Sketch Rabbits Foot
The thing that I always think about, concerning a rabbit’s foot is something an old comedian said. It wasn’t lucky for the rabbit. What fascinates me about rabbit’s feet are the ones that don’t become key chains, the ones who got away. God put agility and speed in these small, cute creatures. They may look timid, and be the pattern for chocolate bunnies, but watch them run. It reminds me that God places gifts in all of us that can swiftly help us to overcome, or outrun what we’re facing. Outpacing your challenges is not luck, but a gift from God. The Psalmist said by my God have I ran…

Sketch Raccoon By A Tree
They say raccoons are almost as commonly found by trash cans as they are trees. Yet have you ever noticed, you don’t see many trash can images? It’s not pretty, but raccoons find something valuable in what we discard. How many times, have we thrown away potential, dreams, or possibilities because something stained it? I don’t mean physically of course, but emotionally. Mentally how often have we decided we can’t, when we faced opposition? Please let me encourage you, there’s still value in some things you’ve given up on. Just ask the smiling raccoons.

Watercolor Dapple Gray
I love all horses, but the dapple gray ones are among my favorites. There’s something about the grayish coat, topped with gray spots, that are so beautiful. It reminds me that God can create beauty in unexpected places, with limited hues. Perhaps you have a situation that is so personal, you only see gray skies, topped by a set of grayer circumstances? I would encourage you to take it to Jesus. He can make snow white, your dapple gray problem.

iPainting Give Me Your Tired
“Give me your tired, …” the wonderful things about the words of this incredible poem tied to Lady Liberty, is that it speaks to every American. There have been times in our country when tiredness hit. Washington was no doubt tired at Valley Forge. Abraham Lincoln was tired after years of war. Roosevelt felt it, but one look at our freedoms, our purpose, and the unique God given gift we have, and they were revived. Washington received the strength needed, not only to win the American Revolution, but to lead the country as President for two terms. Lincoln received the strength to comfort a weary nation at Gettysburg. President Roosevelt…
