2021 Home Photo Challenge 1-31-21

The Home Photo Challenge was fun for me last year. Since I do not think much is going to be changing for me in the way of travel this year, I am going to continue the challenge for myself into 2021. This year I am going to add a little twist. I will give a brief description of each photo I take and write a Haiku to go along with it.

The sunset off the porch of the Vicarage.

Light spills from corners.

The edges of things shimmer

As darkness gathers.

Blinding light tempers shadow

Creates true beauty.

The sunrise paint the sky pink across the street from the vicarage

Clouds rise like pink smoke.

Meanwhile, frozen landscapes greet

The morning sunbeams.

2021 At the Vicarage Week #4

Jan. 22nd– The week has been really busy with housework: cooking, cleaning and laundry…. I am realizing that I am allowing the pace of life to steal away from me the important moments of life’s beauty and once again I am struggling with the pull between being a human BEING and a human DOING…..I get lost in the work and forget the beauty…it makes me mad.

So today I decided to be proactive about being by giving space to some art work.I took my phone out when I walked the dogs to find a few pictures and then I gave myself time in the evening to photoshop them.

These are the results of my work. Tomorrow I might try sketching one of these.

Jan. 23rd– Well I never did get to sketching yesterday’s photos. But I did get more laundry done and the dishes and three meals for everyone and almost five hours before the throne of God. This has been a wonderful season of prayer and fasting. The fasting isn’t going so well but the prayer has been amazing.

Here is today’s prayer point….

Jan. 24th– Today was church…..

Jan. 25th– I finished a video Bible study called “Thriving In Babylon today.” It is a powerful word about how to live your faith out in a culture that is increasingly oppositional to it. Here are some thoughts from it.

Jan 26th- Today was my first staff meeting since before Christmas! It was nice to see everyone even if it was by Zoom. Soon and very soon we will have the vaccine and be able to be in the same room!

May be an image of 5 people and people smiling

Jan. 27th– Today was day 18 of our 21 days of fasting and prayer. It was also our evening of prayer at the wall prayer meeting. Pastor Dan shared from Acts chapter 16…..I am two days away from being out of quarantine and am looking with some trepidation to being “back to normal”. I have enjoyed this time of seclusion to pray. I don’t know maybe this is what is normal for me.

Jan. 28th– Today has been a day of family conversations. I got to speak with Melanie and Joe and Kristine for some time today. It was wonderful. Joe and Kristine have just crossed their first anniversary and today they told me they have bought enough land for a house in the Philippines! I am so excited for them!

Melanie and James are still adjusting to having two little ones in the house and their near sleepless schedule.

No description available.
I think the girls are getting more rest than they are!

It’s snowing at the Vicarage!

Snow from my window

Recanvases with crystal

Unpaints the wide world.
