The gospel according to boxes, Sam, and Andres

One day me and a good friend of mine, Sam, had coffee. I began to talk about the way sin has affected me in my life. I decided to illustrate it with broken wooden stirrers that Starbucks most generously gives out. I made boxes out of them and this is what we together came up with:

The Gospel according to Boxes.


Once there was a box. It was empty.




The box saw that other boxes were full. They had something inside of them. The box longed to be full.




It would go to the other boxes to try to feel full. When it was around them the box felt full.



When it wasn't around them it felt empty and then it became sad and more empty.





Then one day the box found something that filled it up, only to realize that later...




The box was just as empty as it started out, it did not last long for some reason.






Then some hands came and took the box and changed it. It was entirely different, it was new.




This new shape did not have to be filled up.
