Well, I am living with Francesca and Billy again.
I feel very content and at home. It is wonderful to be greeted every day by people who truly love you and share their lives with you. We are crowded and Paige has given up her space for me again, she is a tenderhearted person now and a truly great person in the making. Of course our cramped conditions intensify our desire for a home that is more suited to our large and increasing number. We are believing that God has everything we need to move forward in living out the dreams He has put in all of our hearts.
Thats a lot of dreams! .
Billy dreams,
Francesca dreams,
Gail dreams,
Paige dreams,
Bailey dreams,
Avery dreams,
Blaise dreams,
Baby dreams.
Do you believe God can handle it? We do!
Philippians 1:6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

Bring Heaven to Earth through our gifts.
Speaking of Jesus, Ephesians 4:8 says ..."When he ascended on high, he led captives in his train and gave gifts to men".
I want to talk to you about the gifts of creativity. Our church body is blessed with creative, talented people that lead us in worshipping the Lord extravagantly in service, print, video, hospitality, music, dance, drama, banners and more. How many ways can the Lord express Himself through us? The answer is as many ways as there are hands and hearts yeilded to him. We will see the unfolding of many more expressions of praise as we live out our destinies in Jesus Christ.
Heaven comes to Earth when a person of God's creation moves in their giftings, when the talent the Father put in the soul of that person is expressed for His glory. A foot reaches the promised land when one believes that God has a plan and destiny for their talent and that person steps out in their calling.
I am stepping out in a talent that the Lord has given me. I draw and paint pictures. I want to worship the Lord in color and form, I want to share the visions that he gives me for the body of Christ. I am asking you to help me imagine what this could look like in our church. I want other artist to join me in learning to experience God in this way. I know you are out there. There is a place for you. Help me dream big with God for the expression of this gift He has for us.
Lets talk about it. Gail Vinson

Into the mix
No longer can I hold myself back. I want to get into the mix. After reading the blogs of my special people, I am inspired by the open heartfelt exchanges between those I love. I often wanted to comment, but felt it was rude if I didn't also make myself open to comment. So I will write a little now and then.
Putting thoughts down in writing has always been like pulling a tooth when I was six years old. I've got the string around it but I find it so hard to pull out. This is just the venue I need to make room for some new permenent teeth. The kindness and encouragement of your words to each other has made me bold.
