Hearing

"I can't believe it"
She said as I showed her my sketch for a shirt designed for her
"That is me! That is what I have been questioning God about all weekend"



It has been an interesting journey for me.
I was freed from some baggage 2 months ago, and since then, I am more free to hear.

The Spirit speaks.


I hear.




I sketch.




She cried.







This one is called "Spirit Rain, Flood In, Pour Out"
This friend of mine was battling with thoughts of

Does God use me still?
Do I pour out what he has given me?

I think His answer was "YES"!

    Wow! What a powerful, creative gift you have been given . . to hear, to create, then to give a message that your friend can literally wear. Reminds me of Deuteronomy 6: "These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts . . Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads." Inspiring. Thank you.

    What a lovely gift. To have something someone has made especially for you and to know they were listening to the Father - what a blessing.
