Hello FEBRUARY {Photodump & Sketchbook Tour}

Howdy y’all! ❤

❤ And Howdy, February! ❤

WoW. Was Valentine’s Day yesterday? Seriously?

2022 is rolling on . . . kinda too quick for me, I must say 😛 😉 ❤

So. Much. Has. Happened. In two months.

Therefore . . . I figured An Unfinished Story was probably due another post ❤

So. Here we go: A badly-needed photodump & another sketchbook tour!

• PHOTODUMP

*Note: all of these pictures are very random, but fun 😉 ❤

And that concludes our February Photodump! ❤

Now . . . moving on . . . ❤ ❤

• SKETCHBOOK TOUR

Once again, keep in mind that these are really random . . .

{ And here are a few sneak peeks of the illustrations I’ve completed so far for the book I’m illustrating . . . ❤ }

And that wraps up the sketchbook tour!

Phew! Lots of photos, lots of “happenings” . . . ❤

BUT . . . before you skedaddle just yet . . .

Here’s something to ponder ❤

I so love this promise ❤

I was sitting up late the night before last, just relishing this Truth. Human love will forever be shifting, forever be uncertain. If we bank our security and “okay-ness” on a sinking-sand source like that one, we’re just asking for heartache. No wonder we crash!

But wrap your trust around an anchor-like promise coming from the mouth of our LORD, and you’ve got peace like a river. Joy like a fountain. Love like an ocean. Even in the midst of onslaughts of trouble . . .

I have to be continually reminding myself of this. This whole concept of consciously, consistently shifting my “okay-ness” from things of temporal, maybe even questionable value to the One who makes life worth living because He gave everything for us. For you. For me. For all of us . . . . Jesus Christ makes life worth living.

I read a quote on Pinterest once, and it stuck with me.

Living life for anything else other than Jesus is like a dull or broken pencil. It’s pointless.

Unknown

Now, I don’t think that was the exact wording (It’s been quite a while since I read it), but the message is the same. Being an artist and a wanna-be-writer, it stuck with me. It makes sense. We were created by God, for God, to live forever with God . . . saved by God, through the Son, Jesus Christ . . . that’s how believers ought to be living!

I hope and pray you’ll bank your worth, hope, joy and salvation in Jesus Christ. He’s the One holding your heartbeat. He’s the One who breathed the stars across the sky. He’s the One who holds the oceans in his hands, and He’s the One who died 2,000 years ago on a torturous Roman contraption called a cross and rose to life again three days later . . . for you. ❤

Let Him be you life-long Lord and lover. You won’t ever regret it.

Until next time y’all . . . ❤
