As I looked at that painting, it reminded me of, well, me. It reminded me of all the times I am trying so hard to do better or help the family better or be a better wife and mother and I look inwards. Instead I should be looking to Him, the one who can truly make me better. The one who knows me so perfectly that He can improve me with just a mere question from me. If I just turn my focus to Him, I will have peace.
Sure, my questions might not be all answered. My situation might not improve. My life won't become perfect. But in looking to Him, I will find hope and happiness and an understanding. An understanding of who I am and why I am here and what my purpose is. I will be filled with peace. And all I have to do is turn.
This isn't the picture I was talking about, but it is the way I want to be. You can find more about what I believe here.

That sounds like an interesting picture... thanks for the analogy.
Laura, I'll take a picture of it one of these days!
