I know it well after a day smattered with rowdiness and worn ragged with bickering, that I may feel disappointed and the despair may flood high, but to give thanks is an action and rejoice is a verb and these are not mere pulsing emotions. While I may not always feel joy, God asks me to give thanks in all things, because He knows that the feeling of joy begins in the action of thanksgiving. True saints know that the place where all the joy comes from is far deeper than that of feelings; joy comes from the place of the very presence of God. Joy is God and God is joy and joy doesn't negate all other emotions -- joy transcends all other emotions... Joy is a flame that glimmers only in the palm of the open and humble hand. In an open and humble palm, released and surrendered to receive, light dances, flickers happy. The moment the hand is clenched tight, fingers all pointing toward self and rights and demands, joy is snuffed out. Anger is the lid that suffocates joy until she lies limp and lifeless. And for me, it's a cosmic-numbing notion that far eclipses the domestic moment. It speaks to the whole of my life and the vision brands me: The demanding of my own will is the singular force that smothers out joy -- nothing else. "Pride slays thanksgiving... A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves." Dare I ask what I think I deserve? A life of material comfort? A life free of all trials, all hardship, all suffering? A life with no discomfort, no inconveniences? Are there times that a sense of entitlement is what inflates self, detonates anger, offends God, extinguishes joy? What do I really deserve? Thankfully, God never gives what is deserved, but instead, God graciously, passionately offers gifts, our bodies, our time, our very lives. God does not give rights but imparts responsibilities --- response-abilities -- inviting us to respond to His love-gifts. ...The secret of joy's flame: Humbly let go. Let go of trying to do, let go of trying to control...let go of my own way, let go of my own fears. Let God blow His wind, His trials, oxygen for joy's fire. Leave the hand open and be. Be at peace. Bend the knees and be small and let God give what God chooses to give because He only gives love, and whisper thanks. This is the fuel for joy's flame. Fullness of joy is discovered only in the emptying of will. And I can empty. I can empty because counting His graces has awakened me to how He cherishes me, holds me, passionately values me. I can empty because I am full of His love. I can trust. I can let go. Only self can kill joy. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/6/28y966pobe1hqb3jzse6aju48xy1wd monthly 0.5 2017-06-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1496746973730-T3I871DRL176VI9MK31L/image-asset.jpeg Blog - The Joy of Intimacy Just married, April 26, 1980   Marriage is a metaphor for the mystical union between the bride, a born again believer, and the Bridegroom King, Jesus. The bride belongs to the Bridegroom. (John 3:29) The person who is joined to the Lord is one sprit with him. 1 Corinthians 6:17 One last excerpt from 1000 Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are by Ann Voskamp Jesus says there is no other way to take up the faith but complete union: "I am in My Father, and you are in me, and I am in you" (John 14:20). I am stilled. I think on being in Christ and Him being in me and He is wind whisperer and I am leaf and He stirs and I tremble: "Remain in Me, and I will remain in you" (John 15:4). He's calling me to graft on, become one with the True Vine, the vine the biblical symbol of joy, festivity ... fullness. He's calling to come celebrate being made one, and in Him, to bear the fruit of the full life round. I see it clear, June coming in bright on the breeze through open window: there is no real reality, no full life, outside of the relationship with Love, because God Himself wraps Himself eternally in relationship: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit existing in relationship, an encircling dance of communion sweetest. God is love -- everywhere! everything! -- and He can only be love because He exists in triune relationship. Before I ever breathed or the earth ever spun, the love within the Godhead orbited, Father loving Son "before the creation of the world" (John 17:24) and when I am in union with Christ, I too am lavished with the love the Father has for the Son. In union, that love is mine -- ours! I can't simple ignore His serenade because I'm unsure, uncomfortable, uninterested, thinking I've claimed Christ as my Savior already anyways. God is relationship and He woos us to relationship and there is nothing with God if there is no relationship. Mystical Union. This, the highest degree of importance. God as Husband in sacred wedlock, bound together, body and soul, fed by His body, quenched by His blood -- this is where eucharisteo leads. Lover bestows upon the Beloved gifts, the Beloved gives thanks for those gifts and enters into the musical love union. If God, who could have any life of His choosing, finds the most satisfying joy in communion within the Trinity, wouldn't I? I know and don't know why I am afraid. How receptive to God do I really want to be? God makes love with grace upon grace, every moment a making of His love for us. And He invites the turning over of the hand, the opening and saying Yes with thanks. Then God lays down all His fullness into all