1.Flowing Water In the beginning, the universe was formless and empty. God brought order out of chaos, creating the heavens and the earth by His word. Everything that exists flows from His power, much like life-giving water.This is a symbol of God’s creative act, where He speaks, and life springs forth from what was once only void.
From the leaf, draw a delicate flower representing the promised heir, born as a tiny baby. Not the child of Joseph, but of God himself. In a stable shared by animals, the child received visits from astonished shepherds who heard angels declaring peace. This single newborn carried God’s covenant forward.
3. The Lion
Draw a lion for the heir to Abraham and David, the promised King to save humanity. This is what the small baby
will grow up to be.
Finally, illustrate life flowing outward, reflecting how this Prince of Peace would bring hope to all. The child’s birth opened a way for humanity to reconnect with God, bridging the distance caused by time and turmoil. Through this humble king, new growth sprang from an old promise, offering renewal to anyone who draws near the light of Bethlehem’s miracle.
1. The sprout
Sketch a sprout as a reminder of King David’s lineage, which now appears weak and forgotten. In Bethlehem, Mary and Joseph—a couple from this ancient bloodline—struggled to find shelter, ending up in a simple stable. Though it all seemed modest and hidden away, the lineage of David remained a vital root ready to sprout new life.

What is Henna?
Henna art in African culture is a beautiful tradition where people use a natural dye to create temporary designs on their skin, especially hands and feet. These designs aren’t just pretty patterns; they often have special meanings, like bringing good luck or protection. The art style changes from region to region, with North Africa using detailed geometric patterns, West Africa using unique line techniques, and the Horn of Africa favouring flowing, floral designs. Henna is very important during celebrations like weddings, where brides get elaborate designs. It’s a way to show cultural identity and pass down traditions through generations, making it a significant part of African heritage.
