September Bubbles

Our responsible decisions are honored by Him, ESPECIALLY ones made in pain...(and new moms are a really good metaphor for that! ) *~pop

1) Jesus most (J) 2) Others second (O) 3) Yourself last (Y) And ironically enough, these people usually have a JOY that transcends through any hardship or suffering, piercing through doubt and confusion. An attitude that truly can make you examine yourself.  These people have done that for me, and every time I linger on the beauty of these people that have surrendered their life to the love-filled path of God, I strive to be that kind of person too. :) And thus concludes another sporadic thought with lasting impressions, aka: a september bubble. *~pop

Oh, clouds. You are so much more than white puffs on a blue surface. You are a mystical theatre of heavenly wonder and majesty. You display power and emotion in some of the mightiest ways. Today, I finished one of the hardest school years of my life, all thanks to a God who sticks with me no matter what. I am beyond blessed to have gotten through this year, and just as the clouds peacefully float through the atmosphere, my spirit is peacefully floating in His arms. #blessed

OH MY GOSH! I just discovered that one of my favorite movies, "Meet the Robinsons" is based on a children's book called, "A Day with Wilbur Robinson!"  I am beyond amused, not only that this is a book, but that the characters are so LIKE the original designs!! THAT STUFF MAKES ME HAPPY! Seeing stories reach their potential is one of the processes I truly adore to see.   :))) *brb, buying the book*

how painting really feels like (aka, what I do when I'm alone) Eye of the Painter.

I'm not done with it yet, but this is my doodle for Mon-Doodle-Day! If you're curious to what it is, just think of the Phoenix, the mythological bird that rises from the ashes of fire. Now, imagine, that instead of rising from the ashes, it rose from the rotten dirt from below. Easter, which is the celebration of new life in Jesus, has a reason to be placed in the spring. The holiday's fresh spirit can be celebrated at any time. The flowers blossom, and burst from the ground in new life, just as the Flower Phoenix does, spreading it's wings out like the arms of Christ on the cross (if you don't get the metaphor by now, I'll talk to you in person ;D) but basically, Jesus's power is what this bird is: the springtime newness of his love. We may be dirt now, but by His love, we can be flowers in the spring.
