Saturn by Osnat Tazdok on osnatfineart.com |
Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Galatians 6:8
Saturn, the Roman god of peace, calm and comfort. Ah but this comes with a dark side. It's peace with placation. In Saturnalia the gladiators fight for ten days. What you sow, you reap. The soil is rich with blood. Is this the peace we currently enjoy? Fertile, but tainted?
PRAYER: Show me the way to true peace.
Saturnalia is considered to be the Roman festival that was converted into Christmas. The story continues to be peace emanating from blood, but now it's God that is sacrificed, not man.
