Faith

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."   Hebrews 11:1

This week I have been "looking up" and keeping mine.   Hope all of you are as well.


Have a blessed week!

A Summer Landscape

Pastel Painting
The view from our hilltop inspired me a few evenings ago to paint this summer landscape.
It is a familiar scene that never fails to move me.   Often there will be cattle grazing on the hillside or deer in the meadow.

In the sky there may be a Red-Tailed Hawk on the wing.




Moth Hummingbird
Moths and butterflies flutter to the wildflowers that grow there.








For sure and for certain it is a place that is close to my heart.

Do you have a special spot that inspires you to paint,  take a photo, or write a poem?    If so I hope you will share.

Have a blessed week.

The sunflowers thought they would join in














 as well as the Rose of Sharon

















and Queen Anne's Lace.


Think I will too!



Hope everyone has a lovely week.
