PERSONAL ADVENTURES
DANCING INTO THE UNKNOWN IN THE PURSUIT OF FAITH, HOPE, AND ULTIMATELY, LOVE
"But suddenly, I saw. I saw the purple shadow beneath the egg. I saw the pink light from the sun outside the window. I even saw the little yellow moon of light reflected on the top of the egg. I had finally begun to see"
The All American Girl - Meg Cabot
I remember reading this little excerpt from the book and getting hooked to the thought of being able to 'see more'. That an egg is not just a white egg, but an egg is an array of different colors in reflection of its surrounding. In the past few years, it has been such a privilege to explore the things that I could not previously see, action things that seemed out of grasp, and pour out in a way that my heart to head could not have imagined before. The treasures of this journey, are the personal works you will see in this section - works that I believe reflect the joy I have now as a creator. In these, I give thanks to God who gets all the glory. He is the joy of my salvation and I trust that as you view the works, you will see growth and maturity, passion and zeal, and desire to share the treasures I have found.
"The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to grant to those who mourn in Zion — to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified. They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations."
Isaiah 61:1-4 (ESV)
