God Bless My Art



It’s been a while since I posted. There is something about stopping and starting…it takes a lot of energy. Perhaps less energy is used when you ride the wave of momentum.
I have been having fun in my art journals. And in my mind, I’ve wrote a hundred posts. J After reading other blogs and admiring the work of other art journalers. I am inspired by all the creativity. I am still finding my creative voice. I love learning and experimenting. This journey is truly liberating.
I understand the creative gift the Lord placed in me. I can't be afraid to develop my gift.My gifts belong to Him. Through art journaling I honor my Source.
I have always kept a journal. My thoughts flow like a stream over rocks. Yet during those times when my mind feels as if waves are pounding, journaling presents a wonderful outlet as well. So , I invite you to come along on this journey with me.
One of the challenges I had was simply finding time. I had to decide that spending time in my journals, whether writing, drawing, or painting was important TO ME.  So, I decided to take the time. And recently I have been creating beginning background pages. I have found  Solace during my time journaling. I feel connected and centered. I know I am blessed.
God Bless My ART
Heavenly Father,
I come before you honoring You as the creator of my gifts. I  pray that my words will be pleasing to You. I pray that my blog will be a blessing to all who stop by. Lord, I ask that You remove any fear that would keep me from growing. I desire to grow in You. I desire to be a fierce Kingdom Woman of God on a mission to share Your Word.
Lord, I know I can get in my own way. I want others to see You in my art and I ask that You bless my art so that it goes forward to make a difference in the world.
In Jesus Name. Amen.
