I did a LIVE over on FB today while I worked on a painting. I shared about the tension I felt between being present as a mom and wanting to work on my business and create. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Just recently I decided that I was going to live in God’s grace and not feel like I always had to be “doing something” for my business. So in the days I’m home with my Little’s, Imma be with my Little’s. And on the days they are at preschool, I’ll be fully focused on creating and business. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ LIFE CHANGING! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But, you have really got to commit to not worrying and receiving Gods grace. It makes all the difference in the world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Any workin Mama’s relate? 🙋🏼‍♀️. How do you handle that tension? . . . #momprenuer #womeninspiringwomen #propelwomen
I don’t know if I ever shared the completed painting of this commissioned piece from a few months ago. ~ The client wanted to combine 2 different paintings of mine and then add a custom hand-lettered scripture and sheep that represented each of her children. It’s always such a special privilege when I get to be a tool to create something that brings joy and soul into a persons home. ~ Custom paintings make such special and unique gifts for your loved ones for Christmas. Message me if you’d like for me to create one for you or if you have any questions. . . . #decorcrushing #makehomematter #melissalewisart
Let me start by saying y’all need to jump on the @SarahJakesRoberts train. Girl can bring it!... I feel like God has really used these last few days to breath a new word in me. This year began with me coming out of a season where I felt just kinda lonely and oppressed. I began to feel new life and hope. I began to want more and believe there was more waiting for me. About halfway through the year God threw us for what I felt was like a major loop. I didn’t want to admit it (bc I’m supposed to be a good Christian and already know better) but I was frustrated and confused. Why would God bring us from something that he so obviously brought us to? Why did he allow that brook to run dry? What I’ve come to understand so clearly now is that He doesn’t do the same thing for us over and over again. When he wants to grow us he doesn’t use the same tool as he did before. When there is more waiting for us sometimes something new has to happen. Something we cant predict or imagine. Something or some way that only God, The Creator, could create. Watch out friends, because when you pray for more... man, not only does he bring the more but he brings the new. He creates a way only he can create. But to go that new way we have to leave the old way! And he is always always always growing you!
