Sweet Jesus, I’m Still Here!

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.☺️

Not the same but it only took less than 15 minutes to draw. Will redraw another time.

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

  1. 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!

    1. 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!💕
