greek Revival style architecture, such as the Chester Inn or historic courthouse.

The buildings have warm, glowing lights spilling from their windows, creating a cozy contrast with the blue tones of the snow and dusk sky. Snow-dusted, bare deciduous trees frame the street. Include subtle details like a horse-drawn sleigh, tracks in the snow, and a thin wisp of smoke curling from chimneys. The style should be evocative, highly realistic, and painterly, capturing the quiet, historic ambiance of America's oldest town in Tennessee. Use a slightly elevated perspective to showcase the depth of the street and the surrounding Appalachian hillsides.

Place this text in the foreground of my newly generated Vintage Film Burn image…

“Dawn, gentle, beginnings of a new day lighting our paths and illuminating our way….

I’ve always thought of you with love and warmth and hardly questioned why… always felt a special bond that’s led to years of friendship  and smiles…

I found in you the gentle spirit of a certain truth and could NOT look away because in you I saw proof…..of HIM…”

Also include an image in the background of a soft sunrise seen over an ocean’s horizon 


A Dawn to Remember….by JPRussell
A koi pond seen from above, orange and white koi fish swimming among lily pads, clear water with subtle ripples, fallen cherry blossom petals floating on the surface, dappled sunlight
profound image representing the verse Psalm 119:15. The scene depicts a solitary lady with flowing, long red hair, in a posture of deep contemplation or meditation. She is seated or kneeling in a peaceful, natural setting – perhaps on a gentle hillside overlooking a tranquil landscape, by a calm body of water, or within a serene garden. Her expression is focused and reverent.

Before her, or subtly integrated into the scene, is an ancient scroll or open book, glowing with a soft, ethereal light, symbolizing God's precepts. Her posture and gaze are directed towards this source of wisdom, with a clear sense of 'fixing her eyes' on its profound truth.

Extending from the scroll/book, or subtly woven into the distant landscape, are luminous, ethereal pathways or guiding lights, representing 'Your ways' (God's ways). These pathways are clear and inviting, leading towards a bright, hopeful horizon, symbolizing divine guidance and understanding. The atmosphere is tranquil and reflective, bathed in soft, warm, golden light (perhaps dawn or dusk), signifying clarity and spiritual insight. The overall mood is one of peace, deep wisdom, divine guidance, and focused devotion, rendered with a beautiful, luminous quality."
