Looking at the Moon

One of my Favorite collage pieces is a mixed media collage on canvas called You and Me, portraying a hopeful mom looking at the moon and imagining her child. This last year and even this week we have dealt with the pain and suffering of a miscarriage and illness, also with the disappointment of lost hope. I have this canvas hanging on my bedroom wall and it greets me every morning with the realization that as long as I am a mother I will always have that Hope and my future is a blessed future as long as there is a God who gives everything to us even His one and only Son. Letting go can be very hard and even thinking of losing control of anything in our lives can seem hopeless, but the realization and letting go of control is a way of peace for our lives. I am living in that peace. The peace that only comes with Jesus Christ being in control and knowing

Hope

that His love is Life.