the emptiness. I am in Him. He is in me. I embrace God in the moment. I give Him thanks and I bless God and we meet and couldn't I make love to God, making every moment love for Him? To know Him the way Adam knew Eve. Spirit skin to spirit skin. This is what His love means. I want it: union. This is the one gift He longs for in return for His unending gifts, and this even I could give Him, and anywhere. Anywhere -- in the kitchen scrubbing potatoes, in the arching cathedrals in Paris, in the spin of laundry and kids and washing toilets -- anywhere I can have intimate communion with the Maker of heaven and earth. Thank You, God, for the bread of now...for Your Son and sacrifice...for the love song You keep singing, the gift of Yourself that You keep giving...for the wild wonder of You in this moment. This is His song! I rejoice in you. Come rejoice in Me. The song that plays the world awake, the song that fuels joy: Enjoy Me. Enjoy Me! Is there a greater way to love the Giver than to delight wildly in His gifts.   https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/7/263wgufhljbpmsfo5jznv7ni11eip4 monthly 0.5 2017-06-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1496841258278-ENJVQ5THTD2QE467ME3P/image-asset.jpeg Blog - The Dancing Princess Bride https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/9/no-wave-too-high monthly 0.5 2017-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1497009829760-YJQDM0DDSRMTQJBTITEJ/image-asset.jpeg Blog - No Wave Too High No wave too high... watercolor by Lee Boynton   Sacrificial Love There is no wave too high for Me to still. There is no valley too deep for Me to fill. There is no trial for which My arm's too short, No tribulation through which I won't lend you my support. I am yours and you are Mine, So deeply are you rooted in the Vine, Heaven and earth may pass away, But My love for you will never fade. The love between the two of us Reflects My sacrifice upon the cross. Imbued with power from on high, Fear not, nor ever question why. Blessed with mercy from above, Spread abroad My tender love.   The story behind this poem Lee and I went through periods of great testing, the refiner's fire turned up seven times hotter than usual. The Lord grew our faith during those times. We were clay in His good hands. While in the fires of testing, we came to know Him as absolutely faithful to His Word, our Trustworthy Provider, Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, our Loving, Ever-present Father, our Prince of Peace. On Good Friday, 2001, I woke up at 3:00am and couldn't go back to sleep. I got out of bed to pray on my knees, and the words to this poem came to me, line by line. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/10/still-waters monthly 0.5 2017-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1497094101320-7MEYP6CPA8AHSR5180JR/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Still Waters Still Waters, photo by our friend Catherine Libeert   This is what the sovereign Lord says, "In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and trust is your strength... (Isaiah 30:15)   God Takes the Time to Do Everything Right Isaiah 30: 15-18 (Message Translation) God, the Master, has this solemn counsel: "Your salvation requires you to turn back to Me and stop your silly efforts to save yourselves. Your strength will come from settling down in complete dependence on Me -- the very thing you've been unwilling to do. You've said, 'Nothing doing!' We'll rush off on horseback!' You'll rush off, all right! Just not far enough! You've said, 'We'll ride off on fast horses!' Do you think your pursuers ride old nags? Think again: A thousand of you will scatter before one attacker. Before a mere five you'll all run off. There'll be nothing left of you -- a flagpole on a hill with no flag, a signpost on a roadside with the sign torn off." But God's not finished. He's waiting to be gracious to you. He's gathering strength to show mercy to you. God takes the time to do everything right -- everything. Those who wait around for Him are the blessed ones! https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/11/k0xx3cufkypk70aw0hareyt17ndy7b monthly 0.5 2017-06-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1497178812736-R0QGI0UKU6PP8OOR8DK4/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Racing the Storm Racing the Storm, oil painting by Lee Boynton   Psalm 23 -- by Leslie Brandt from Psalms Now The Lord is my constant companion. There is no need that He cannot fulfill whether His course for me points to the mountaintops of glorious joy or the valleys of human suffering, He is by my side. He is ever present with me. When I tread the dark streets of danger and even when I flirt with death itself, He will not leave me. When the pain is severe, He is near to comfort. When the burden is heavy, He is there to lean upon. When depression darkens my soul, He touches me with eternal joy. When I feel completely alone and empty, He fills the aching vacuum with His power. My security is in His promise to be near me always and in the knowledge that He will never let me go. