A New Year
I've been so blessed today, the first day of the year. I've been touch by sweet friend Debby's words of encouragement and support. I liked what she said about Ali Edwards choosing a word for the year and I've decided to do the same because I felt I really need to in the most sincere way. The word I've chosen is conviction. The definition for the word is:
noun
1. a fixed or firm belief.
Synonyms 1. See belief.
Antonyms 5. doubt, uncertainty.
Moving through the end of 2007, I've been filled with the antonyms of doubt and uncertainty. Even though I've believed in God all my life I feel the need for a stronger conviction in Him and His direction for my life. When life threatens to overwhelm you one is so quickly and brutally reminded of how weak you can become. Coincidentally both Debby and I shared in our own way how Beth Moore has touched our lives.
On that note expect to see more postings of illustrations, something I have been short on these past few months. I'm thankful if you'll just hang in there and be patient with me, my plate has been full and overflowing.

happy New year to you too! looking forward to seeing more gorgeous illustrations and creative goodness!!
Thanks for visiting my blog, Maggie. I scrolled through yours a little bit - although I didn't know which one to choose!
I, too love Beth Moore's teachings. She is going to be in Vancouver at the end of Feb and I'm planning on going over to hear her speak then.
