hello, may the 14th

certain i heard His voice this afternoon, as i was sitting near the children's books section, drawing on top of a purple stool. it was so surreal. i felt His Love, a Love so overwhelming i was momentarily breathless. my heart was thudding although it was silent all around. 

i have always wondered, what was it about art?? that made me love it so whole-heartedly. that each moment spent absorbed in a piece brings me unimaginable excitement, joy and... peace. 

and sometime ago this was revealed to me- art brings me to my Father. 

my art isn't mine, it's His. His to own. 

throughout the day this verse has been subconsciously flashing across my mind, Ecclesiastes 3:11. "He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end." 

He has made everything beautiful in its time. 

He has made everything beautiful in its time.

and today i was reminded that there is nothing more i can do but have Faith. Faith in my God, who will take me through ALL things and whose name is higher than all other names. complete surrender.

no fear.