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/12/heaven-scent monthly 0.5 2017-06-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1497274081741-26DUN36AUO5CVA23U1E2/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Heaven Scent Heaven Scent, Plein air oil painting by Lee Boynton   Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of Your wings. They feast on the abundance of Your house; You give them drink from Your river of delights. For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light. Psalm 36: 7-9   The story behind this painting: I took a class on writing memoir this past winter. We were given the assignment to write a short piece that would evoke emotion through the description of a place. Heaven Scent by Martha Boynton “You were heaven sent!” The words echoed in my mind. The pressure was on. It was the opening day of Paint Annapolis 2012, the last year the annual plein air painting competition was held downtown during the month of September. I could picture the woman saying those words, her hands on her cheeks, eyes wide, as she watched Lee paint the view of Spa Creek from her dock: "You were heaven sent!" And I pictured Lee painting. He was in “the zone,” he would say, a perfect oneness with God, light flowing from his brush. He painted with all the confident flare of a maestro conducting Beethoven’s Symphony #9: Ode to Joy. He was so excited to bring the painting home to show me later that morning. He propped it up on the back of our couch, and we stood back together to admire it. "Wow! The river of delight. In His light we see light," I said, quoting one of our favorite Scripture verses. "We should call this painting Heaven Scent. We laughed. The painting won the People's Choice award at the exhibition at the end of the competition, but it didn't sell that night. We brought it home and hung it above our couch where it could bring heaven to earth in our living room. Heaven sent. Heaven Scent.

Matthew 7:8 What a promise! God, our heavenly Father, loves to hear our voices. Prayer is conversation with Him, the One who knows us better than we know ourselves. And He really does watch over His Word to perform it! (Jeremiah 1:12) And here is another along those same lines: If any of you lacks wisdom [don't have the answers], let him ask of God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

Foster: Simplicity is a grace. It is given to us by God. There is no way that we can build up our willpower, put ourselves into this contortion or that, and attain it. It is a gift to be generously received... It slips in unawares. A new sense of wonder, concentration, even profundity steals into our personality. We change our lifestyle. Simplicity is also a discipline. It is a discipline because we are called to do something. Simplicity involves a consciously chosen course of action involving both group and individual life. What we do does not give us simplicity, but it does put us in the place where we can receive it. It sets our life before God in such a way that He can work into us the grace of simplicity. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/19/god-is-love monthly 0.5 2017-06-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1497906093045-HX86S1QAJOPR6ZWX4SLJ/image-asset.jpeg Blog - God is Love Love leaves His mark on a tree at the foot of the driveway at Lilac Hill   In Heavenly Love Abiding (written by Anna L.

John 3:16-17 Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, no one can see (or enter) the kingdom of God unless he is born again. John 3:3-4 Jack W. Hayford from my Spirit-Filled Life Bible: Kingdom Dynamic on John 3:1-5, New Birth Upon repentance, a new order of life opens to the believer in Jesus Christ. Jesus used the figure of "new birth" to dramatically indicate three things: 1. Without New Birth, there is no life and no relationship with God (John 14:6). 2. In New Birth, new perspective comes as we "see the kingdom of God." God's Word becomes clear, and the Holy Spirit's works and wonders are believed and experienced -- faith is alive! 3. Through New Birth, we are introduced -- literally we "enter" -- to a new realm, where God's new kingdom order can be realized. New Birth is more than simply being "saved." It is a requalifying experience, opening up the supernatural dimension of life and fitting us for a beginning in God's kingdom order. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/23/ymzm9jwwh1dobut7go8eiikcy3msgo monthly 0.5 2017-06-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1498227400904-AESD7I5Y1BFZE046DTJT/image-asset.jpeg Blog - A New Creation Take these broken wings and learn to fly... Photo by Catherine Boynton   Psalm 139:1-6, 13-14 (Passion Translation) You Know All About Me Lord, you know everything there is to know about me. You've examined my innermost being with Your loving gaze. You perceive every movement of my heart and soul, and understand every thought before it even enters my mind. You are intricately aware of me, Lord. You read my heart like an open book and You know all the words I'm about to speak before I even start a sentence! You know every step I will take before my journey even begins! You've gone into my future to prepare the way, and in kindness You follow behind me to spare me from the harm of my past. With Your hand of love upon my life, You impart a Father's blessing on me. You formed my innermost being, shaping my delicate inside and my intricate outside, and wove them all together in my mother's womb. I thank You, God, for making me so mysteriously complex! Everything You do is marvelously breathtaking. It simply amazes me to think about it! How throughly You know me, Lord!   