You are NOT overlooked. You are not forgotten. You are not unheard. You are NOT a mistake!  You are KNOWN by Him. You can praise Him because you ARE fearfully AND wonderfully made BY Him!

I hope you can take a few moments to read our blog and read the 24 verses of Psalm 139. Read them slowly to soak on the words and let them sink into your heart. The words are describing a Good Father and His precious child. These verses are incredible Truths to combat negative thoughts and feelings.

What IS Peace Anyway?

The beach is often the birthing place of many of my designs, especially when I need to create a big batch of artwork.

The Good Shepherd by exchanging places with His precious sheep, accepted death to preserve His sheep’s life.
