a painted mirror


I love this old mirror, but the finish was rubbing off...gave it a bit of a facelift and now am thinking about hanging it on the living room wall.

Fall Lunch

"Lunch under an umbrella, in the warm sunshine, surrounded by autumn color and a lawn splashed with the first of the fallen leaves."

Beauty

"Worship Me in the beauty of holiness. All true beauty reflects some of who I am. I am working My ways in you: the divine Artist creating loveliness within your being. My main work is to clear out debris and clutter, making room for My Spirit to take full possession."

--from Jesus Calling by Sarah Young

Dreaming of Picnics

On this very rainy day, I'm dreaming of the simple joys of picnics...

"He looked in the refrigerator and found four lemons and made a jar of lemonade. He found cold chicken, and then, a fine wedge of Brie and French rolls. There were berries left from breakfast, and Puny's banana bread that hadn't even been cut.

He put it all into a picnic basket and fetched a starched tablecloth out of the bottom drawer of the buffet."
