Believing is Seeing - OLW

The challenge was to create something with the word Believe. Journaling reads: "I grew up thinking I had to see something to believe it. But now I'm discovering that Believing is Seeing! It's turning my world upside down..."



So much of what God says doesn't made sense to my logical way of thinking. He tells me to believe what He says even when I can't see it with my physical eyes, when there is no visible "proof". Many times it's a real fight for me. Yet, when I choose to believe Him anyways, I often do see the results!

The Gathering Place

This is an 18" x 24" canvas for my living room wall. I love having a place to gather people together. If you click on the picture, you will be able to see a lot more of the details.



Some definitions for gather or gathering:
to bring together into one group, collection, or place
to bring together or assemble from various places, sources, or people
to serve as a center of attention for; attract
to pick or harvest (any crop or natural yield) from its place of growth or formation
to wrap or draw around or close
to come together around a central point; assemble
to collect or accumulate
to grow, as by accretion; increase.

How awesome is that? :-) That is what I want for my gathering place!

Open Portal

This photo was taken at the Garden of the Gods, just a few miles from my new home! It's a beautiful place to walk. The formation is called Kissing Camels. I love the hole that you can see heaven through. :-) It's a reminder of the open portal between heaven and earth, the place where God pours His blessings out.



I am so blessed in so many ways!
