The tongue

How true! How many times have we made statements that we wish we had not made? Have you suffered this recently? Thought spoken without the benefit of thought is trouble. Scripture says the tongue is untamable. (Ps 5:9, PS 10:7, Ps 50:19, Ps 52:4, Prov 26:28, James 1:26, James 3:6, 1 Peter 3:10) Seems like along list doesn't it? You would be surprised how many references there are in scripture. There are many that are positive but many more that are negative about the tongue. Most of our troubles are self inflicted through our voice. (Matt 15:11-18, Luke 6:45, Romans 10:10) The Lord said that it is not what we put in our mouths that corrupts but what comes out of our mouths. Guard your mouth and tongues and avoid the embarrassment it creates. 

This week is another of the images from MoonTear. This is a special one. Love the eyes and how they follow you around the room.

This was a fun image to do. The hair on this kind of image is a challenge but fun to do.

That is it for this week. Thank you for stopping by and hopefully commenting. May the good Lord bless and keep you safe. Remember to always "Love The Details."

No Post

The moment

 
The above Brainy Quote is a profound statement in as much as it follows what several of my posts were about. The difference is it invites us to notice the moment as it is given to us. It is not a moment that is frozen in time that we can go to whenever we want. The fact is that few things that matter are frozen in time. Things that matter are, more often than not, fleeting. A child is mesmerized by the newness of the world around it. It notices everything, taking all it sees and building an image of what it is like to be alive. The new testament often references that God wants us to be as little children. (Matthew 18:3, Mark 19:14, Luke 18:16 - Luke 10:21, John 13:33, 1 John 3:7) Luke 10:21 is when Jesus thanks His Father for revealing the things he taught to little children. These verses come up often in the daily readings. It is a reminder that we are the children of God and should be as little children so that we can learn to understand Him and be like Him.

Today I am sharing another image from MoonTear. This image is of a princess as are most of the feminine images. This image was fun to do. All of these images were purchased and are copyrighted.

Miracles

What do you consider to be a miracle? What is the everyday miracle? Have you ever considered that the everyday life we live is an on going miracle? The simple definition according to Merriam-Webster is: " an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs. the healing miracles described in the Gospels. : an extremely outstanding or unusual event, thing, or accomplishment." That is very much what being born and living the life we are given here and now are, miracles. What we sometimes experience are extraordinary miracles of an unexpected nature. They can affect us directly personally or someone else. Miracles come in many forms. The very act of breathing is a miracle. Think about something. If you or I never came to be, what would the miracle be? Life is a miracle that mankind has no answer for it being. Scientists say it just happened. Really? In all of its diversity it just happened? Life is precious to our Lord. Precious enough that He gave His only begotten Son as atonement for our sins forever. What is a miracle? It is that we were born, experience life, love and even physical death. The miracle in all of this? This life is a birthing place of the spirit within us all. A place where we grow, learn and develop into the children of God. If that is not a miracle then I have no definition for miracles.

This week I have yet another image from MoonTear. This is small version of the image I am working on now. The larger version will take a while but this will give you an idea what to expect.
