Hello, my name is Amylee,
and ” by the grace of God, I am what I am.”
(1Co 15:10)
I am a wife.
I am a mama.
I live in Iowa
with my wonderful and supportive husband and our two girls – and our dog, Jackson. My life
is full – blessedly full -- and the One that directs all of my steps in this life
is my Savior, Jesus. “Thy word is a lamp
beneath my feet.” (Ps119:105)
I am a BELIEVER.
I believe in God’s
leading. I believe in God’s words
speaking to directly to me as I walk this life.
I believe He is using my everyday circumstances to speak to me – and teach
me, guide me, and mold me as I study His word daily. I believe life isn’t always easy, and it
takes hard times to grow in faith. Just
as God took the Israelites through the wilderness, but continued to provide for
them and guard them as they traveled -- I
know He is providing for me and guarding me as I walk.
I am an artist.
It is a dream come true
to say those words … to live a life where my job is to use His words to create
art that moves into people’s homes, their lives, and hopefully LIVES in their
hearts.
Hi Amylee ~ I found you on Etsy today and FELL IN LOVE with your Art! Then I realized it was your Sweet, Sweet Spirit that I loved! So I was Led to your blog. Amylee, you are a Beacon of His Light in this sometimes dark world! He has blessed you with many Gifts! I am so happy to have found you! I live in MN., so we're neighbors. Although I don't know exactly where in Iowa you are. I live on the very Southern part of MN., Albert Lea. Right on the border of Iowa. I'm excited to follow your blog and I hope to be doing some shopping, too. Oh, one more thing that I connected with...the depression. I have battled it for a long time, but it stays controlled when I'm on my medications. Looking forward to a new Friend and Sister! Love in Jesus! ~ Jo
