Ode to Black and White…and a daydream.

mercy streams

whispers

night visions

stately wait

snowy sunshine

when storms may come...

hidden beauty

recollection

daydreams

My Florida…

Stepping Stones…

* Writing, for me, is an act of freedom and passion. Words are like jewels to me, and a beautiful thought is like the whispers of God reminding me that I am never alone. -23 June, 2007

* So, that’s my desire: that my wounds cause me to resemble Jesus. And that through forgiveness, they become something beautiful – a beautiful brokenness that reflects a beautiful savior. -7 June, 2007

* …there’s freedom in the sacrifice, and there’s peace in embracing the fact that the presence of pain, struggle, and even grief doesn’t mean that He’s abandoned me like others do… -5 August, 2007

* I believe Jesus laughed often. I need to believe it tonight. I’m going to find a way to laugh out loud tonight, and all I need to do is look around to find something to smile about. It’s all about perspective. -6 July, 2007

* Doors close as others open. Now we just have to be courageous enough to walk through the open ones…and not linger too long in missing the ones that have closed. – 7 October, 2007

* I know God is teaching me things I can only learn through loss – then I can see the colors created by the art of pain. -23 May, 2007

* …peacefulness is more beautiful than beauty that’s not at peace. -24 October, 2007

* I pray for peace and comfort to all of those seeking and hurting. I pray for the light of truth to speak to hearts and erase the hate. I pray for the strength to chase after the things of God, and God is love – and love wins! -19 June, 2007
