WOW that was cool to see the sketch and then the finished piece! Now I am going to have to go look up Joel 2:25 :) LOVELY LIST!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Tesha! And totally check out that verse. It came to me as I was considering all the years that feel eaten up by unlove and dysfunction and disorder...I feel like God put that verse in my head at that time, because He cares. I can't get over how amazing that is.
DeleteSo beautiful... love your piece and your gorgeous words xoxo
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteBeth,
ReplyDeleteI love your blog and I find it so inspirational to see how you're working through this grief. Every post you do honors your daughter and shows what a wonderful capacity you have for love and nurturing. Your artwork is beautiful as well!
