Beholdings!
A Book of Journaling & Sketching
Inspired by the Art & Writings of Lilias Trotter
Mother’s Day is just around the corner begging the perennial question: What do I give that special woman (or women!) in my life? We suggest Beholdings! It is always a delight to get feedback about our Lilias-related publications. Beholdings is no exception. While titled “a book for journaling & sketching,” our readers suggest other creative ways in which they are using this book:
- A prayer diary to record prayer requests and responses
- A devotional – meditating on the painting and/or quote on each page
- A place to capture in words and/or sketches sightings or blessings – beholdings! – noticed in one’s daily life
- A book in which to map their spiritual pilgrimage by highlighting key landmarks in their walk of faith
