Christmas Season 2011

A very merry Christmas season to all my blog readers! Here's the latest effort with my new camera, and with my computer editing...

By the way, I only have ONE more gift to go shopping for! Yippee! Finally, one year my shopping is done early!

Welcome To My Blog!

Hello! My blog is a creative outlet for me - I love beautiful pictures and photographs, inspirational thoughts, interesting stories, and great writing. Sometimes I post about current events or issues that are important to me. (Once in a while I will really treat this AS a blog- a "weblog" or online journal of my life...) The 'Grace' part is about what is good in my life, and the 'Pearls' part is about the gritty stuff! But it is all working together to become a thing of beauty! (from the Bible - "all things work together for good...") I love being surrounded by beauty, and hope to bring a bit of beauty to those who may visit my little corner of Blogland! I freely admit that I am more of a follower than a leader, and most of the writings I share are Someone Else's genius- and I always give credit where credit is due. Enjoy my little collection and please leave a comment before you travel on down the www!

No Fear

I love the portrayal of King Theoden in The Lord of The Rings. It inspires me to be a "valiant warrior" in the battle against the darkness of this world. "Arise, Riders! Forth! and fear no darkness! Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered. A sword day- a red day- Ride now! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! Forth! " Link this with this passage from the Bible, "Stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, AND IN NOTHING TERRIFIED BY YOUR ADVERSARIES, which is an evident token of salvation of God." Philippians 1:27,28 (I love it when King Theoden answers the one who says they can not possibly win against the might of Mordor, "But We Will Meet Them In Battle Nonetheless.")
