YELLOW ROSE OF HEALING

YELLOW ROSE OF HEALING paintography by MICHAEL FORBUS THIS ROSE IS DEDICATED TO A SPIRITUAL PERSON I KNOW AND ANOTHER THAT NEEDS OUR PRAYERS. WE DO THINGS OFTEN THAT WE ARE MOVED TO DO AND WE CALL THAT THE MUSE, THIS IS DONE TODAY TO HEAL MY FRIEND AND TO LET MY SPIRITUAL FRIEND KNOW THAT I APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT AND WISDOM I HAVE GARNERED FROM OUR FRIENDSHIP. THEY ARE GEMSTONES IN MY POUCH OF TREASURES THAT ARE TOUCHED DAILY AND HAVE TOUCHED ME FOREVER. MY GRATITUDE TO ALL OF YOU WHO SEND SUPPORT OUT TO OUR FRIEND WHO NEEDS RELIEF FROM THE ANTICIPATION OF IMMINENT SURGERY AND FROM ONE WHO BRINGS HOPE TO ALL DAILY. IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO NAME THE PEOPLE THIS IS DEDICATED TO. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND IF YOU ARE PRAYING, JUST ASK FOR SOME RESPITE FROM THE UNKNOWING. STEADY THE SURGEONS HAND. IT IS SAID TO GIVE THE GIFT ANONYMOUSLY AND TO PRAY IN THE CLOSET. I THINK THIS MEANS UNCONDITIONALLY. TODAY I PRAY FOR ALL THOSE WHO READ THIS, THAT YOU MAY KNOW THAT FEAR IS A TEST OF OUR FAITH AND IS MAN MADE. WE HAVE THE CONTROL OF OUR FEAR. I PRAY THAT HIS LEAVES HIM LIKE A WISP OF SMOKE FROM THE ELDERS SAGE IN THE FIRE. QUOTE BY Elbert Hubbard (1927) GOD IS GOOD, THERE IS NO DEVIL BUT FEAR......

It is no coincidence that I should stumble upon this image and the words to the left on this day.. this night...it is exactly what I asked God to remove from me today.. "Courage is fear that hung on a moment longer" I don't know who said it.. a general I think. the image is breathtaking,,, the words are lifegiving.... thank you.

Artist Reply: My deepest thanks to you for your kind words. If they have moved you to feel stronger and have been an answer to what you have been seeking them my work for you alone has been worth it. My gratitude to you for having this experience and sharing it with me. I am grateful that you have found this which helps you. Michael

Michael, beautiful!! You are so gracious, and kind. I will extend, my prayers to those of whom you speak, for I believe collective energy from many in the same purpose, adds an extra boost of healing power to the One who is already there at their side. Best of blessings to you as well, Michael.

Artist Reply: Carliss, dear friend, thank you so much for your kindness and wise words. Our friend has a whole slew of God's children praying to steady the surgeon's hand. I do have the faith that he will be creating his masterpieces again soon. Bless you for all that you are and thanks for looking at my work and the lovely compliments you give to me. I am doing what I promised to do and that is to give care to God's children when I see them suffer. Today that man has no fear of the operation. You are right about the collective energy, it is very powerful and many are praying for his safety. Thanks so much dear friend. Michael

jamie winter 08 Oct 2007

very beautiful Michael, i also feell it shows securtiy and and feelings of compasion

Artist Reply: Jamie, we will do the same for your mother. I have many spiritual friends that have direct connections and they are praying for my friend Joe now and tell me about your mother so that we may know her heart and we will pray for her as well. Praying en masse is what the Master Magician ask us to do, as he turned the water to wine. We are just being good children. I pray for your mother now as I write and for you to have peace. As always it is God's will when things are great and God's will when our faith is tested. My love to you and your family and bless you all. Miguel

Andrew Hunter 08 Oct 2007

Michael this is beautiful well done

Artist Reply: Andrew, you are so very talented and also so kind to comment on this work. It is dedicated to a friend who is facing a surgery, a marvelous painter and I am asking friends to read the narrative and give him support with their private Gods and there is also a Forum thread called An Artist Friend Needs Our Help. If you have the feeling add a little something to make him face this operation. This was done for him and a friend of mine who has a direct connection with the Master Magician, who turned water to wine. His name is Joe and he is my buddy and a great artist. So many thanks to you Andrew. You have a great heart. Michael

There is a forum for comments to him or images of happiness and wellness if you care to contribute. Your work is so inspiring he might like it in a Get Well card. The Forum says An Artist Friend Needs our Prayers. Only if you are moved to . He will see you response and it will make him feel better. My gratitude and utmost friendship to you. Michael

Patty Day 07 Oct 2007

Beautiful work, Michael! Nothing in this earthly world can please God more than prayer; I pray that your friend is well soon. God Bless!

Artist Reply: Patty, you divine woman. Thank you so much for your kind words but more important for giving your prayers to someone whom you don't know. That is true God work. I thank you and I am sure he is grateful. I don't think he knows I am rallying the troops as he is in another hemisphere but he is a grand artist and I just want to keep seeing him happy with no fear and creative with no hinderances. That is my prayer. Thank you and thank God for people like you. My gratitude. Michael
