Thank You!
MY FAITH JOURNEY:
Years
ago, I asked God how I could use my love for art to glorify Him. I remembered how pictures made bible stories
"come alive" to me as a child.
And how pictures stay in my mind, especially those I have never seen
before! So I asked Him to give me an
idea that was never painted before, and He answered me by sending me the
inspiration for "He's My Friend, Too!"

He's My Friend, Too! |
The process of painting it was a real
struggle, for I was self-taught and had never done figures before. I cried over it, thinking my efforts were not
good enough for the Lord. Then, when I
timidly showed it to a few people, and found that they were blessed by its
message, I realized that all God wants is my best. We are required to improve
our talents by learning and practice, but at whatever step we are on, our best
is good enough for Him.
And
so, I keep on asking for ideas and the Lord sends them in most unusual
ways. He keeps on helping me as I paint,
at times struggling, but all the while learning!
I
asked Him to always be my "agent," and I am honored for this
opportunity to present this exhibit for you.
For
Him, I paint,

We met at the blood draw site in Ellwood. Turns out I was at the wrong place. But I believe I was put there to meet you. ❤
