Marcy Gregg and Amber discuss the story behind her memoir, Blank Canvas. Marcy shares the fear of waking up with no memory of the last 13 years, the radical way God’s grace crashed into her world, surrendering her alcohol addiction, and how oil painting connects her to God.
“I remember waking up…But I was very confused, because there was a man standing next to me….I thought that I was 17, not 30. I had lost 13 years of my memory.”
“I did not remember anything about the children, but I knew they were mine.”
“So now not only was I hiding the fact that I had no memories, I’m hiding that I’m drinking.”
“For months when I came home from the hospital, I prayed for God to heal me…I begged him to make me whole mentally as he had physically…And he was so silent….I needed God to get into my world and do something for me. For the first time, I really couldn’t do for me, which I’d always been able to get my way out of a situation. This time I couldn’t. I needed him to fix my memories. And I was praying, God help me. Nothing was happening and I was angry.”
“I fell to my knees and at that moment…I truly surrendered my life to God. I knew that his plan for me without my memories was better than my plan with my memories.”
“I gave up alcohol that night. And the very next day, I chose to do a 12 step program….I have literally been faithful to that for years and years and years. It’ll be 25 years in December.”
“Underneath every one of my paintings, I paint scripture. That’s the first thing that I do.”
“When I’m painting, I see God differently. I see him as the master artist….My paintings have multiple layers of paint….And every layer is necessary for the next layer to make the painting what is going to be…And if I think about it, that is how God is. Our lives are like the canvas and God is the master artist. Every layer matters. Nothing is wasted. And he uses them all to make us like Jesus. So when I think about what I’m going through with my rheumatoid arthritis, or what I went through with losing my memories, or what people are going through out there, what I want to say is, no matter where you are, whatever layer you’re in, if it looks bad, it doesn’t mean he’s finished. There’s another layer that’s coming. And that layer is to make you more like Jesus, he’s not finished.”
