Several years ago the Lord asked me to “take the journey before the people.” I knew exactly what He meant when He asked me to take that leap of faith and this blog was birthed as my “yes” to His request. I knew that it would be risky but worthy business. I also knew that public writing was only going […]
In this graduating season of reflection, while many are all balloons and butterflies, there are some who struggle with regret and feelings of sadness. _ Many look back and automatically savor the moments of glory but many look back and seem to feel invisible, unimportant, devalued and worthless. _ Most of us, if honest, can look back and find an […]
This small 10 X 10 canvas holds much weight. In fact, as I prayed, painted, worshipped and followed Holy Spirit’s lead, I felt the full weight of Glory. He spoke directly to my heart and expressed His message through my hand and onto this canvas pouring out a specific anointing on this particular piece. These are some of the words […]
These pour paintings have been a messy, marvelous, new adventure! No paintbrush comes into play and I have very little control as to what the design turns out to be.

I have always been a little outside of the box. I love seeing treasure sifted from trash and I get giddy when I see someone repurpose things in unexpected ways. Earrings made from old watch pieces, bracelets strung from guitar strings, hair bands out of old telephone chords, canvases full of paint with sheet music, bible verses and quotes Mod […]

I am going to exercise my creative muscles for His Glory every day this Lent. Today is day 1 and I am being obedient. I wrote for the first time in a while on […]
Chewing on Luke 20 and 2 Cor. 5 this morning. Jesus tells us to be aware of self-righteous leaders and not to follow their example. We still respect them as people and treat them kindly; yet He tells us not to do what they do. Man-made tradition is not always synonymous with God’s truth! Lord, please show me what this […]
“It is wise to think before we speak. It is wise to remember not every thought is meant to be spoken.” katiejwilson.com Ecclesiastes has always been a challenge for me to enjoy.
