Chain Links

Set of 4 Chain Link art prints – click image for details

Chris Tomlin is one of my favorite musicians. This set of prints reminds me of this song.

“Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)”

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I’m found
Was blind, but now I see
‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing graceThe Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures[2x]
My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace

Falling Leaves

“Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.”~Albert Camus

Return of the Crocus!

“All Nature seems at work.  Slugs leave their lair
The bees are stirring, birds are on the wing,
And Winter slumbering in the open air,
Wears on his smiling face a dream of spring.”
-   Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Almost overnight, the crocus reappeared, dressing my wintery backyard in shades of purple. In a couple of blinks, Spring will be here. I’m ready – aren’t you?

Mountain Stream

You placed the earth on its foundations. 
      It can never be moved. 
 You covered it with the oceans like a blanket. 
      The waters covered the mountains. 
 But you commanded the waters, and they ran away. 
      At the sound of your thunder they rushed off. 
 They flowed down the mountains. 
      They went into the valleys. 
      They went to the place you appointed for them. 

             – Psalm 104:5-8 (New International Reader’s Version)
