The Power of Prayer

On May 22, 2023   /   2020 Vision, All Posts, Barefoot in the Garden, Be Still, Chaos Calmed, Join Hands With Heaven (PODCAST), My Jesus, Wisdom of the Woods  

MY prayer is that we believers understand how powerful prayer really is. If we only could catch the tiniest glimpse of it, we would collectively fall to our knees. We would devour His presence with insatiable hunger. The roar of our voices would rip open the doors of heaven. Our prayers would change the whole world!

Comfort

This is a photo my husband took of last Wednesday's sunrise... the day his son died... before we knew what was going to happen that day. Vivid angel wings spread across the sky in those clouds... so clear that we both were amazed. We had no idea then that #GodRead more →

New Painting! The Trees Will Rejoice

On January 16, 2023   /   2020 Vision, All Posts, Be Still, Nail Pierced Hand Paintings, Wisdom of the Woods  

My latest painting! “The Trees Will Rejoice”

“Oh, sing unto the LORD a new song! Sing unto the LORD, all the earth.” Psalm 96:1

The 96th Psalm is a jubilant praise song. It declares the glory of God to all the nations. All of God’s marvelous #creation praises Him, the heavens, the earth, the sea, the fields and woods.

I love to be outdoors enveloped by nature. I especially love to hike through the woods. God’s presence is so evident when I stroll beneath the regal oaks and pines in the forests next to our homestead. I have often noted how the trees, with their leafy branches reaching toward the sun, appear to be praising their Creator. And they are!

The Rock

On September 28, 2022   /   2020 Vision, All Posts, Barefoot in the Garden, Be Still, My Jesus, Wisdom of the Woods  

God doesn’t promise us a life without burdens. The stones will inevitably litter our path. Sometimes they look heavy, unwieldy, imposing lying there in front of us. How will we ever manage to carry them? But Jesus does promise to walk through the journey with us. He offers to heft our struggles upon His own strong shoulders if we let Him. And then on the underside of it, after we make it through the storm, there is the treasure. There is the shining glittery treasure, the strength, character, deeper faith, peace, victory and all the other gifts that can usually only be found by picking up those ugly rocks.

Recovering From Dry July…

On August 11, 2022   /   2020 Vision, All Posts, Be Still, My Jesus, Wisdom of the Woods  

Distractions will always come. The enemy will make sure of it. That is the nature of this messy life. Neatly planned schedules will inevitably be interrupted from time to time. If God is what we want, we have to be willing to work for it. When our calendars get too full, it is up to us to find a way to return our gaze upon Jesus. He doesn’t usually force us, He is too much of a gentleman. We must initiate.But if we do that… if we make even the slightest little effort to reach out to Him… He WILL respond with floods of His unending love, mercy and grace. He always does.
