Navy Accent Wall

Ali, your wish is my command. :)

Is it perfect?  No.  Was it worth painting it?  Yep.  Go get yourself an accent wall.

Resting

Take the time to watch darkness fade with the rising of the sun.

Get uncontrollably excited about Cobb Salad and homemade blue cheese dressing.

And rest in the knowledge that even though your schedule is still jam packed in the summer, even though there's never enough time in the day, and even though that thing you're pursuing just isn't as satisfying as you thought it would be, God is constant; in Him is true rest.  He is the Creator--the Artist of colors and streaks and light, the Artist of flavors and texture and fullness. 

And he created you.  He delights in you.

"You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you."

St. Augustine
