I was feeling very lonely today and had a really low point during the day. After awhile I started to work on a new watercolor piece and I noticed that my negative feelings went away. I also listened to a webinar while painting, so I kept my mind off of those bad thoughts. It reminded me that I was dwelling on some bad thoughts and weeds and they were keeping me down in the dumps, but once I was working on something and listening to something else, I no longer focused on those negative thoughts. It almost seems too simple and logical, but maybe that's why it's so easy to miss.

This is one of my favorite verses:
Philippians 4:8

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, THINK on these things.

Wow Christine!

Sounds like your getting right at those roots and replacing them quickly

Would love to see yr paintings if you care to share I like to paint myself. I have been painting in acrylics cause oils are a bit too expensive for me. I have tried watercolor, but i like the clumpy paint more for some reason. Maybe ill give it another go some day I like to play deep worship music when i paint, its called "soaking music" . Realy gets my creative juices flowing.

You are doing awesome sis.

God bless n keep ya

Thanks, Jill!

Sometime I'll try to post some pics of my watercolors. I have worked in oils and acrylics but my favorite is watercolors. It can be so relaxing. I like to listen to music while I work and then sometimes I like it to be quiet. What worship music do you listen to when you paint?

God bless
