Well, I have enough faves accumulated for 3 more features, but in light of the Kmart store I've worked at 5-1/2 years closing in mid-December. I'm going to take a break from DA for awhile--I'm turning off my Watch spigot but I'll still check my messages periodically. I'm also nearly at 50,000 pageviews and should be doing something special, but I'm not able to now--I will, just note me with a screenshot if you get the 50,000th pageviews, and I'll send you something special by mail or email.  Also, it's fall, which tends to be beautiful in Santa Fe, so I really should be spending more spare time outside rather than buried in my phone or at the library. Falling Into Fall Emote  Okay, that's the update, here's where I tell you something inspiring and happy. Did you blink?  Oh no, you missed it! Here are the pics, then!  As always, much love to you my watchers and fellow artists, and be extra kind to one another! -Debra :heart: :floating: :rose:

Saturation Point

16 min read
The saturation point of something (defined) is the point at which the greatest possible amount of a substance has been absorbed; it's also the limit beyond which something can no longer be continued, endured, etc.  As an American, there are numerous issues on which I hope the public has reached the saturation point, and finds more of the same action or inaction unacceptable. The good news, however, is that there is never a saturation point for too much good news, gorgeous photographs and art, or superb writing! So I present as a rest for the eyes and spirit these great works by your fellow DeviantArt-ists~I hope you'll give them much deserved appreciation and encouragement! Love in Christ, and as always, be kind to one another! :heart::floating::rose:

Poetry: YouInventedMe and wordturner

  your light pours out (immutable)and if I
have not
told you
you are
beautiful
(in those words)
it is because I
can not
take my
eyes
off your
insides
can not
stop
my constant
comments
on
the wonders
there
beneath your skin
  Weak for WeaknessHe has a weakness:
Obsessed with meekness,
He wants his will worked through man.
They make great mistakes,
Disasters, heartbreaks;
Still nothing can thwart His plan.
  looking upso they say
some rain must fall
tell the clouds
not to stall
looking up
seeds to sow
forget silver linings
give me the rainbow

While the real world waits for miracles--that the urgent efforts of determined people of faith and love, may overcome the destructive power of hatred and greed, we draw inspiration from beautiful images of nature, fantasy, history, and poetic writing. I am pleased to share these wonderful works, the excellent music of Blackmill, and hope they will brighten your day. With love always to my DA friends and watchers, thank you again! -Debra :rose:

God is never in a hurry- God waits,waits and waits The enemy, the tempter, is restless1 and  always in a hurry.
God is never in a hurry2. God is Mercifully Patient3 and waits longingly4.

1. To devour the souls; he is restless to break our faith relationship with God (especially in difficult circumstances);  seeking every moment and every opportunity to make the weak souls fall into sin. He hurries to build anxiety and zeal in one's heart to pursue worldly success and happiness— and keep them rooted in worldly vanity.
2. To punish our guilt and make an end of wickedness.
3. Waiting for each soul to repent and return to HIM with Faith and Humility.
4. God understands the weakness of human flesh. HE gives sufficient time to make an amendment of sinful life.
 <da:thumb id="796666321"/>  Shiphrah and Puah: Breaking the LawI would love to
be an upstanding citizen,
do what the law says.
Usually, I do.
I would love to
submit to authority,
obey my rulers.
Usually, I do.
But I cannot, now.
For how can I obey
the laws of man
if they would have me break
the Law of God?
Don't you see
the death all around you?
No - you only see the law.
Don't you hear
the piercing cries of bereft mothers?
No - you only hear the law.
Don't you care
for the vulnerable trampled underfoot?
No - you only care about the law.
How
can you value something dead
above pulsing, screaming life?
How
can you expect me,
a servant of life
to obey the rule of death?
Sorry.
No.
I don't care anymore.
Take me.
Put me behind bars if you will.
Do what you like.
But don't speak to me
about your laws
when lives are at stake.
Don't expect me
to do what is wrong
just because it's the law.
For how can I obey
the laws of man
if they would have me break
the Law of God?
I will resist.
I will tell lies.
I will disobey.
I will fight.
And you may look on
in horr
  to remind the worldbehold our garden
desolate and untended
that once stood proud
virtue defended
with words meaningful
in truth a delight
before the storms
fierce long night
left no stone
nor colors grace
to remind the world
creations face
so all suffer this loss
and birthing pain
that a child may speak
life
to us again

This feature was supposed to be a commentary on America's Independence Day, climate change, and related, but words failed to sum up what I feel inside, so I'll let these pictures do my telling. Each of these wonderful artists and poets deserves your attention, and I hope you'll check out the great song at the end. With love and prayers always, my dear friends! -Debra :heart: :floating: :rose:

 It's alright to not know which direction you're going to head until you start off, to take the path less traveled, find by doing what you love to do, and what isn't worth your time. Some of the best things are learned by wandering, and as said by Bilbo in Lord of the Rings, "Not all who wander are lost."  We also learn empathy by daring to carry another's burdens, walking a mile in their shoes, for in blessing others, blessings often come to us. Here are some more amazing artworks to delight you on your road. Have a wonderful week, my dear watchers! Love, :heart: :floating: :rose: -Debra
