I love the moon pretty much whenever I see it and whatever phase it is in! This past week I had some beautiful views of the moon over the city and I took this picture from my balcony.
One early morning this week as I rode my bike to school, I had the most beautiful view of the full moon when I turned a corner. I didn't get a picture of it, but it took my breath away! I love the way the sky declares the glory of God!

I always enjoy the flowers at the park where I walk on the weekend. This weekly walk with a friend has been a time of sharing our hearts and praying for our loved ones for many years.
It's pretty wonderful when a weekly rhythm includes exercise, friendship, prayer and a beautiful location!

At the beginning of this month, I was able to have an Art Show at a Bakery nearby. It was vulnerable and stretching to share my artwork and my book (which both represent my heart and my story) with the community around me. I was so encouraged by those who came out to support me...
Kind words were spoken,
Books, paintings, stickers and cards were purchased,
Good conversations were had,
and a friend even brought me flowers!
It is my prayer that I will be obedient to follow where I feel God is leading, even when it is awkward or hard or uncomfortable.
