Apples

This project is a little out of the ordinary for me.  It is based on a sign project that I did for an apple orchard, in north Alabama.  The size is 24x36 inches and is oil on canvas.

Rest in Peace Dakota

Rest in peace girly-girl.  You were the sweetest most gentle dog ever.  God gave us to you to fill a big hole in our hearts.  You did that and more.  Your life was cut much too short and you will be missed.  Thank you God for our time together.

Joy in Jesus

There's power in the name,
even by myself, I am not alone,
maybe just a little lame,
but with joy in Jesus, my bone
will not break.
Even though I did not cry,
my freedom they did take,
with joy in Jesus I will not die.
He is my heavenly cake.
I had no control
over the national boss.
My security  he stole,
my insurance was a loss.
Jesus sits on high,
joy to him on the right,
as I give a thankful sigh
Because he has me in sight.
Joy joy joy in Jesus,
I do not complain
he is a physician to us.
Even though I am in pain,
my body does ache,
with doubt in my mind.
This with a touch he can break
And joy in Jesus, I will find.
As he heals my soul
and gives me joy unspeakable,
not a lump of coal
but happiness that is indescribable.
