Shake off the dust
Shake off the dust. Mark A Hewitt, pastel & pencil. 7 July 2012
Mark 6:1-13 Jesus sent the disciples out to preach, teach & heal. ‘If any place will not welcome you and they refuse to hear you, as you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet …..’ What a great image of letting go & moving on when you have been in a place or situation that has hurt when all you have done is tried your best.

Mustard Shrub
Parable of the mustard seed growing into a large shrub.
Mark A Hewitt 1999 Lino cut & water colour.
Mustard shrub with a Superb Fairy Wren nesting in it’s shade. Mark 4:30-32
The mustard seed is so small although when it grows into a shrub it can reach 3 metres. God’s basileia can be experienced in the most unspectacular, commonplace or “shrub like” events. This is God’s world located in the ordinary. It may start small but will end up disproportionally large. Pentecost 3 Yr B
