Hello .........
so much has happened to me in my life since the last post ....I am in Colorado, where I have been since the 18th of January, watching over my husband who has been in and out of the hospital since we arrived. 

We are both questioning what is this all about God?

Life is very unpredictable and the only constant in this life is God -I am very aware that He is the only thing I have that never changes - He is the strong tower in the storm. 


There is a saying - "smooth seas do not make skillful sailors"  so the cry of my heart in this tumultuous sea I am living in is TEACH me Lord -----TEACH me ----- help me to learn well -----how to ride out the storms while navigating the obstacles that so easily try to persuade me that there is no hope.

Where is this journey that God has laid out taking me? us? 
only time will tell...so friend if you find yourself in this same place in this life we that we all live.....please know that we are each others voice calling out the words of hope and encouragement that no matter what each of may be enduring in this season of time we are children---He is a good Father ---His eye is on us ----He is our refuge and strength and as the song says.....So hold me Jesus....I'm shaking like a leaf....you have been King of my glory.....Won't you be my Prince of peace...come lord come

Newness of days


Can you feel the crisp freshness of days before us….
untouched by anything ……laid out in front of us by
 the hand of our creator…..as a canvas that leans
 upon the easel awaiting the artist
….our life is the brush that is painting the image as the
minutes of each hour is counted down….what is it that we will
reflect upon the canvas? 

Each breath given to us to be breathed in and out ….life anew…
to give to other artists around a fresh new insight….
to the colors upon our canvas….
that they can pick of them to place
upon their canvas of life and see His glory.
I long to see what each artist will show forth….. unto the teacher of this art…..
the skillful one who has given so freely to us…. this life to be used as we desire…
to paint for all the world to see…..the wonder of His love…mercies…grace…forgiveness.
We live to give glory to Abba…..to reflect Him….to be the masterpiece….
to be the paint on the canvas…showing forth what he has created …
 forming in and through us.
 Lord may you give us the desire to know you …more intimately….
to reflect in us the wonder of you …on all the moments that we move…
 live out the work of your hands in our lives on the canvas of life. Blessings!
