Tonight
So tonight at the Vineyard we had a Celebration service. It was really good to be able to worship God with others. I tried painting again. It's been awhile since I have attemped it. It's such a totally different experience. Because when you do movement (dance) it's there one moment and then gone, same with a note sung. But a painting is something that people can look at for a long time. Once that paint is on that canvas that's it, there it is to bee looked at, studied, critsized or complemented. I find myself so vunerable in this expression. But I'm still going to do it. I want people to see , if nothing else, that it doesn't matter what it looks like GOD is blessed. We are created for HIS purpose and his purpose is his pleasure. So my I be pleasing to him and bless him. I guess I was just encouraging myself a bit there :) A woman came up to me at the end of the service and told me how blessed she was by my painting. That was so cool. So I came home and finnished it. Here it is.
I wanted to originally do three paintings, one with just the seed, one with new growth, and one with full bloomed flower. But I just condensed it allinto one. I like it.
Here are two shots I got of dancing. I love when Christina dances with material. She's awesome :)
I also LOVE IT when the kids dance. I got a great little video of Christina and this cutie dancing!

Here I am, jumping on the bandwagon! I love the new look too and love that you are stepping out in so many creative ways in worship. I am so proud of my little sister! The picture is beautiful. Just gave me a great idea. The girls and I could try painting to worship music as part of thier education. It would be great fun!
I love the words and picture together esp for a wroship setting. That phrase is so good to meditate on - be planted - in God, in the word, in the relationships and callings He has for me. I think its speaking to me too!!!
I liked your painting.
Even before it was finished.
that cutie is ava. thanks to all of you who reach out to the little ones and encourage them to express their passion.

Right sorry I didn't say that was Ava. She is so awesome. I had a blast dancing with her. Elisa I can send you the video.
Hi, I just found your blog. I love that you dance and paint. I love those things too. It's that whole dance-art-poetry-music flow. I relate to your comments about paintings sticking around long after the experience of expression unlike a dance or song(not recorded on tape or video right). Anyhow, glad to see you dancing and balancing family, worshipping Jesus, and creativity. Yea!
