This was simply fascinating to read! I love the idea that not only to gaze upon light is to gaze upon God but that He is gazing back at us, and we are known 🥹🙏🏻

And also, as a person who likes to create and often struggles at times with feeling like it has any value/could be helpful in any way by sharing, I love seeing something made like this that has been used-even considered sacred- for ages; and the people who made it were most likely laboring in love and for His glory (seeing how it’s artist(s) are unknown). It begs me to ask myself, am I willing to make simply because God called me and not for any personal glory? 💗 it’s all very inspiring!

Thank you, Joellen! I love your comments. It’s also interesting to consider how starved they were for scripture and light. Because of poverty and darkness in winter (the lack of light), the narratives in the windows were revelations and often their only teaching. It’s all very beautiful! Thanks for reading 🙏🏼❤️
