It is within my power either to serve God or not to serve Him. Serving Him, I add to my own good and the good of the whole world. Not serving Him, I forfeit my own good and deprive the world of that good which was in my power to create.--Leo Tolstoy
Have you considered how happy your art makes God today? Do what He made you to do. No excuses. The heavens delight when you do.

Laura -- it's been too long since I've been here. But I love the encouragement that spills out of your heart onto these pages. And I love how it speaks directly to me.
Love, love, abundant love to you.
WOW. Thank you! This was so inspirational. Love it. And I love that picture. So plump. Juicy. Full of sweet life. Mmmm.
Powerful challenge in the quote you shared. Good stuff!
Have a wonderful Saturday...
You are such a blessing always~
Do I hear you saying I need to quit making excuses and start writing? Or did Tolstoy say that? Love you, girl. Happy weekend!
Oh boy. I'm not good at this. Still? Me? Art?
Exactly!! Couldn't agree more with your message today! :)
You've no idea how much I need that encouragement today, Laura. No. idea. Thank you. Just thank you. Love, Patricia
I'm in love with that picture and its so perfect with the quote (a crowd of tomatoes gathering). Thanks for the encouragement of your words, I did embrace my art today.
I just love this. Much of what my heart has been on has been this very thing. Beauty here, friend. Your art, a blessing.
Love the quote AND the photo, the suggestion that doing something with the tomatoes can be art. You've warmed my heart with this.
My goal for life is to serve Him. Period. I'm disappointed sometimes when things don't seem to be going the direction I had thought they would, BUT I discover that HE's behind the difference, not just my thinking. I'm so glad I can trust Him. Nothing else counts.
I am still trying to see my writing as art. Your art here is beautiful.
What a wonderful reminder. That photo makes me miss our typical tomato harvest. None this year, so it's good to see such a lovely vision. I can almost taste them just looking.
As to your thoughts, I appreciate your inspiration so much.
