New Website Exciting Stuff!

For many, many years, our family had a music ministry called Land of Harvest, and had a website to go with it.

But the kids grew up, and even though they all are serving in song at their own churches, we don't really need a website about our music any more. So very soon, landofharvest.com is going away.



It is sort of sad because of all the memories and songs written that will probably be forgotten, but I really need to move forward and have a site about my art and illustration. It has been kind of hard for potential authors to find me on that old website, so here it is time to have a website in MY NAME!

I have been thinking about doing this for a long time, making this change. Change is hard, but it sure can be good. One thing I have hoped to never do in life is be stagnant. I want my art to get better, progress to new ideas and ability to use mediums and tools. I taught myself how to illustrate on photoshop many years ago, because working digitally became an important skill with all the revising, etc. I want to keep up to date as best I can with being tech savy enough so that I can function well! I taught myself how to write a book and upload it to amazon KDP and publish it. That was quite a project! But now I can do it for other authors!

I also want to grow, and be changed in my walk with the Lord. I have been stagnant in the past, and it always starts out innocently. I start to think things are good. I am doing well. So I fill my life with stuff and neglect time with the Lord. Next thing I know, I am grumpy and empty. I described it in a song once, "Can't put my finger on it, I've tried a hundred times to, fill up the void inside.

It's like a thirst and I just can't quench it, searching for something that I haven't tried.

In a whisper comes a melody that I already knew...

It turns out I'm just longing for You.

I'm longing for YOU Jesus! Only You..."

When I finally realize the thing that is missing is His presence, and my obediently coming to Him in prayer and His Word, then that stagnant mess is changed in to a fresh pool of hope and purpose.

Phil.3:14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

So He keeps making me new, and I keep pressing on, to learn, to grow, and to be used of Him in new ways with new ideas. It is super exciting!
