Ruth, this is just lovely! I paint orchids so am always on the lookout for especially beautiful ones to appreciate and adore. I live in Hawaii on the the Big Island also known as the "Orchid Isle". I have ordhids attached to trees outside in my yard.. so lovely, orchids. Kathy

Artist Reply: Kathy...my husband, who raises these orchids, would be in his glory if he had orchids growing on trees in the yard!!! LOL In fact, we will probably be going to Hawaii next year. I know he will come back with a "creek" in his nect from looking "up"!!! LOL I have been wanting to paint orchids for him, but haven't so far...maybe soon!! :) Thanks so much for your wonderful comments and feedback!!

so lovely Ruth! like the royal love of Christ! Excellent photo. Very moving and thrilling to behold. I am ever amazed at the variety and beauty of the flowers in the world that God has created. You being one! You have touched my heart and soul this day with your spirit. Thank you for commenting on my phtos and art. I say it is my blessing that I have come to know you. I am glad you are here. I am glad you are alive. Truly you are as the Ruth of old! you like the scent of a delicate flower. Your kindness as a sweet savor testifies of the Kingdom of heaven. I am touched by your words on my last postings. I wanted to be honest with the people here so that they know where I am coming from and who I am. I live because the love of Christ has brought me thus far. As he loves all. I do not understand everything about life still but this I do know is that the Holy Spirit is real and shall prevail over all the evil one day. I have lived through much sorrow but it is the love of people like You and Christ that has kept me alive. Thank you so much. May the Creator ever be with you in all you do and may you ever be safe within the realm of his touch. Sinseerly your sister Christine

Artist Reply: Christine...your words almost made me cry! You have such an eloquent way of expressing yourself...something that I do not possess! I have a hard time expressing in words how I really feel in my heart. But I do know that I am so glad to "know" you. I FEEL your love for Christ and all mankind and it comes out through your wonderful art and the stories and text that goes with it!! Thank you for your lovely comments and well wishes! May you continue healing and showing the love of Christ through your art and your life!! Your sister in Christ! Ruth
