Baby It's Fall Outside.....

Well here in Ohio, we're in the upper 60's today with a breeze. Chilly enough to wear long sleeves and a sweatshirt outside. I got a nice picture of my card while in the backyard. I took this picture just before the wind knocked it off.
This was supposed to be for SEPTVSN but I never finished it. I stamped using a real leaf. The leaf on the right I inked up the leaf then spritzed it with water and it ran like a watercolor painting. I like the effect. I used versamark on the cranberry cs then clear ep and it really darkened the colors on the cs and the leaves.
I am still in awe of our God who does so many wonderful things for us that we don't acknowledge or we take for granted. I guess it's like anything, when we're healthy we take our health for granted. I pray that I may continue to grow closer to God each day. I know that when He is my focus, the rest of my world falls into line. Blessings until next time.

This week has been a struggle for our family with my 89 year old dad having fallen in our home and eventually needing some nursing home care. It has been stressful and exhausting but I was SO thankful that I had started a Beth Moore Bible Study this week which coincidentally enough my sister-in-law started the same one in Dallas the very same night.
The strain of every day stress and work, plus THIS made me realize I am helpless and all I needed to do was just to touch his robe. The problems have not resolved themselves but I've got my fingers clinching His robe and His power is running through me. I CAN do all things through HIM who is strengthening me. If only I would reach for His robe without these ordeals in my life. ;)
