This was taken at 5:30 in the morning
The picture is not very clear because I manipulated it with
the BeFunky camera app on my Ipad.
This doesn't seem any clearer.
But you may be able to see my two canvases at the back,
well, actually 4 canvases,
On my journal is one of my favorite verses.
It's from 2 Timothy 1:6:
"Stir up the gift of God that is in thee."
All of us have been given wonderful gifts.
We have to discover it, use it,
develop it, and share it.
If we do that we will bloom and grow.
We will be a blessing to all around us.
I don't think I have discovered all my gifts yet....
have you?
Joining the lovely Julia for a

ReplyDeleteI love that first image of your desk, it has a great vintage feel to it, almost like a painting! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
ReplyDeleteI was in the process of leaving you a comment and this time my computer not just locked up, it quit. I got a blue screen and a fatal exception error. I don't know what it is about your blog, but it doesn't like my computer.

ReplyDeleteMorning Patsy, well I love the first photo. It is so artistic. The canvases are beautiful as well. Hope you have a blessed week.
ReplyDeleteI rather like your BeFunky photo. It sort of looks like an old painting. Great journal page again today. Lovely colors, so soothing.
ReplyDeleteHi Patsy,
ReplyDeleteYour first photo is interesting - kind of cool, actually. As usual your canvases are inspiring. I'd like to think of myself as always evolving - developing new gifts all the time.
Happy WOYWW

That is a fun app, but it doesnt make your desk unrecognisable to me....i know thats not the point, but i would know it anywhere! You get up very early, does this give you some contemplative time before the day begins? Love todays journal page, i think many of us strive so, probably without realising our God given gifts so to do.
ReplyDeleteFabulous page and a beautiful verse. Happy WOYWW!

I really like that scripture! Amen - Stir me up Lord!
ReplyDeleteAs always, your journal is inspiring! That is one of my favourite verses too. I am trying tio discover my gifts, but I do know that I was given a oretty rare gift. I love teenagers and they seem to respond to me, that is why I stay being a teacher, because I know that very few people enjoy them as much as I do.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW
LOVE that journal page! It's beautiful!
