“I belong” Trees . . . watercolor & ink

Suzie's "I belong" tree in Doris Huntoon's woodsThis week our theme for creative journaling is “I BELONG”. It is a part of the Creation Connection with

God :: Others :: Myself :: Nature

On Monday we sat out in Doris Huntoon’s woods and enjoyed God time there. I started this watercolor painting there as I enjoyed the details of God’s creation. I love the way everything is connected. Today I made the final connections to this piece of God’s art expressed in and through me. I added the pen & ink . . . my first time like this. Connecting the different shapes and textures. Thanks God for an awesome creation connection!

Ice Cream scooping at ClarksAmerican Ice Cream Experienced! Our orientation today included sharing our journeys, prayer, worship, eating, and ended with a car tour of Marlette (because of the rain). We popped into various stores and businesses to “show off” the group, let them meet “real Marlettians” and get the feel of our community. We ended at Clarks for ice cream, even though it was a cold & wet day.

We are excited at how well we connected today, and thankful to God for the group He has put together. Our prayer is that we will be able to give and receive (all of us) during this season God has put us together!
