A Story Of Faith By Margaret Lukasik

Faith Is Not Complicated.

I decided to do a painting series about faith because it's an important part of our lives for whatever we need. Faith keeps us grounded, it keeps us going during difficult times, and it even teaches the mind to look deeper and beyond what it can't comprehend or see.  

The day I called upon God to save my life and He did, I experienced a miracle! I was thankful, but I wanted to live a life of miracles.  I examined my faith that day and studied what faith is from the Bible.  I also began examining the lives of modern day people and throughout the Bible who lived lives of great faith. 

A number of years later, I had a spiritual breakthrough that changed my life and also saved it two more times.  This amazing epiphany took me from walking in circles with God to living victoriously.  I realized the simplicity of not trying to live a faithful life by my ability, but by trusting in God's ability to work through me. 

My thankfulness and gratitude are so much a part of who I am now that I have created this series to inspire others. "Praising God" is the first of this series that I hope inspires peace, joy and thankfulness in the hearts of all who view it!

Why I created "Praise and Thankfulness" within my Praise and Thankfulness Art Series 


I painted the woman above with uplifted arms to serve as a powerful reminder of the transformative power of praise and thankfulness. It's a testament to the fact that in our darkest moments, the act of gratitude can illuminate our path towards healing and growth.  Before my studies of true Godly "faith," I felt suffocated by negativity and self-doubt. Every day seemed like a struggle, and I found it difficult to see the blessings that surrounded me.  

In the midst of my studies, I began to notice a shift within me during difficult times. I went from struggling to trusting in God unconditionally. I began to incorporate praise and



thankfulness into my daily routine, setting aside time to express gratitude for the gifts God has blessed me with in my life. I felt so excited that I helped others do the same.

At first, it was a struggle to change. But as I continued to praise God and reflect on the good things in my life, the shift I had mentioned began to take place within me.  My negative mindset began to disappear, replaced by a sense of deep and abiding gratitude to God for His blessings. And as I embraced this attitude of thankfulness, I began to notice a change in my life. 

Blessings seemed to flow effortlessly, as if my newfound sense of gratitude was a magnet for joy, peace and abundant living. I found new opportunities presenting themselves, insecure relationships blossoming, and a sense of peace settling over me.  I came to realize that miracles can be an everday part of our lives by trusting God with all our hearts, minds and being.  

Praise and Thankfulness Art Conclusion

I hope my painting will do the same for you if you feel overcome by the world or a specific situation. Take time to reflect on your own experiences with praise and thankfulness if you're facing difficulties. Doing so will release God's transformative power in your life for abundant living.  - Margaret Lukasik

HOW THANKFULNESS INFLUENCED MY ART


1. The Gratitude I Feel For God's Blessings Inspires Me to Paint As a Celebration of The Thankfulness I Feel Daily.

Art as a Thank You

2.  I Allowed The Power of Praise and Thankfulness in My Art To Help Me Find Inspiration and Greater Meaning In Life and Art.

Inspiration lies within a thankful heart. I learned that gratitude can fuel the creative process in life as well as art.
