My Faith Journal

Here are some more examples of just "playing" with techniques, bearing in mind each page just happens there is no end result.  I hope my journal will be an inspiration to others to explore, to journey, to find healing, to enjoy.

"Healing Through The Arts can show you that life can be more, or in some way, better than before. True healing is not waiting for time to heal. It is creating opportunities where healing takes place, and the process of mending can make us stronger.

Through Art we gain a sense of life’s meaning. When we create art, we make something that did not exist before and can preserve it to enjoy. Our interaction with art provides a break from the pace of routine, where we can notice be unique. You do not need to be creative to participate, only a desire to learn and enjoy the adventure.” quote found at http://www.htta.org/about-us/art-healing

Golden Hands - Grow deep roots of faith

Afraid to Turn the Next Corner

“Deep roots anchor us with the truth that God is in control when surprises blow like strong, unruly winds.
Deep roots hold us steady in the peace of God during the storm that didn’t show up on the radar.
Deep roots find nourishment in God’s grace when the surface gets awfully dry.
Deep roots allow for growth of faith in God not previously possible.
I’m learning to not be so afraid of what might be around the next corner. Even if it does catch me off guard. I close my eyes and whisper to the Lord … deeper still.” written by http://lysaterkeurst.com/

This was made with paper mache and placed on limestone, hope this has as much meaning to you has it had for me which these words inspired.  Perhaps they mean differently.
