"One of the things that continues to stand out for me as I do this prompt is the reminder that photos are such an excellent way to give thanks for life."
Ali Edwards
For many years now I have painted a picture which then carries my word for the year. These paintings vary in size and have a place in my house.
They hold experiences that I've tried to capture on canvas. As I look around I notice that I am most affected by the sun rising, I am so grateful to have a place close to my home on the water where I can see the complete rising. Every time I am there I feel more mindful of God, nurtured by his artwork, and ready to turn back to Him. These paintings hold space for that live experience when I can't go.
Truly these words have infiltrated my thoughts and actions.
They are like chapter headings to my life.
