Description
"None of us are strong enough to resist the pull of Earthly temptations; the pull of the devil. But Jesus is strong enough, and if we trust in Him, surely we can be protected from worldly terrors."Drawn whilst listening to Tonight by Tobymac and John Cooper of Skillet. Match made in Heaven. Go and Listen. DO IT NAO. [link]
I want to add a background...I feel it looks incomplete as is, but I can't think of anything. >.> Any suggestions?

Can't think of anything to add without upsetting the simply, yet powerful feel of the piece. The white vs black is very simple and yet very powerful. Total opposites vying for control. Good vs Evil. God's Will vs Self. Truth vs the Father of Lies. Powerful stuff.
Sorry, these types of pictures really speak to me.

I thought that it rains on the just and the unjust alike.

The picture just means that Jesus makes it easier to resist the pull of worldly temptations, not that he takes away the adversity everyone faces.

How do you believe he makes it easier?

He gives you the strength to fight against it and keeps you from being...well, not keeps you from being exposed to temptation, but keeps you from being too weak and giving into it.

I'm sorry, but I must disagree. I was a Christian for 35 years and I never felt any strength from the Christian god. As a matter of fact, there were times when I prayed daily, sometimes to the point of crying from desperation, and I never received any strength or comfort. That was part of my personal evidence that led me to Atheism.
A woman once told me that when she prayed for comfort, she could literally (and I mean literally) feel Jesus' arms around her, holding her and comforting her. All I ever felt after praying was alone. After 35 years I just couldn't lie to myself anymore.

Alright, and I'm sorry about that. But, in my opinion, that was the devil up to his stupid sneaky tricks. But anyway, the point isn't to start a Christian vs. Atheist debate. I DO feel God however, which is what has led me to Christianity my whole life, and to this picture. If you disagree that's alright, but don't expect me to change my opinion.

Awesome!
I think for a background, it should be more of the darkness like stuff all around you, but where the two of you are sitting there should be a really pretty like spotlight-like light.
*Shrugs* That's all I could think of. X3

I didn't really mean "you," cause I had a feeling it wasn't since your DA ID had blue eyes, just kinda wasn't thinking while typing. Neko's bad. XD
