In this vast universe God has created, I am less than a speck. (See me down there?)  But YHWH not only sees me in the midst of the hard, hidden, lonely places, He cares and His eyes “roam throughout the earth to show himself strong for those who are wholeheartedly devoted to him.” (2 Chron. 16:9) This was my meditation as I created this journal page, inspired by Aiko’s lesson in the Who Do You Say that I Am? Bible Art Journaling Retreat put on by Jen Alward. What is a human that God is mindful of them, that He… Continue reading →

Change

Do you change your art, long after it’s “done?” Change is inevitable in life. And for me, in my art too. My art journaling sprint I posted about earlier this week really fizzled out. I did get one more Names of God journal page done (and will share it soon, but not today.) This week has been full of days of remembrance, (and new days of repairs I don’t care to remember.) I think every day for the past week+ has taken a 180 turn from my plans, into something I had no idea was coming. Change. “A person plans… Continue reading →

One Thing

One thing I have desired of YHWH, that will I seek: that I may dwell in the house of YHWH all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of YHWH,… ~ Psalm 27:4 This is the first thing that came to my mind when presented with, “What is your dream?” You may be wondering if you’re experiencing Déjà vu. I’ve shared parts of this make twice! The house finally found a home for it to land on. 😊 Totally different background, that was reworked 3 or 4 or more times. And I’ll probably add more finishing touches later…. Continue reading →

Selah Retreat {Art Journal}

Leave a comment

I’m back from my retreat and have so much to share that I think you’ll find helpful and encouraging. But for today, I’m only sharing the journaling of my trip—my art page. I so enjoyed my Selah time, to Pause. Ponder. Pray. Praise. Spending time with God alone. 🎨Creating, 📚studying, and enjoying nature walks in pretty, peaceful places. 💖 The river. The vegetation. The flower gardens. The peace. They all made their way into my journal page. The supplies weren’t my typical. I had my bag of usuals with me. But I wanted to do something different. Which led to… Continue reading →

Go Make Disciples

Have you ever had a creative piece that you knew just what it was to be, but it still just wouldn’t come together? This Faith+Art Journal page was inspired by Marjolaine Simard’s Dream page, in Encounters in Color, and I started it back then, in June. It activated much thought, and I knew it wasn’t just going to be a page in an art journal. It has a longer story, of course. (That will likely wait until my memoir.) 😄 It brought so much meditation, it took 6 weeks to finally get it done. Oh, what can be sparked by… Continue reading →

We all have creative projects that don’t get finished right away. There are so many reasons that happens. Life gets in the way. We lose our creative motivation. Or we’re pondering; we just don’t know what the next step of that creation is to be. I’d been trucking right along on my makes inspired by Encounters in Colour last month, while also working on other creative projects, and new Courses to offer on this site. But this Work In Progress has had a Pause. I thought I knew exactly where it was going. Then that direction changed. Then I didn’t… Continue reading →

Imagine

Imagine sitting down for your quiet time and feeling excited instead of wondering where to start. Imagine having a few different ideas in your back pocket for days when you feel distracted, stuck, overwhelmed, or just need something a little different. That’s what I love about the Faith Journaling Collective Workshop from Faith Bundles. Twenty women—including me!—. are sharing different ways they process Scripture and connect with God, and I have a feeling you’ll walk away with ideas you can continue using long after the workshop ends. Sometimes all we need is a little fresh perspective. You can join free… Continue reading →
