This is a watercolor image of a Russian woman walking along the street.  It is done quite abstractly and I really liked the way it speaks to me.  I think she is very patient and brave and though her legs might not be as flexible and strong as earlier in her life, her resolve seemed sure and capable.

I believe that God has an especially merciful heart for the elderly, who often express great faith in him.  I find that as I age, I am drawn more and more closely to him myself.  Through my cottage door, I am amazed at his care for me and for those he loves in this world.  We have so much to look forward to in the life to come.
