“I feel the Spirit moving, feel the Spirit moving down deep in my heart….” 🎶
Pentecost is wild. God is with us!!! Thank you, Jesus!

Happy hump day folks! I’m Sarah, and this is a filter that reminds me of a Van Gogh painting. I have removed social media from my phone for a while, and it’s been really nice. Currently, I am typing on my iPad. I’m working on some things right now and praying for discernment about what God has for me— all the things to say yes and no to, you know? I’ve honestly been too busy and feel I need to keep things simple. I need to *abide*—-Here’s to trying! How are you all doing? What do you need today? ✨

I’m gently reminded of this often. 🫶

When a women’s retreat takes over the church… 😂🫶✝️🎉🤭

As my friend says, “Belovedness is our starting point.”

Poetry month:

Praying by Mary Oliver
It doesn’t have to be
the blue iris, it could be
weeds in a vacant lot, or a few
small stones; just
pay attention, then patch

a few words together and don’t try
to make them elaborate, this isn’t
a contest but the doorway

into thanks, and a silence in which
another voice may speak.

May you all have a blessed Easter weekend, friends!

“Self-denial means knowing only Christ, and no longer oneself. It means seeing only Christ, who goes ahead of us, and no longer the path that is too difficult for us… . Self-denial is saying only: He goes ahead of us; hold fast to him.” — Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Lent is nearly over, friends; Easter is almost here. How has Jesus revealed himself to you during this time?

My early season tulips are blooming! I planted these for my birthday gift to myself in the fall so it’s extra fun to see them come up! And is my first time growing them!

Happy International Women’s Day!
I remember being insecure about being called feminine at one point in my life, especially in my art work. That doesn’t bother me anymore; in fact, it’s something beautiful that I can offer as a woman! To all my ladies, you are beautiful and unique and wonderful. I love finding the treasures of each woman I encounter. Thank you for helping me see mine too. 📷

Thank you Lord!

Whether you are putting words to paper, painting a scene, cooking a meal, or doing a job to the best of your ability...you are telling a story.

You're telling a story about yourself, about the world, about the hope that lives within you. And whether you are weaving a great tale or serving a warm meal to those you love, you are planting hope and fighting despair, one brave minute at a time.

So take these last few days of February to delve deep into all the delights around you, and take joy in the world our God has given us.

It’s so easy to get caught up in our own worries, or the state of the world, or our crazy schedules, not to mention a ton of other daily concerns. Creativity offers us a blessed reprieve, even if it’s only for a few precious moments every day.

02/26/2024

May we bless those around us. Speak blessing, choose forgiveness, love like Jesus. Help us, Holy Spirit.

My city of Norfolk, may you be blessed and may you be a blessing.

How can you pause and find “earth crammed with heaven” today?

02/23/2024

Sometimes you see things clearly. And you receive the gift of the mere seconds briefly gazed upon in wonder! And then you go back to eating your snack.

02/21/2024

Today let's cultivate the gentleness and patience to see the beauty around us!

I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world…

How is God filling your “inner chamber” with his beauty and goodness today?
