Are you grumbling? Are you finding that joy is lacking in your life? It is so easy to get distracted with ourselves, I've had it sneak up and rear it's ugly head with me and surely you have experienced it in your life too. Nancy Leigh Demoss of Revive Our Hearts gives us a great reminder: "Gratitude is the overflow of a humble heart, just as surely as an ungrateful, complaining spirit flows out of a proud heart. Proud people are wrapped up in themselves. If people or circumstances don’t please or suit them, they are prone to whine or become resentful. A humble person thinks much of God and others and little of himself. He recognizes that anything he has is better than he deserves. He doesn’t feel anyone owes him anything. He doesn’t feel entitled to have more, or for life to be easy, or for everyone to love him and treat him well. He’s grateful for the least little kindness that’s extended to him, knowing it’s more than he deserves. Make a list of anything you can recall “whining” about recently. How does your complaining manifest a spirit of pride, entitlement, and expectations? Then take time to sit quietly before the Lord. Confess any pride that has shown itself in complaining, irritability, anger, or resentment, rather than giving of thanks. Humbly tell Him that you don’t deserve any of His favor, and give Him thanks for any specific recent blessings He brings to mind." She shares this here: Growing in Gratitude: A Thirty Day Challenge I highly recommend it!

This amazing painting (by Rosa Bonheur, who was one of France's most famous 19th century painters) hangs in the lobby of my daughter's school among other, lesser, paintings of clowns and kittens. No one pays much attention to this small miracle of a painting. Bonheur is most famous for her horse paintings, but I actually prefer this touching portrait to her larger works.

Le avide api l'hanno visitata sino a ieri, ma è ancora così dolce che fa tremare. E' un ritratto di te a trent'anni, un po' smemorata, come tu sarai allora.
Rosemaling is the term used for the style of decorative painting done in Norway. It emerged in about 1750 in the lowlands of Norway. It was the Norwegian interpretation of Baroque and Rococo style painting. Different styles were developed in different regions of Norway. Many of these styles are represented in the works of art that decorate the businesses and homes in Petersburg. The local rosemaling group, the Muskeg Maliers, are the artists responsible for these lovely pieces of rosemaling. First Bank has Hallingdal style Rosemaling. This style is characterized by the symmetrical scrolls and acanthus leaves wrapped around a central flower. The Harbor Bar's door also uses this style. The Telemark style is characterized by asymmetrical scrolls, leaves and flowers branching from a root center. Samples of the Telemark style can be found on the Icicle Seafoods bunk houses. The sign for Liz Peterson's Salon. The No Smoking signs at the Scandia House Hotel The parking sign at the local hardware store, Hammer and Wikan. Lee's Clothing The Enge building on Sing Lee Alley Flowers are central in the Rogaland style. Symetrical tulips, roses and other 4 and 6 petal flowers with teardrops, dots and crosshatching are present in this design. Samples of this style can be found on the Lille Hammer and Wikan Convenience Store.
