I understand that Money magazine came out with their most livable cities issue and this years winner is our neighbor to the east, namely, Eden Prairie, MN.    As it turns out Minnesota placed more cities in the top 20 then any other area in the country.  Well congratulations to all my hearty neighbors.  Those casseroles due us some good.  

The magazine had its criteria I'm sure as to why it chose these cities for their high standard of living, but I am prone to think that while the geographical area may contribute to overall well being , the real livability factor is what dwells in the brain.  "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he", so says God in Proverbs 23:7.  

The reason I bring this up is that this weekend our area is blessed to have Andrew Wommack conducting one of his seminars at the Hilton in downtown Minneapolis.  I have to admit being really blessed by his insight and heart for the Word of God.    I invite all to attend one or all the sessions, I know I'll be there.   The link for info  is www.awmi.net

I enjoy painting what I see, what light makes manifest.  The image built of oneself from the perspective of God informs us as to how we can see.  Not with our eyes only but to know in our heart the deeper truths.  As written in the book of Psalms...Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it:  Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.  Ps. 127:1,2
