A Time to Think

Over the years, folks have told me I have 'artistic' ability. I did minor in Art Education, and used to paint a great deal. However, with raising kids, the strokes, etc., I've abandoned it completely. A couple of weeks ago, Ronnie and I were watching 'Texas Country Reporter' and there was a segment on blind artist, John Bramblitt.
(see his website: http://sightlessworks.com/)
We were fascinated, and I checked out his website (above). On it, I saw that his original paintings were for sale, as well as prints. Checking out his 'gallery' brought more amazement to me. I've decided that as soon as my shoulder heals, I am going to return to a segment of my life, even though it's been years and years since I picked up a brush, and begin doing art.
I thought about this promise I had made to myself when I read the 'To Act' above, and about the best Scripture for me, which blesses me always.
Isaiah 41:10 "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with My victorious right hand." | |

Hope you have great days, and think about something which blesses you to do,
that gives you a sense of fulfillment, and just do it !!! Maggie | |
