"Lean not on your own understanding...."

Just to catch up from yesterday. The morning began a little rough when I felt a little icky and had to lay down and sleep for a little while. This was not such a bad idea it turned out though because sleeping for and hour and a half gave me lots of energy for the afternoon and evening. After I woke up I needed to do some grocery shopping then I came back and went straight to work. Due to this, I currently I have 4 paintings going simultaneously. I began another yesterday while trying to finish one that I'm doing for trade of my website. Thanks to Transformed Designs the company of my friends Elias and Danielle I have a site that features my work of my last show. Which then leads me to say, I spent some really quality time online researching different art endeavors to apply for. I stumbled upon a site, http://www.sandiegovisualarts.net, I have been to it many times and realized I was not a registered artist. So I registered....I continued looking around sent e-mails to people I thought might be interested in my art or I might be interested in applying to be a part of showing my art to, ect., ect.. Wasted a few moments on Facebook connecting with people (but I guess connecting with people is never really a waste of time) and logged off after about an hour or more. The afternoon continued with painting, then greeting Casey as he came home, and getting dinner ready, taking Case to softball practice, running to Target and all the regular stuff that happens from day-to-day. Ok and if I'm being boring, here's the good part. I received this e-mail from a SDVAN (San Diego Visual Arts Network) coordinator who said she saw that I registered as an artist, went to my website and loved what she saw, namely my fogged cowboy boots. She then invited me to an info session detailing a project that seeks to connect the art and fashion industry in San Diego with the intentions of helping under privileged teens. Wawa wee wah!!! Super cool! Wherever this goes, to be complimented and asked to send images of the work was really nice. Check out the website about the "Art Meets Fashion" project: http://www.artmeetsfashion.org. Anyway, to follow up on the title of this post God gave me a verse yesterday to help me see how I must trust Him and listen to hear His will for my life and not my own. Thanks Jesus! I do trust You and want Your will for my life because I know I can make the best and biggest impact possible when I search for your will.
