Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Genesis 1:1-4
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

This episode is about making art and sharing it without social media. If you want to take a break from social media you can still share your art in other ways and grow with the artists around you
Sidequest
Give an artist or creative friend a call and talk about art together
Love you
✌️
We are back talking about traditional art, crafting, and how we can find creative sparks in our art and in our life.
I’m like that dude on the journey who’s like hey here’s a quest if you want to do it well here it is…
Sidequest, If it’s been a while since you’ve drawn in a sketchbook, or written or made music.
Set aside 5 minutes and just start without expectations or having to meet any bar that any has set:
Have fun with it. Doodle and Dabble!
Love you all see you later! ✌️
The shortest episode
A glimpse into the mystical world of Anthem

A little snippet thought about belonging. I think true belonging is not just fitting in, is being accepted and loved for who you are
