Joshua 1:9

It’s normal to be scared about things. Some things are frightening to everyone. Other things seem scary except to the person who is scared. Both kids of fear keep us from doing all kinds of things.

In the beginning of Joshua, the Israelites had good reason to be scared. They were going to war. They had no way of knowing if they would be killed or would be victorious. God reminded them they could be strong and courageous and He would be with them.

God doesn’t promise he will take away our fear. He does promise to be with us wherever we go. He will strengthen yo and give you courage to face your fears.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be
terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with
you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 (NIV)

The Frankenstein monsters gabs it up with The Bride. It’s a little something right out of my sketchbook.

Werewolf Walks His dog., originally uploaded by speartoons.

I was thinking about those clear, star-lit nights when I’ve taken the dog out. The other night, I heard a scream in the distance.

I don’t know if someone was serious, if it was some kids joking around or even if it was really a human scream. It was too far away to tell and it blended with distant freeway traffic and a train whistle. So much for a peaceful night! Then again, it was perfect for an October night.

I drew the illustration in Adobe Illustrator.

Illustration Friday: Stitch, originally uploaded by speartoons.

Here’s a nice, family portrait of everyone’s favorite monster. Did the stitch come from Victor Frankenstein himself, or was it that touch football game he was in back in October? You’ll have to ask him.
