Questions are always around us whether seen or under the surface Why do bad things happen?
How can they not understand?
What is the purpose?
Where do I really need to be?
'Shower of Blessings' - Are you open to receiving?
12x36 Oil on Canvas
As I was doing the daily devo morning paintings, my last one that is not posted was the start of a hand. So many thoughts came to mind with that I knew it was time to bring it to canvas instead of my little daily papers. I know that 2010 will bring some shifting and sifting to my life.
'Shower of Blessings' is a beginning - my hand was very closed, gripping onto the security found in my job, my routine, my perceptions of what is true, right and normal. I found myself in a very hard place that I had to let go of many things I felt were blessings. When I released that hand and control, I found treasures and they haven't stopped coming. The more my hands are open the more that comes my way! I no longer feel in control of my destiny but know that God has wonderful plans. That is true freedom. Not always easy and pretty but so very worth it. I am very excited for the unknown that lies ahead!
'Emotional Flow' Triptych - Have you hit a little turbulence?
No life is immune to the rollercoaster ride of emotions. If we aren't feeling something then part of us has died even if we are still breathing. New things arrive continually whether we embrace them or not. It is a part of the journey called Life.
