welcome back, i just wanted to tell you of a project that i made for a friend of mine, as you know the flying dove project has a spiritual meaning to me.. i had a friend had cancer and she requested that three of us come see her, at this point she was sent home knowing all to well that it wouldnt be long that our friend would not be with us. i wanted to give her something, not knowing what to bring i looked at that dove and decided to make a mini one, which i did in about 2 hours, i put it in a jewelery box and put my favorite bible verse along with it. and gave it to her, she knew that i did wood carvings, and she had one of my santas from years ago sitting on a shelf as i enter her home, she loved christmas, so the santa was displayed, year round, and it was june. the verse was fitting from isaiah 54.10
reads , for the mountions shall depart , and the hills be removed , my kindness shall not depart from you ,nor shall my covenant of peace, say the lord God that has mercy on you.
for once i felt that the gift was a bit of hope that the dove represents, and the peace that passes all understanding, what can i give? God gave us talents to help those around if only for a brief moment. ......she will be missed by many .
