Description

Through a Glass DarklyThis painting was inspired by Pauls writing in 1 Corinthians 13: 12, For now we see through a glass darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part, but then shall I know even as also I am known. We do not get to see the whole picture. Much of our future and our past is kept hidden from us. While at first this may be disappointing, our blindness helps us to develop faith in God. We must trust that the Lord knows who we are and what we need to

This painting was inspired by Paul’s writing in 1 Corinthians 13:12, “For now we see through a glass darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part, but then shall I know even as also I am known.” We do not get to see the whole picture. Much of our future and our past is kept hidden from us. While at first this may be disappointing, our blindness helps us to develop faith in God. We must trust that the Lord knows who we are and what we need to experience. When I am discouraged by unforeseen turns in the road, I can remember that while I may not fully understand now, God knows and in time will reveal His purposes to me.

This scripture garnered more meaning for me when I struggled with diminished eyesight due to an autoimmune disease. I literally saw through a glass darkly with the possibility that I would lose my sight completely. All I could do was the best I could with the sight I had. I chose to exercise faith in Christ, who promises us peace now and clarity someday.

This painting began with a stained glass motif, hearkening back to cathedrals and their use of colored windows to beautify and instruct. Stained glass may indeed be magnificent, but illuminate a space it does not. Hence it was perfect as the background for seeing “through a glass darkly.” Next I put a little devil on the left enticing Priscilla (she named herself as I developed her) to listen to him and a little angel on the right entreating Priscilla to listen to him. Priscilla in her dark glasses pauses in a moment of indecision. It appears that she will pay heed to the angel. I dressed Priscilla in this rather dark poncho to illustrate how difficult it is to understand who we truly are in our mortal experience. We get a glimpse of the flamboyant blossoming of her character, but it’s mostly hidden. I added a suggestion of a halo around Priscilla to remind us how this process of choosing to follow the light we receive can eventually make us holy.

Initially I had the angel and the demon on opposite sides. I thought the angel should be on Priscilla’s right and the devil on her left. It just wasn’t working, though. When I moved the angel to the objective right of the painting, rather than the subjective right in relation to the individual, somehow the painting came together. I came to the realization that they should be switched because it more clear to the outside observer which choice is right than for the person in the thick of it.

My favorite face wash for sensitive skin
Size: 19 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have very sensitive and eczema prone skin and this face wash is the only one that I will use. It is so gentle and it works so well on my skin to remove makeup and anything else. It doesn’t really foam, but it lathers on nicely and a little bit goes a long way. It is really gentle and moisturize my face. It’s not greasy at all and it doesn’t leave any residue behind. Recently, I’ve been wearing a lot of sunscreen went outside with my toddler and I am so impressed by how well it removes that. The bottle is big and lasts a very long time making it such a great value. This is my favorite face wash and I will be using it for many years to come.

I am really happy with this purchase.😍🤌🏼
Size: 19 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 19 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser for almost half a year now, and it has honestly become a staple in my skincare routine. My skin tends to be dry and sensitive, and this cleanser keeps it feeling soft, clean, and comfortable without drying it out. The formula is very gentle and creamy, and I love that it contains hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and glycerin. After washing my face, my skin feels hydrated and calm instead of tight or irritated. It’s also fragrance-free, which is a huge plus for sensitive skin. Over time, I’ve noticed my skin barrier feels healthier and less reactive, especially during colder or drier weather. It works perfectly for daily use and pairs well with other skincare products without causing breakouts. I also appreciate that it’s certified by the National Eczema Association, which gave me more confidence trying it long term. Overall, this is one of the best gentle cleansers I’ve used, and I’ll definitely continue repurchasing it.

Great for dry skin, but expect a richer and oilier feel
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I picked this up after my dermatologist recommended CeraVe for my dry, eczema-prone skin and I'm pretty happy with it. It cleanses gently without stripping any moisture and my skin feels hydrated and calm after every wash — no tightness, no irritation. The hyaluronic acid and ceramides combo is clearly doing something right. That said, if you're switching over from the CeraVe Renewing SA Cleanser like I did, be prepared for a noticeably different texture. The SA Cleanser has a lighter, more gel-like feel whereas this one is significantly richer and has more of an oily texture that can feel a bit heavy, especially if you have combination skin or tend to get oily in your T-zone. For strictly dry skin it's probably perfect, but it took some getting used to for me personally. Still a solid cleanser backed by good ingredients and the National Eczema Association certification gives it extra credibility. Just know what you're getting into texture-wise before making the switch.

Super Gentle, Super Effective — My Skin Finally Feels Normal Again
Size: 19 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried a bunch of face washes over the years, and most of them left my skin tight, dry, or weirdly irritated. I decided to switch to the CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser after hearing so many good things about it — and honestly, I wish I had bought it sooner. First off, the texture is different from your typical foaming cleanser. It’s more like a creamy gel, which I actually ended up loving. It doesn’t strip your skin or leave that squeaky, dry feeling. Instead, it cleans without ever making my skin feel like it’s being punished. When I rinse it off, my face feels soft, calm, and hydrated — like I actually still have moisture in my skin. The ingredients are what make this thing so legit: hyaluronic acid for hydration, ceramides to repair the skin barrier, and glycerin to lock everything in. It’s fragrance-free, gentle, and literally approved by the National Eczema Association, so you know it’s made for sensitive skin. After using it daily, my skin went from dry and flaky to smooth and balanced. No breakouts, no redness, no random patches of irritation. It’s just a simple, dependable cleanser that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. If you wear sunscreen or light makeup, it removes it without any issues — and without needing two harsh cleanses. If you’re someone with normal to dry skin, sensitive skin, or you just want a face wash that won’t mess up your moisture barrier, this is hands-down one of the best options out there. It’s gentle, effective, and honestly makes washing your face feel like part of taking care of yourself rather than a chore. Highly recommend — it’s one of those products you buy once and immediately understand why everyone loves it.

I have been using this serum consistently and I can see a clear improvement in my skin. It feels smoother, more hydrated, and more even in texture. It is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and does not irritate my skin. It works well with my other skincare products and I will continue using it. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to improve their skin.
