Our Company is a Christian business, and we feel that God
is the One to be glorified for anything that we can do.
God deserves all of the
credit for anything I can do because, "Without Him, I can
do nothing." (John 15:5).
I also
appreciate the
advice of my
husband and children when drawing or finishing the designs
here.
Favorite
activities of mine are reading the Bible, spending time with my family,
drawing, growing flowers, and enjoying the goodness of God.
Thank you for
your visit.

"Corot, the great landscape painter once
said, "When I find myself in one of Nature's beautiful places, I grow
angry with my pictures." Pleased with them in his studio, the artist was
humbled in the sight of Nature's glory. Judging ourselves in the light of
the world, we may easily find grounds for personal satisfaction, but to
judge ourselves in the light of the Lord, to measure ourselves by the
divine standard, is to put our pride to shame." (By Choice Gleanings)
I give the credit to the Lord for helping me to draw and
design, as my work is imperfect and His is perfect. He is the Master
Designer- painting the
beautiful sunsets, perfuming the gorgeous roses, and creating the
child carried by his mother.
He is also merciful to mankind.
God's perfect gift to redeem man from his sin nature was
His Son, Jesus Christ- Holy and without sin, to die on a cross to bear
the sins of a people like us.
In God's Word, the Bible, it says,
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have eternal
life." (John 3:16).
Only through our faith
in His Son Jesus can we be saved from our sin nature that we
inherited from Adam and Eve. The penalty and curse for that is death
in our sins, which awaits all of us without a Savior.
What God's Son, Jesus, did perfectly satisfied
the sin requirements of a Holy God, and nothing that we can do
ourselves can make us clean enough to be in God's presence.
To know Jesus as your Savior means that you have
peace with God once and for all, and the wonderful promises of God
that are found in the Bible are yours
for eternity.
With salvation through
Jesus Christ, you never have to fear death, nor the penalty of
being judged for your sins. At Judgment Day, you will have a
Redeemer who says, "I paid for this one with my blood."
You will receive in this life a Friend who loves
you like no other, and you will know true peace and the meaning of life- that we are
created to have fellowship with Him. Nothing else in this world can
satisfy the human heart, but a meaningful relationship with God
through His Son Jesus Christ.
Each of us are given today, but not one of us knows if we have
tomorrow. If you die tonight, will you be in Hell for your sins, or
be in Heaven because you have a Redeemer in Jesus Christ?
Hell is a tormented place of great suffering for those who have
refused Jesus Christ in this life. In Luke 16:19-31, the rich man
who died asked God to "send Lazurus, that he may dip the tip of his
finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this
flame."
In beautiful contrast, Heaven is a restful place of no sorrow or
suffering, where Jesus is glorified as King of Kings and Lord of
Lords.
Revelation 21:3 says, "And I heard a loud voice from Heaven, saying,
"Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with
them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them
and be their God."
