That’s how my journal entry from July 20, 2017 started, “Sweet Jesus, I’m still here!” I was praising God despite what I was going through at the time. And after reading that particular entry, that basically spelled out everything I was dealing with, I had to humble myself and thank God for where I am today. Y’all, I made it!
The things I am currently dealing with are nowhere in comparison with what I was going through back then. Honestly, I feel embarrassed about my complaints. God has brought me through some very tough times, and I’m still here!
Please forgive me, Lord, for not being as grateful as I should’ve been. Amen
A couple of weeks ago, I was notified that I had won a ticket to a Paint & Chat (too early for sipping) event. Here’s what I painted and what I decided to recreate moments ago, digitally. I needed that painting session yesterday and to meet new people. It was very therapeutic.☺️


I pray you have a wonderful day and fabulous weekend. Love ya!♥️

I love the painting! The flower pot is one of my favorite colors, too.
Compared to the digital version, the painted one is my favorite. I’m glad you got a chance to get out and enjoy yourself.
I’m attending a virtual question & answer book talk later today and then out for an early dinner with a co-worker of mine.
Happy Saturday!

Thank you! I like the painted version better. The other is much too dark and not as detailed. Going to edit it later. Wanted to see if I could replicate it.☺️
Sounds like you have a great day planned. Enjoy!💕
