So often I think about God being the artist who created nature and the world around us. I forget that He is still creating what He wants in me.

It was only about 1 1/2- 2 feet down in certain places. It drives my parents nuts with gardening, but for the kids it was pretty cool! :) Hwindeler@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12247448036229895173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1743286631120811156.post-29447138273515045732012-08-16T14:46:30.224-04:002012-08-16T14:46:30.224-04:00Beautiful post, Heather!

I have to confess to you--I was shocked you reached clay. all I ever reached as a kid was rock. hard limestone, etc... ;) <br /><br />"But when my eyes are on my God, then everything changes." so true. Isn't it amazing how all else fades when we are focused on Him? Even my imperfections. What grace! <br /><br />Nikki @ Simplystrivinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16891561307493846149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1743286631120811156.post-46751408973380644522012-08-15T23:20:26.186-04:002012-08-15T23:20:26.186-04:00I love this post!

The more we do it, or make our efforts to start with our focus on Him and His power, love, and grace it becomes easier! (Some weeks I am better at this than others.) I am just in awe at how He is our constant supply!

I used to and still do at times, focus on myself more than God and that's when my feet beging to fall beneath the water like Peter. But the older I get, the more I stay above water because my confidence now is in HIM, not me. Yes, He is magnificant! And with the right kind of confidence, yes, the possibilities are endless. Kind of exciting :) Hallelujah! <br />Kristin Bridgmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09020084825858319693noreply@blogger.com
