The Creative Life

Betty Boop Car - Hot Pink w/ A Touch of Blue

I could not resist posting another pic of BettyBoop car. Don't you just love the fact that they tatooed her too. The pink rose on the window is a girly touch and if you could see the pink dice on the mirror they would bring you laughter too.

There's just something about this car that brings me joy. I wonder if the artist that painted her felt the joy and excitement when he was working on her?

Today I begin a study on "The Creative Life", a book I have had since 2005 that I keep going back to over and over again. It's by Alice Bass.
I wrote this inside the cover, can't remember where I read it, maybe in this book

"Everything we need is in a seed"

Every day I have the opportunity to offer something of myself, my ideas, my perspective, the work of my hands. And every day I take in the offerings of others. Creativity is a big part of my life. This book helps me and you to explore God's design for our creative life.

I will begin to explore my imagination (Image-i-nation; another place to live) and establish an environment for my creativity.

May the words on my lips and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, Oh God!

40 days In God's Presence

Well God did some amazing things for me this past 40 days. Spending time in God's presence is not as hard as you might think. When you begin to acknowledge Him you just find yourself in His presence. But sometimes there is a depth that occurs and you finally "get it." It is whatever you might be searching for, looking to do, or finally understanding a scripture.

I am so grateful for God wanting to spend time with me. As a matter of fact I know He desires it more than we realize it. He just reaffirmed to me that in the body of Christ we all need one another. Everybody has something to offer and when that thing or that person is missing we are not whole. I don't know about you but I want to be whole and complete. So I say thank you to the ones that have commented on my blog and been encouraged by it bc you sure have encouraged me and given me strength when I felt so weak.

Get Down To Business

My B&N peppermint tea with Noel's coffee cuff. Oh so yummy!!

Yesterday I actually was showing my collage to a person and they asked me why I had not started a business. They went on to say that if and when I did they would help back me financially. What are you waiting for, you might say? God's timing!! I can feel somethings happening and they feel like they are just around the corner getting ready to burst out. Its sort of like Spring when all the crocuses and daffodils begin to pop out. You see the new growth and the beauty all around you. And you want to be Spring, you want to be the new growth, the New Beginning.
