a backdrop of sky blue a picture- portrait of You evidence how profound I sense Your presence all around I love walking and taking in all the beautiful things He has made. The sky was cerulean blue, the air crisp and clean, and the color of the trees glowed against the autumn sky. I woke […]

I spend a lot of my time feeling distracted. Being a creative person- there’s always some song I am compelled to play on the piano, or an amazing sunset I want to take a picture of… or I am inspired to read my Bible, or write. All of these things require my undivided attention, […]
