Dear David,
Much to my surprise, on Valentine's Day, my husband handed me a strange shaped FedEx box as he reminded me of his tradition to give me flowers on this holiday. Flowers? In that box? Baffled, I carefully opened the box finding, to my delight, one of your gorgeous prints . . . bright lavender and golden wildflowers bursting through the cracks in barren rock.
Just that morning, I had been asking the Lord to enable me to hope in Him even in the midst of life's unexpected "curve balls". Now, gazing at your artwork, the words of Psalm 40:1-3 whispered of God's faithful love in my life!
Today, the picture came back from the frame shop. It is breathtaking! We hung it right near our front entrance, where we will pass by every time we leave or enter our home. Daily, it will remind us of what God can do to bring life to our barren hearts, and of His hope in the midst of trials. So far, I can't walk past it without standing and gazing and thanking God for the hope we have in Him.
Thank you SO much for using your gifts to exalt our Savior.
