I signed my painting today and included a couple of photos for your perusal. I hope you like it.  And since it is the ninth of Av, I thought I would share a few thoughts on the subject. The ninth of Av is one of the most devastating and terrible days in historical data. From the beginning of time, the evil one continues to try and destroy God's people. Those who chose Him as their God and His son, their Messiah. Jesus Christ came to give us the freedom that we are unable to achieve on our own. Jealousy is what the evil one indwelled from the beginning. What we can rely on is that the evil one will be held accountable for all things done in jealousy. Jealousy is a strong emotion that can send people into the same downward spiral that the Lord said He witnessed when the evil one was thrown down from heaven.  And He said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." Luke 10:18 So, my advice, guard your heart from jealousy which gives the evil one access into your l...

  While we celebrate our nation’s birth, remember that all freedoms listed in our Constitution was first found in the Bible. The words of God set the first words among our people and freedom was created for our nation. These freedoms are self-evident, that all people are free and share in this freedom. Together we can make our nation better. Let the bitter fight among themselves while we share the Word and carry Peace to all. And Jesus will lead us in our endeavor. Have a safe and happy 4th of July! © 2021 Laveda D. Rockford

  My Cup Runneth Over, an oil painting   This is the actual video that I tried to post last week. This video shows me completing this oil painting and shows you a little more about it. Please pay no attention to my hair that is hanging down the back of my head. I live in the country, and I did not notice that my long hair was not all up. It looks kind of weird because the ends of my hair are a little lighter than the hair coming from my scalp. A natural occurrence, I do not color my hair.   Why do I always feel as if I need to explain myself? Because if I do not, someone always reads into it something that I did not intend.   Please say a prayer for the people in Florida. The devastating situation that happened to the people who live in that condominium building is sad! My heart and prayers are for all those affected!   Laveda D.

JUST A BUNCH OF ROSES | Laveda D. Rockford Our weather in southern Missouri has been quite cold for spring, but the last couple of days have been bright and beautiful. We finally reached eighty degrees and it has me looking through the flower garden for blooms. Not many have bloomed but some wildflowers in the field and a few daylilies. And that is not as lush as I would like it to be. But the dependable roses and their first set of flowers are always so cute and delicate. Here are a few photos of the pink roses, plentiful with the promise of more… I am looking forward to summer and more blooms to surprise you with. I hope to finish my painting soon and when I do, I will post a photo of it like I always do. God bless and have a blessed weekend. Love ya, Laveda D. Rockford © 2021 Laveda D. Rockford
