The Word – that Light which shines in the darkness is enduring, and prevails – always.
Christmas serves to remind us of this. For within that Light is the hope of a better day to come. No darkness can ever extinguish or overcome this Light.
A quilted rendition of the archetypical Tree of Life. This reflects the artist’s Celtic heritage. It includes both the Ogham and Runic Alphabets. The Green Man is also depicted. The piece is scattered with various forms of wildlife for added interest and effect.
Giving thanks for little, everyday things can lift our spirits and offer a sense of joy. This joy comes from within us, and cannot be taken away… no matter how troubled the world around us may be. For it is a gift of God.
An Easter message offering assurance of God’s Presence. Bonhoeffer preaches we live our lives at the foot of the Cross. Therefore within the embrace of Christ, thru difficult and challenging times. Never alone, always with Him by our side.
A quilt depicting the Memorial Cairn on the Culloden battlefield reminds us that the resolution of conflict is possible. The birth of Christ does offer us peace on earth – if we truly take this message to heart. All things are possible… even the resolution of conflict.
An Easter reflection on the importance of friends in our lives. Jesus has the disciple with him in he darkness of Gethsemane. We have friends who care when our own path becomes troubled, who walk it with us. God gave us each other, that our lives might be enhanced and enriched. Friends – the flowers in the garden of life. And… a gift from God above.
A poem on the Star of Bethlehem; how its light shines upon us at this holy time of year. God’s enduring and comforting Presence is always with us – be it a bright star in the sky… or the flickering flame on a Menorah. He walks it with us regardless.
A meditation on how the Holidays as we know and celebrate them, were once considered Holy Days. The importance of tuning out the commercial ideal; and discovering for ourselves what this time of thanks and joy mean for us as individuals.
Join the journey as I write my own
“How-to”
Sharing random thoughts and musings on spirituality, faith and friendship…
the questions of life, the challenges… and yes, even the frustrations…
sprinkled with a dash of hope
and encouragement.
Words and quilts express it best
filling my journal with colour.
So… how do you ‘muse your life?
