Recently, during a challenging chapter, I started to search for words of inspiration.
Food for my soul, and oxygen for my spirit.
I have been sharing what I have found with you.
Adversity creates the prelude to finding
our beautiful secrets that lie within.
Whenever I am pressed, I find beauty.
in darkness with faith,
In the middle of adversity if I dare to dream.
If I allow myself to seek God's wisdom in the power of His word
and that of others who have traveled down the same road.
A secret garden of words of inspiration that lift me up, and I hope they lift you up too.
Because my wish for you is be blessed every day,
and more than anything My wish for you is that life becomes all that you want it too...
Today is texture tuesdays with Kim Klassen. This week's challenge is WORDS. I used Kim's lovely Not Too Shabby texture on many of my images today. 
exture Tuesdays...If you click on a photo, from this post, you can see which textures I used on which photos.
The song for this post is My Wish
