‘MADE WHOLE’

© 17/4/16 By Shiloh Moore

Thank you for your love, support, thoughts and prayers.

I know it may feel frustrating,

like your prayers for me are unsatisfied…

But I feel honoured to be thought of by you

Every thought, blessing, healing ‘vibe’ and prayer

is of immense value to me

I have accepted my circumstances and

do not pray to be healed as in ‘cured’

I pray of healing in the biblical interpretation

as in to be ‘made whole’

This prayer has been answered:

as in this moment

spiritually, emotionally, socially,

essentially

I feel at peace, of worth, valued,

deeply loved and

wholeheartedly ‘whole’

I am filled with abundant gratitude

for the love, respect, support and grace

my community has given me

I cherish that in company my presence is appreciated

and that my absence is felt

Please continue sending your love, best wishes, and prayers

I know we will get through this
Whatever the outcome,

TOGETHER

Paisley Heart Thanks Owl

When I completed 'Hypnotic Heart Owl' (see here) I could see the drawing of the owl I used looked like a Paisley pattern.  I've been wanting to make thank you cards, so I decided to make a design I could use using the owl in a Paisley pattern.  I recently bought new small Posca Markers in Black, Blue, Green and Pink, so I used them.

After I finished the thank you card design (above) I saw the pink around the heart-face could also be used with curves like the rest of the body, and I also wanted to draw the owl larger, on its own without the word 'thanks,' so I redrew it (below:)
