HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD . . . the higher power, Life itself— NOT red, white and blue NOT orange or gold plated
SILENT INVISIBLE . . . yet seen and heard flowing through ALL of Creation
PRESENT IN ALL those who see and hear and those who cannot see or hear IN buildings and chapels and sanctuaries not made with human hands –
Each heart that cries out, Each soul languishing in darkness, Each flower trampled underfoot is held by the Unseen Presence of Love awaiting awakening of the depths of Life within planted by the Creator, the essence of Being drawing ALL back to incomprehensible Oneness of I AM . . . incomprehensible . . . I AM . . . MY HOPE
a work in progress . . . with many traumas of varying intensities and life experiences revealing a Power beyond explanation, I am more open and less defined than in years past - raised in a fundamentalist Judeo-Christian home, I spent my young adult years searching for “truth” in many places and “unlearning” much of what I “knew” and that has drawn me to explore many other paths and gain from the journeys of others.
My childhood was spent living in many places in the United States due to my family's music or ministry—The Hicks Family, made up of Olan and Barbara Hicks, my younger brothers, Clint and Chuck and me, sang in different combos (put out an album) - we do so no longer professionally . . . but, until my parents’ passing, a visit to a family gathering in Searcy would bring you to hear some harmonizing and foot-tapping sounds!
Music still speaks to my heart. Photography and graphic design are primary aspects of the path God has me walking - new lessons come often as I observe and ponder the world around me and learn from creation—so exciting!
