Word-Filled Wednesday

Here is my offering for today. I took this photo of an old barn up near Lyle, Washington, when Nolemana and I took a drive up in that area. I love the look of the barn, and thought this scripture went perfectly with it.

Amy over at The 100-Acre Woods has this neat thing she does every Wednesday.

This is my first offering; I love the idea, and though my Photoshop Elements skills are only at the beginner stage, I hope to learn more as I go along.
