A Blank Canvas Artist
I really did want to paint! Let me rephrase that. I could paint walls, doors, railings, and any piece of furniture. But what I REALLY wanted was to paint a delicate and beautiful scene on a blank canvas. No paint-by-numbers for me! I desired to create something that was uniquely mine. What I’ve come to…
And God Said
I remember taking this photo at Epiphany Ranch. I am still in awe of such beauty in a sunrise. What a mighty artist is our God! What a declarer of His majesty, beauty, and wonders! As I did then, and now, seeing those sunshine rays, I think: “And God said…” If ever we needed God’s…

You Are Living Stones
I have a birds-eye view from my office window, of the house being built across the street from me (pictured here). It’s really quite amazing how – just a couple of weeks ago – there was just a vacant lot. It is gradually becoming a home that will soon have happy occupants inside. For the…
Works of the Master Artist; Artists at Work
Loved my Life Group tonight as we talked about our great Creator Who created us with the abilities to CREATE. I asked each one to bring a photo or share something that they “created”. I loved it when one of our precious ladies brought a gorgeous quilt she had made for a grandbaby that’s on…
