• Cloudy with a 100% chance of failure •
I have been reading ’ book, Becoming and Beholding. Apart from being absolutely gorgeous on the outside, the pages are overflowing with gems of insight, so very valuable for a reflective life! I was inspired to letter this phrase as a reminder to self after reading chapter 8: In Praise of Failure.
I won’t post spoilers here, but I highly recommend making this book a staple part of your personal library if you enjoy Ruth’s insights and writing style (I do, a lot!).

This is actually part of a slightly longer piece which I’m not done with yet, but I thought it was so cool to see some interesting effects emerge as I experimented with ways to create dimension in the letters. So much fun.

Today’s artwork is inspired by two things:
1. ’ incredible tutorial! Those 5 minutes taught me so much and helped me realise that I was going about some things in a very long winded and painful fashion. Well not anymore. This was such a joy to create! And still on very heavy rotation is the Halftone brush from ’s Rough and Raw set. It’s the absolute best for creating the texture I love.
1. This morning’s worship session. Being confined to home means no longer gathering on church on Sundays. It’s been about 9 weeks since we stopped out in-person services. That was the anchor of my week and I really miss that. Online services have been great, just not quite the same. But this morning’s worship was beautiful and this song about our Great Defender is sticking with me. How has your church at home experience been?

Daily life is the classroom where you learn to take your despondent, worry-filled, burden-laden existence and trade it in for another that’s worth living. Today was one of those days where this experience couldn’t be more real. Lord, help me keep my eyes and heart on the other life I would much rather be all about - that Spirit-abiding, joy-finding, fruit-bearing life lived in love.
“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.” ~ John 15:4 ESV
