Interesting Artist Rendering...

Today I stumbled upon the artwork and story of child prodigy sensation Akiane. I cannot vouch for her faith or experiences - nor am I trying to. But I did find something interesting....

Akiane began drawing at the age of 4. She claims to have seen visions and dreams with something akin to visits to heaven. Her drawing started as a way to convince her mother of the things she was 'seeing'. (Her mother was an atheist and Akiane had not been taught any kind of Christian faith.)

Now what I found interesting is how Akiane - at the age of 11 - portrayed a young girl in prayer...

It would seem instinctively that she knew or felt led to depict the subject with a veiled head. How about that? Akiane may not even know why she did it - but it lines right up with bible teachings and blesses my heart.

You can go to her website that I linked above and see more about her. I hope

she develops a strong truly biblical and Christian faith and can be a bold

witness for Jesus as the only Way to heaven. From what I've perused on her site -

it seems she is still learning in this area. May God shield her and guide her.

The Scriptures

I Corinthians 11:1-16

1 Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

2 Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you.

3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.

5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.

6 For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man.

9 Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.

10 For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

11 Nevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord.

12 For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.

13 Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

14 Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.

16 But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.

I Timothy 2:9-10
in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing, but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works.
