LOVE, JOY, PEACE -- In Taveuni

When waves of trouble seem to overwhelm -- JESUS promises: Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

...and the peace of GOD, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through CHRIST JESUS. (Philippians 4:7)

But the Helper, the Holy SPIRIT, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things... (John 14:26)

The joy of the LORD is your strength. (Nehemiah 8:10)

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our GOD stands forever. (Isaiah 40:8) Life on earth is very short indeed, but eternal LIFE is forever.

GOD is love, and he who abides in love abides in GOD, and GOD in him. (1 John 4:16)

Love, Joy, Peace...fruit of the SPIRIT.

BEVERLY's Campground -- MILLION-Dollar View

Miriama, Leone and Jo in front of rLn's latest mural -- located at Beverly's Campground in Matei...

Beverly's is a backpacker's haven -- graced with a beachfront million-dollar view at very affordable prices...

A blooming orchid was actually growing on one of the vutu trees -- right at beach side...

These are but a few of my favorite words which describe GOD's infinite character...

Fantasy flowers -- but Who knows... there might be actual ones somewhere, for GOD's Creation is so vast in contrast and variety and number.

For GOD so loved the world that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) Incomprehensible, inconceivable, indescribable agape love -- Who but Father-GOD could have conceived it... Who but CHRIST, the Son, could have executed it... Who but the Holy SPIRIT could have orchestrated it?

When i "see red" -- i think of the blood of JESUS shed for my sins...

The GOD i worship is all Truth... is full of Mercy... is my everlasting Hope.

The GOD i worship is infinite Love... is utterly Holy... is my Peace that surpasses all human understanding.

Finished work, located at Beverly's Campground...Matei, Taveuni (Fiji).

Hand Painted in TAVEUNI -- Latest By rLn

Juda's shirt -- an example of the motif used for the scouts' (boys and girls) school trip to Suva. i painted tagimoucia designs until the very day of the trip! i felt like a factory worker -- but i handpainted everything, each flower and leaf one at a time, so each person had an rLn original.

Miriama with her just-painted sulu... just in time for her visit to Raki Raki (Viti Levu) for her momo's wedding.

Jo, Leone and Kani -- in their "going to church" Bula-rLn shirts... complete with their personal Bible verses (vaka Viti) on the back.

Her very own salusalu -- my sister In CHRIST from the Assembly of GOD church in Matei...

A two-meter sulu -- about the SPIRIT... at The Shoppe, Delia's unique boutique store.

For Matawalu's wedding anniversary -- 1 Corinthians 13:4-8...

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Miri's sulu, front...

Miri's sulu, back... with John 3:16 in vaka Vita and English as she requested.

For GOD so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Liva Liva's sulu -- from her nau Vane from Naselesele Village...


P.S. i am again raising funds for the Naselesele Village school children in Taveuni, Fiji. Your charitable donation of any amount is deeply and heartfully appreciated! GOD bless your loving heart!
