Being a "big girl" with my own office now, I have decided that it needed a few extra decorations. (My only wall decor was a map of DuPage county and surrounding areas as well as a picture of a little girl praying...not quite along the lines of "chic.") So, I painted this little pic to make it a little more "homey." The verse is Isaiah 61:3--"to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning and a garment of praise instead of the spirit of despair."

This is my theme for my clients. They come in with some pretty tough circumstances and are faced with very trying decisions. I pray that God is able to take their difficult situation and make it into something beautiful. And I would love to see some of them come to Him through the process.
