HEART FOR HAITI

HEART FOR HAITI © Caroline Simas 2010
I have been thinking and praying about what I can do to help the people of Haiti. In addition to financial donations through church, I wanted to do something tangible. It's just not in the cards as a mother of four to go to Haiti and volunteer right now. I do hope there will be a season of life for me to do that there or somewhere similar one day. But for now, tiny ol' me can make a small difference by using my artistic talent. We can all do something, and I do believe, all small efforts do add up to touch lives.
After much prayer and a load full of ideas, I finally feel like this is what I was supposed to do. I painted a heart shaped like a puzzle...it has been broken, like Haiti, but when put back together it can be beautiful once again. WE are the ones to put the puzzle back together...with our financial dollars, our time, our talent, our energy, our food, our medicine, our donations. I believe we are all called in some capacity to help.
So this heart is wrapped in pieces of 1 Corinthians 13 love.
love is patient.
love it kind.
love always hopes.
it always perseveres.
love never fails.

So I have 8x10 thick, glossy prints which will be for sale for $10 each at our special
"Spring Event" this Friday and I hope that you will swing by to purchase one...for you, for a friend, for a kitchen, a bathroom, for a child's room, a laundry room, or playroom. It will look great framed anywhere! You'll be reminded of God's great love and also how YOU helped by purchasing a HEART FOR HAITI. We'll have LOTS of other beautiful goodies too that you will not want to miss.
