Sometimes, sometimes You raise me up on eagle's wings, not so much to deliver from circumstance, but to stretch and teach when temporary irritations make the world too small and I become blind to the bigger story, the eternal story, and the scent of water in the desert.

when i become blind to the scent of water in the desert.
oh, jodi, this line alone.....
but the bigger truth here, the one of your glorious markers on the everyday... that of seeing past the moment, knowing there is a fullness beyond our comprehension. this is so. good.
I love it, I've never liked using magic markers but you make them look so pretty.
How can you make markers look like a Van Gogh?
And your words are making me cry. So good. So very, very, good.
Thanks for your continued prayers, friend.
I really like this, He lifts us up into His presence and fills us with hope, reminding us of the eternal, even while in present circumstances! Your so gifted in your writing and your art work!
God is good. Thanks, everyone.
Thoroughly enjoying my visit! Love the truth you have spoken.

Brian, thanks for letting me know. I re-entered it.
Wow. I wish I could make Magic Marker look that gorgeous... And your words are so beautiful, especially the line "the scent of water in the desert."
Thank you for your comment on my blog, too. I LOVE the way you described your favorite sounds. Wind in the trees is one of my favorites, too.
Friend! I've been away from blog world for ever so long. The scent of water in the desert--I know this joy.
oh... the last line grabbed me and hung on, as did your sketch. i love the lines, the flow, the color, the way you make me live in your art. and i love that you share this, because i feel this too. and i want to smell the water in the desert. love to you.... xo

Thanks, Hemant
93 degrees! I can't believe it! And I'm hearing reports that Canada is still in the mid-80's. So no chance of cooler weather down here until you guys cool off...
P.S. Thanks, as always, for your faithful prayers.
Love the bird's eye view! And the color.
Have you ever read The Scent of Water by Elizabeth Goudge? One of my favorite books.
Love this..pondering... :)
