It is time for me to post another of my Cloud Paintings. As long as I can remember, I have admired artwork found in Nature itself--its beauty authored by the Creator. I even dreamed of painting a sunset with Him someday. I'm sure God smiled over that dream.
In 2007, I nearly died of MRSA. Two hours more, and I would have lost my leg, my life, or both. I prayed that God would let me live. Not long afterward, my family bought a camera for me. The gift I was given after my brush with death, allows me to see things hidden in nature.
Years ago, looking into the sky, I caught sight of this beautiful young man, who looks so much like my own dear son.
This morning I was thinking about how important hope is to each of us. I am so grateful God has given me a heart of hope. Life would not be worth living without hope. I am so glad He is the God of hope, and I do not walk my life's path alone.
Above you see the original cloud as I captured it with my camera.
Have a lovely day, dear Friends--My prayer for you, is that you will live in the Hope God gives to each of us. Hope lives.
Happy Paint Party Friday, all you lovely artists and beautiful people. May God bless you, dear ones, with His joy and peace. Thank you for dropping by.

Hope is in us from the moment we have any concept of self and a need to be noticed, fed, loved and so on. I imagine one would be very depressed if hope was not i one's radar.
Thanks for sharing.

So glad I stopped by PPF for the second time this week. This is such a moving post, thoughts, and art. Beautifully said and beautifully expressed in art and nature.
