WOYWW: Pruning and Blooming!

My desk doesn't look much different

from week to week,

but I assure you there are 

SOME changes and additions!

Like these ATC backgrounds I've been making.

They're hidden there somewhere,

actually almost hidden by the rag used to

dab and wipe away paint.

On my journal this morning,

a verse from John 15:2:

"He takes away every branch

that does not bear fruit."

Pruning is painful,

so difficult to do, 

even if you're the vinegrower

who tends the plants,

or an artist

who throws or gives away

materials that don't work,

or that you don't use.

If we don't take time 

to purge or prune,

we are left with 

dead weight (loss of efficiency),

and spend so much time 

looking for things buried 

in piles.

Jesus is like a gardener,

and we are His garden.

He takes care of us,

prunes us when needed,

so that we will be fruitful

and BLOOM!

Would you like to help me get my art
