Man finds Jesus and the Devil on plank of wood

Many people may be thanking the big man upstairs for sparing us so far this hurricane season. A Cutler Bay man has something a little more substantial - he's found inspiration on a plank of wood.

Walston Hixson is a cabinet maker, and he says he can see the image of Jesus on a plank he's had at work for a couple years. Can you see it? The knots form eyes. Hixson says he hasn't made any changes to the wood. On the other side of the wood, there's a crack that sort of looks like a crucifix, a common Christian symbol.



However, Hixson says this piece of wood tells two tales. When flipped over, some people can see the image of a devil-like monster.



Hixson says he's considered selling the plank on eBay, but hasn't made up his mind yet. If he were to use the wood for work, he might turn it into a panel for a cabinet door. "I actually don't want to get rid of it now," he admitted, "because I feel a bit scared, like a bit of a connection here."

He also says he probably won't do anything to preserve it. "I could sand it up, give it a nice finish. It's natural the way it is, I don't want to touch this natural beauty."
