Sins Repeated

Believing the whispered lies as hearts spiral down ~ the sweet poison ~ penalties for sins repeated ~ on wings love rises from the ashes ~ light breaks darkness ~ forgiveness for the sins repeated

Lives lie still in disarray

"Stillness"

"Glory Rising"

Hopes lie quiet in turmoil  

Grace fills hearts in pain

Mercy fills souls in need

Passion is ignited in flame 

Love is forged in fire

As my heart beats

Worlds collide at dawn

Eclipsing the dark horizon

Forged in eternal fires

Brilliant rays of light

Reaching arms to hold

Wounded hearts of man

Snowy Fire

During a the Pacific Northwest winter snowstorm of 2012 we were without power for four days.  We spend much time cooking outside and enjoying campfires as that was warmer than sitting in a cold dark house.  This is a 30 second video of the campfire blazing against a snowy backdrop with a breeze blowing the wind chimes in the background.

I find that 30 seconds can be all that is needed to unwind, recharge and go to another place. The sounds of the crackling fire and soft chimes set the mood as the bright flames cast dancing shadows against the darkness reflected against the white snow.  Enjoy!!!

He knows ...

"Santa's Watching"       Watercolors       Border & text added with Paint Shop Pro

Maleko ©2011

A whimsical watercolor painting of Santa Claus peering through a frosted window.  He is always watching and knows if you've been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake.

Reminds me of Jesus who is always watching us.  He sees and He knows, but we do not have to earn gifts from Him.  Jesus freely gives to those who chose to believe in Him.  His promises are sure, His love and mercy endures and He gives us the greatest gift, eternal life.

A snowman sledding down a hill 'out of control' captures the often felt winter time and 

holiday emotions.  Let this be a reminder to slow down during the holiday season, reflect 

on the reasons we celebrate and not live our lives out of control.

May you and your family feel God's blessing this Christmas season.

Resting...

   "Tree of Light"    

Maleko ©2011

I am His desire

I am His beloved

I am His child

Even in the darkest night

I am His joy

I am His passion

I am His child

Even as the storm rages

So..... why....

Do I feel anxious?

Do I feel alone?

Do I feel abandoned?

Be still and rest for

the Lord is good to you

Like new fallen snow 
covered by grace and love

What do you do when ............?

Resolve
to live in the moment,

let go of the worry

and

open up to the possibilities
and the spontaneous.

"Twenty years from now you will be more
disappointed by the things you didn't do
than by the ones you did do."
-Mark Twain
