When it's all been said and done...


There is just one thing that matters...
Did I do my best to live for truth, did I live my life for YOU?
I'm sure there will come a day when a Christ follower will have to be quiet about their faith. For me it's like breathing though. I will probably die for Him someday. Because I won't keep silent. I love Him, and I owe Him everything.
Every good and perfect gift has come from above. Not from majic. Not from synconicity. From HIM. Our creator. And I am at peace more than any other time in my life. I believe He's causing my life to be this rich right now, and I am amazed because of the grace I have right now. I do NOT deserve to be this happy. I have NOT earned this peace.
I am grateful for this love, and I pray it is felt by those who are closest to me.

Next Stop: Unicorn Craft Fair!


I've never had enough inventory to ever get a space at a craft fair. There's excuse #1.
I'm an artist - I'm moody. Excuse #2.
No one wants my stuff. Excuse #3.
I'm too self conscious. Excuse #4.

No matter how many excuses I can come up with, God is telling me it's time. and I want to please Him the most, so I'm putting my best foot forward, and I'm going to try. No more excuses. No more trying to talk myself out of it for ANY reason. It's time. That's all.

And so I'm sanding away the pieces of wood that's been on the shelf for years, waiting for such a time as this. I'm plotting out my course. Doing my research. Listening to the pros.

And I'm just going to have FUN with this by golly! Cuz isn't that why God made me? To have fun with the gifts He's given me, and make sure it blesses Him while I'm at it.

I can do that.

Pray for me.

Just for Starters


I'm starting a new chapter today.
New job
New attitude
New perspective
I'm just grateful today that I am aware of all the gifts that are coming to me. God has poured out in abundance: wisdom, joy, hope and peace. It's all real, and it's all because I put my trust in Him.
