It's a NEW Day

"Behold I am doing a new thing, do you not perceive it?" 
-Isaiah 43


Did any of these people from the Bible/History plan the powerful ways they would impact the world?

Esther.   Martin Luther King.  Abraham Lincoln.  Mary Mother of Jesus.  David.  Ghandi.  Mother Theresa.

No.

There are also many names and stories of peoples live's who impacted our world that we will never know.

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded You. Behold I am with you always, even to the end of the age. 
-Matthew 28, The Great Commission.

<><

Your greatest purpose is to Love and Worship God and make disciples, but I wonder how else He will use your life for Him?


The famous woodblock print featured below is called, "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".



When a surfer is getting ready to be carried up by a wave they sit and wait. But they know it is coming.

That's how I feel right now like I've been waiting just now God is causing the water to begin to rise.

Here is a poem I wrote about it:


Take me Wave

my fingers inch deep in You Ocean
i feel the rush of purple notions come to me
as bubbles between my toes

lightly the Wind blows
and i breathe Him in
His salty flavor 
invigorating my mind for adventure

like the waking of a sleeping volcano
or spring aching to feel the melt of a winter morning
I 
am suddenly aware a change is coming

right
now

Here is the Navy Wave with His white uncontrollable laughter
I feel Him with me as He lifts us up and we are floating
on a wall of water 
gravity's pull cannot slow us down now

not now

Closer to the Sun than ever
My hair feels like feathers 
light on my back
Oh the complete freedom I have

I see my skin brown
against Your blue
I feel beautiful with You.

Something new is here for the life of Soulspeak and I am excited.
It's still God, Giving, and Creating.
More to come……..

Beauty and Time.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. 
Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. -Ecclesiastes 3:11


How mysterious are you Lord, how Deep and Rich and Beautiful.




Right now for Soulspeak i see a lot of shapes and whisps, dreams hopes and ideas floating around me. Puzzle Pieces. you know the visual. Some of those pieces are meant for now and some are meant for later and some are meant for much later. 
I love God who is spontaneously sincere in His actions, His perfect timing. How does He manage that? It's a mystery. It's all so amazing how He inspires; to use what might be a strange word to you, impregnates ideas in us. Then we wait for their birth. We know they are coming and they will be beautiful and they will grow.

WE HAD A BEAUTIFUL JOy-FillED DAY!

<3

Somewhere between sleep and coffee with friends, being found by Jesus Christ and scouring the words of the Bible for His voice, i have heard He is going to do abundantly beyond what i can ask or imagine and this truth is not only for me, it's for you! What's your soul saying? 



And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.-Philippians 1:6

with love and belief,

Soulspeak Travels Begin


My Dear Gorgeous Guatemalan Friend Ade 
invited me to her sweet arty loft in the City!

                                                                        
Over some water, candy corn, and excited chatter she tells me about this AmaZING fabric outlet and says, let's go...NOW! So we took off down the block and this place... this place :)  


Room after room after room...


Bins of Belt Buckles... sigh


this is JUST the entrance


a Giant bag of Shoulder Pads haha!


Rainbows of Ribbon

                                                                      

Pitter Patter :)


The Lord just D*aZ*ZL*ED *** my Eyes and Soul 
with His surprises that day. 
Right there was a glimpse of Ephesians 3:20-21 
 as i walked from room to room level to level laughing.
*
*
Then as if that wasn't enough when we left....
guess who we got to take a photo with:


They gave us cards with Mother Teresa's face on them as they said hopefully one of you will become a sister one day, 
Ade said we are already sisters in Christ :)


We finished off the day with an adventure to Thailand, 
fantastic.


with love and lots of veggies stirrin in the curry,

Bread to the Eater


One of my earlier posts was called Cast your Bread. I find it so awesome that God has now brought me into the path of this scripture. God is so faithful to me through every season to send the Rain, send the Sun, prune Vines, cause Growth, and furnish me with the BREAD i need.  
He accomplishes this.
***

He is definitely blessing SOULSPEAK  which i'll highlight below with pics, but I also have to say that He is blessing my hungry Soul with His Bread by helping me see more of who He is. If you doubt that God will do what He says He will do or you may wonder if He thinks of you at all...
 Let Him speak to your SOUL here:

So will My Word be which goes forth from My mouth;
It WILL NOT return to Me empty,
Without accomplishing what I desire
And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
Isaiah 55:11
***


Below is a little snapshot of a couple of the packages I've gotten to send out over the past weeks with SOULSPEAK goodies inside. 



One of may favorite photos used to advertise a 
SOULSPEAK Birdie feather extension.
GOD is the MASTER ARTIST. Check out the feather!

Here is a sneak peek of the SOULSPEAK Studio.

ENJOY some SOULSPEAK with God today <3 S.S.<><

The Creative Process Part 1

In college our professors talked about the Creative Process a lot. 
At that time i didn't really get what they meant. i feel like i got a nibble of it, but barely a bite. 
Now as i am experimenting with different media and pursuing excellence for you myself and for God in a business type arena i am getting a richer bite :)


Things i am learning:


1. I nearly never make something "perfect" the first time.


2. There's a crazy balance between working like a little Thomas Edison or Albert Einsten to INVENT and making sure you still eat, sleep, pray, and talk to people. haha i'm serious.


3. It's important to balance sPonTanEity with plannedness. 


A few ARTY bites for you to chew on :)
Lastly, i want to say:


I feel free when i make art because i feel like the "mistakes" i make aren't ever big and maybe are not mistakes at all. 






Let your Soulspeak!
