Thought and Reflection

Once in a while what we want to do is exceptionally basic and plain, right? I really want to deal with everyone around me justly — practicing persistence and dealing others in fairness, without prejudice. I want to practice mercy — favoring others deprived with what they don’t merit however so greatly need. I want to walk humbly with God — knowing that without His grace and help I will surely fail.

My Prayer

Heavenly Father, please make of me what You will — Your perfect will. As you mold me, please bless me as I seek to be a person of justice, mercy, and humility. In Jesus mighty name I pray. Amen.

Alona Smith writes like she sketches—quick strokes, bold colors, no eraser. She ran a small-town art studio before VerseForTheDay invited her to swap charcoal for chapters, yet paint still flecks her keyboard. Dawn finds her barefoot on the porch, swirling watercolors across a travel Bible, letting sunrise seep into the margins. Neighbors wave as she bikes to the farmers’ market, basket rattling with sunflowers and Psalms scribbled on kraft-paper price tags.Alona trusts that Scripture behaves like clay: press your palms in, and a vessel appears where empty air once lived. Afternoon workshops with foster teens prove the point; they mold hope into coffee mugs, then watch steam carry it forward.Diplomas? Only framed sketches of hands lifted in worship. Awards? A dog-eared gratitude list taped to her fridge. Open her reflections when cynicism scratches—she’ll slide a brush into your grip and show you light hiding in the smear of everyday color.
