What a beautiful day! Went to church and the weather is perfect. The pace of my day not rushed for a changed. my husband and I got invited to a new small group.

That was a interesting time. The study was very laid back and after the 1st few minutes I realized my husband & I were the youngest ones in the group. 

I didn't mind- I actually enjoyed it very much. I enjoy learning from them and the stories they have are always interesting lol.

I got 4 very large canvases to paint. One is going to have Irises on it- it's going to be a gift for a friend who is really going through it right now. The others - not sure yet

Have a blessed night! 

Sometimes Mother's Day is not the kind of day, we would want it to be. Wounds run deep in the lives of some where love was supposed to be. But through the eyes of Christ we can give love beyond our own and extend a Grace that comes from Heaven's throne. 
So rest in peace, o' dear one. Your troubles are now past and maybe somehow you'll see God's love instead of the shadows of our past. Rest in Peace, Mom. 1931-2010.

What's It Like In Heaven

What's it like in Heaven? Oh Lord I want to know, 

To hear the Angels singing, flying around Your throne

T'would melt the heart of all, who stood by as their music flows

Holy, Holy, Holy The angelic chorus goes 

O' What's it like in Heaven? Where the Crystal River runs,

Roots grow deep beside her, Trees bringing forth their fruit for all time

No taste on earth could match them, thier food so divine

Glory Glory Glory, all creation sings of Your Glory

Oh What's like in Heaven? Oh Lord I want to know

Angels & Saints all hush to silence, as You walk in splendor by,

The space of an hour in silence, in reverent awe are they

The beat of a million angel wings, fan silent honor to Thee

O' What's a soul like me? O'Lord, that I should ask to know?

Touch the coal to my lips, pull me under your wing, and forgive me all of my sins,

For at last I see my heart's desire, you've opened the veil for me

For the cross is the glance unto Heaven and that's all I'll ever need.

Journey of Closeness

I walk a journey seeking closeness

Evading it seems to me

for One who wants me close

It seems to fail at every turn

Oh, why the veil after the cross?

Why silence after reconciliation?

What penance would be great enough to open Heaven for me?

Oh why must my heart break, for years of abandonment?

I did not choose my parentage, even You did that for me

Must I be ever motherless, must You hide Her too?

Perhaps it is my theology, will I  never understand?

Or am I so broken that I'll never see, the love Heaven has for me?

Oh show me Your path to journey on, open my eyes to see

You died upon a cross for me

Please be a shepherd for me 

Staple Free is the way to be!!! They are gone from my life and I am OVER JOYED!!!
Back to work next week! YEAH!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!!
