Standing Alone and Proud

Art project

I would love this cute little art project! Making the little houses and painting them great colors!

Living Free

What do you think life looks like for the person who lives in this room?

More than Sand

How precious are your thoughts about me O God. They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up you are still with me!

- Psalm 139: 17-18

Safe Place

At this moment your life is a bruised reed and I will not crush it, a smoldering wick and I will not quench it. You are in a safe place.

- Brennan Manning in Abba's Child. From Isaiah 53:3

Deepest fears

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyound measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We are ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

- Nelson Mandella
