Exploring the Possibilites

As B and I imagine the coming year, we are trying to keep mindful of the fact that Jesus said that he came so that his 'sheep' could have life and have it abundantly. Since the largest part of our identity is found in being a follower of Jesus then we should live an abundant life. In the recent past at times our lives have felt overwhelming...full of duty rather than passion...so we are trying to find what we have been missing and bring it out again.


In this process, the high school art teacher left. Since B has a lighter teaching load, he offered to take one class. Honestly, the grade 10s had a good giggle at the thought of their Religious Studies teacher being able to show them anything in the realm of fine arts. Now, those of you who have known B for a long time, you know that he has some talent. So as the faithful wife I thought I'd brag on his behalf...


This is a sketch that B drew from a photo that he took years ago when we drove through Ladakh. This man is a Tibetan yak herding Nomad. We came across a small group of yak herders while we drove up to Leh. They stopped us on the way and we had a little visit.


In case you thought I had any hidden talents of this sort...sorry to disappoint...

That's a great sketch! I'd say he's qualified to teach an art course.
