choking worries


Sometimes it's easier for me to express my feelings visually, than in words. Here I was processing while painting how hope feels at time. I want to hope but the circumstances of life come in loud and dark, and threatening my view, my hope. There are still glimmers even in the darkest times, yet I long to break free, to not let my circumstances dictate how I feel, to see what's unseen, to see God's purpose, which I believe to be overarchingly good, in my day. Having hope, having a whole heart is a battle.

This is really beautiful! I like how everything is flowing and intertwined, just like life and it's circumstances, hopes and dreams. May Hope reign!

This is so beautiful. I believe that the beauty God brings in to our lives is intertwined with the hope he wants us to keep in our hearts. Your life reflects beauty in everything you touch. Hang on to that!
