GaryMo.com : Creatives vs. Artists

Wed, 16 Feb 2011 15:45:30 +0000

I was just at Re:create which is a gathering of creatives put together by Randy Elrod. I went feeling very out of place because I have not considered myself to be a "creative" for several years. I blogged about this very thing (and my subsequent change of mind and heart) at http://amandasims.posterous.com/i-thought-i-didnt... . I "used to be" an artist, before I let that part of me whither away. I'm currently on a journey of re-emergence in this area. My role in ministry may not implicitly indicate creativity, but I'm choosing to see it that way anyway. Thanks for this post, and for the confirmation of what is already going on in me.

I love that! I deal with that people-pleasing thing too. Ouch. My word is "surrender". I'm a little scared, I don't mind telling you! :)

SO beautiful. And Kota's response is an indication of how well you and Brent have raised him, too.

This morning I was registering my daughter for kindergarten and one of the teachers, who we've known since before Jadyn was born, was bragging about her to another staff member, beaming about how great my kid is. Uber-happy!

Anna Meadows Ministries : Confessions of a Food-aoholic

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:20:50 +0000

Thanks for sharing this, Anna. I am going through my own journey to freedom from food addiction. It has been a life-long struggle and this year it is my One Thing. I'm going through an interactive study called Setting Captives Free - The Lord's Table ( http://settingcaptivesfree.com ) and it's really opening my eyes to the fact that I have used food for so many things other than fuel! It has become such an idol in my life and I'm ready to be free from it! Thanks again for sharing, and I'm looking forward to hearing more!

I saw you tweet about that and I thought that was a very interesting concept - certainly breaks the year into bite-sized chunks. I may just check that out!

It was laid-back to the point of being boring. Just me, the hubs and kiddo. Cooked, ate, cleaned up and chilled. Kinda nice, actually, since the pace of my life normally is INSANE!
