Fruit
We all know fruit is healthy and we should eat several servings a day. Nowadays, we can buy it all year around. Sometimes it's a little more expensive than other times, because the weather didn't cooperate and the harvest was not that plentiful, or none at all. That doesn't mean we should stop eating or buying it. We know this too shall pass!
We all live by example and living according to the fruit of the Spirit is pleasing to God and we should do that constantly, each day. And we can do that all year around. Sometimes it's a little more difficult than other times, because the desired effect did not seem that plentiful, or none at all. That doesn't mean we should stop giving and living it. We know, this too shall pass! :-)
Matthew 12:33
Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.

Janice,

God's Grace.
Well, Corry, you've done it again. What a beautiful picture. You have a wonderful talent. They definitely look good enough to eat. Yummy!
Amy,
Thanks, but I am convinced it's the pot calling the kettle black! :-)
How are your Clouds coming along???
God's Grace.
Your post reminded me I needed to go to farmers market and get me some more tomatoes , apples , and bananas I'm fresh out ! I agree with growing a good fruit tree by keeping it fertilized with the Good Book and its direction ? Blessings. Ron.
Ron,
Yes, we need to keep the inner-man healthy and a good daily dose of God's word is essential!
Enjoy your trip to the market. God bless you.
God's Grace.
Corry,
This is my first visit here (came over from Amy's blog) and I am quite impressed with your drawings. You have been blessed, my dear!
I look forward to reading more of your thoughts :)
Christy,
Welcome and thanks for the sweet comment.
Yes, I have been blessed and am so grateful for it! God works in mysterious ways, doesn't He?! :-)
Please feel free to drop in anytime you like.
God's Grace.
Corry, I finished the boy's picture last week. It turned out pretty well.I am currently working on a lighthouse. I took some pictures last time we went to St. Marks (below Tallahassee). I am staying busy. What is it about this time of the year anyway? :) I hope you have a great day.
Amy,
Oh, I can't tell you how curious I am to see your drawing! I have no doubt it turned out very well.:-)
I have one portrait I will start soon. I just am so tired these last couple of days, I can't seem to get anything done but sleep. I guess it's needed then, huh?
I love the light-house idea for a drawing. I had considered a fishing-boat, myself. But... one of those medieval battle-ships with full sails has been on my mind as well. I think I will do both in due time, hehe.
Have a wonderful and very blessed day, dear sis.
God's Grace.
Fruits!
Glorious fruits!
Yeah! I love fruits very much.
They aren't fattening at all.
HeHe!
I love your drawing more, lieve zus =)
(((HUGS)))
Audrey,
Thanks, lieve zus.:-)
I am glad you like my drawing more and I don't mind you eating it. I think it's none-fattening. I am not quite sure about the taste though. Seems kinda bland to me. Want some lemonade to go with it??? grin.
(((HUGS)))
God's Grace.
Beautiful drawing, Corry! And I loved your post, you always have these great reminders that get me focused on my walk with the Lord for the day. :) You're such a blessing to me!
Sarah,
Lil' sis, it's crystal clear to me. You DEFINITELY have a bad case of "the pot calling the kettle black"!
You are both an encouragement and a blessing to me. :-)
I hope your day is filled with many blessings.
God's Grace.
Corry, I was looking at your picture of the fruit again. Do you use a kneaded eraser or a different kind to lighten the areas where your light shines. I have tried several different ones, and I am curious on which one you prefer. Thanks.
Amy,
I use two different forms of erasers and both are of the same material. One rectangular (STAEDTLER, Mars plastic, for paper and film, it says) for larger areas, and the same material eraser in pencil-form, for the fine and small areas. So far I have found this to be the best. It won't damage the paper in any way. However, depending on what # pencil you use, it may not always erase everything and you might still slightly see the previous line. But so far it works fine for me. What are your experiences?
BTW, if you like, you can always e-mail me at: ccsystems@bellsouth.net

You have a lot of talent! I love the way you use your drawing to bring out scripture.
Blessings,
Lori
Lori,
Thank you and welcome to my blog. :-)
I think it's more the other way around. I often use scripture to do a drawing. :-) There is always a verse that is applicable to anything in this life. Not surprising, knowing it's called The Book of Life! :-)
Have a blessed weekend, Lori!
God's Grace.
what a lovely drawing!
Pia,
Thanks girl, I so enjoyed doing this drawing. It also reminds me of the fruit of the spirit. :-)
Luv ya, girl.
God's Grace.
