I Love to Write on Walls

My older sister might remember how I nearly got her in a heap trouble for writing her name on the wall behind her desk on her side of the room. Nearly pulled it off, too! I was seven. I thought it was pretty funny at the time. No one else did. Never again did I write on a wall; that is, until we built our home. My friend Jennifer had a Bible verse beautifully hand scripted on her kitchen and dining room walls. I was deeply impressed by seeing the word of the Lord painted on the walls of her home. So when we built our home, I decided that as each room was going to reflect some aspect of creation, there would be painted a corresponding Scripture verse. Each room has a different language:English in the Living Room, French in the kitchen/dining room, German in the guest room, Africannas in the Family room, Hebrew in the study,and in the Master bedroom Love is written in eighteen languages. When I started to paint the Scripture in the hallway that is themed with Noah and the Ark, I first laid out the letters in a gray green. Got off the step ladder, looked at the work, and laughed out loud. It looked like lettering in an Irish Pub. Shadowing with two shades of blue and silver highlights took the tavern out of it. It's ironic, because the first thing Noah did when he got off the ark was plant a vineyard.
I still have to write Portugese in the guest bathroom, Italian in the Master bath, and when I redo Drew's former room as the Iowa room, the Scripture "The cattle on a thousand hills are Mine" from the Psalms might be painted in a Native American Room. Yet to come: Greek in the short Noah's Ark hallway. Spanish is the language for my South Western Horse themed Studio, and for the Star Trek inspired video room...you guessed it - KLINGON! I need to figure out where I can write the Scripture in Elvish...(From Lord of the Rings) Maybe in the Aquaria downstairs. not novel. It is as old as the Bible. Check it out. Daniel 5. Writing God's Word on the wall is not novel. Check it out: Daniel 5
