Ponderings1 Comment on Deep calls

Deep calls to deep in the sound of your waterfalls. ~Ps 42.7 In a public speaking class that I took during seminary, we had a 7-minute assignment. We chose between two prompts to write a speech we would then present to the class. The prompts were: 1. write your own obituary; and 2. try to…

Perfect Timing

Ponderings3 Comments on Perfect Timing

Call it timing, fate, the universe, providence… Whatever you call it sometimes things turn out differently than you plan. For years, I have thought about starting this blog.

About this site

I want to be filled with awe and wonder! My art reflects the wonder I find daily as I wander.

This site invites you to experience awe and wonder daily. Awe is the awareness of a glory that surpasses our own being. Wonder is the astonishment we feel when we encounter the Great Ineffable Mystery. Wonder leads us to reverence as we recognize that there is meaning and purpose infinitely greater than ourselves. The stories are from my experiences as I navigate though this life. The photos and art are to inspire you to wander through your own places in search of wonder.