My New Birth -- A Testimony Aching to Be Born "There is a self within each one of us aching to be born." Alan Jones, Theologian I studied in Aix-en-Provence during the spring semester of my junior year in college. In anticipation of my travels in Europe, my mother had contacted an old friend who lived in Amsterdam, a Dutchman. She and Feico had not been in touch since before she was married, some 25 years. We were so happy to have heard from him. He sent a photo of himself with his beautiful wife Adri and their five fresh-faced children, and invited me to come for a visit before returning to the States. I was very lost in my life that summer — crippled with insecurities and fears, battered by the expectations of the world, to which I had no real desire to conform… Far from home, I was beating my wings in the dead of night, and at war within myself. I could find no peace. Feico and Adri were Christians. They lived their faith very naturally; it permeated their home. From the moment I walked in their door, they, and their five children, enveloped me with their love like I was a beloved sister, a treasured aunt. That Sunday, they invited me to attend their home church which would be meeting in their living-room. I was hungry for everything they had to show me, so I accepted their invitation whole heartedly. Several young couples came with their children and took their seats. Feico and Adri’s oldest daughter Ruth, who was around 15 years old, played her violin while everyone sang. Following the worship, Feico taught on a passage from the Bible, which spurred a lively discussion about how the Word applied to everyone's lives. They shared their struggles and victories, cried and laughed and prayed for one another, and then we had lunch together. That night Feico and Adri opened the Word to me, and I knew it was the truth. “If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) I would be saved from myself, from a life on the high seas -- a life without a compass or an anchor, of being tossed and going nowhere. My whole life and mind underwent a shift during the week I spent with them. I opened the door to my heart and Jesus, the Light of the World came in, ready to dine with me at the banqueting table. (Revelation 3:20). In His marvelous light, many of the lies I was believing about myself, about God and about life had to go. A year and a half later, five days after my 25th birthday, I met Lee, and both of us knew God had brought us together. I was quite sure God had answered Feico and Adri’s prayers for me that blessed October night back in 1978. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/6/23/iovuqw68scv27pul4q3zp73qpy3xfy monthly 0.5 2017-07-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1498238517965-ZCAOWN16T5MUVIX0YZCJ/DSC_1651+%281%29.jpg Blog - The Fog Lifts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1498238541990-R6XUY5P6Z6JUXWBMB0IR/DSC_1654+%281%29.jpg Blog - The Fog Lifts https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/5/tongues-of-fire monthly 0.5 2017-07-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1499302141478-HAKD12XXI3KHI3TBAOT7/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Tongues of Fire Tongues of fire in our garden And all of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Acts 2:3 A Testimony to the Flame by Reinhard Bonnke The flame of Christ's compassion for the world has never exhausted itself. What exploded at the Cross is a stream of fire to this day. Calvary is not an extinct volcano. Eternal fires are still there for all who spiritually visit that place. Those shuddering hours of crucifixion were a special work, but not a final "peak." God's love has neither peaks nor valleys, waves or troughs: His compassions are steadfast, "new every morning." (Lamentations 3:23)   Our Spiritual Mother God blessed us with a spiritual father in our dear friend Feico as we were beginning to plant our feet on the Rock of our salvation, Jesus Christ, and not long after, a spiritual mother in Pierre, a close childhood friend of my mother's. Pierre and my mother had attended third grade together in Annapolis and were still in touch. From across the Atlantic, Feico, a kindly Dutchman, gave us our first, sweet taste of God's Word. It made sense to us in a world that was making less and less sense every day on every front. We needed a moral compass on our ship, and an anchor -- answers for ourselves, but also for our children. Dear friends at the church we were attending at the time, invited us to an intro night for Bible Study Fellowship one fall. They were doing a year-long study of the Book of Acts. Lee and I loved what we heard that night and signed up. Bible Study Fellowship was just what we needed, an in-depth study of God's Word. We were introduced to the Holy Spirit through that study, the fire behind the early church. Jesus had promised His disciples that God would be sending "another Helper," that would abide with them forever. (John 14:15) He said, "when the Helper comes, whom I shall send from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me." (John 15:26) He also said the Helper, the Holy Spirit, would empower them to be witnesses to Him "to the ends of the earth." Jesus had instructed his disciples to go to Jerusalem and wait for "the Promise of the Father." One hundred twenty of Jesus' followers, including the disciples, returned to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, where they had watched the risen Jesus ascend into heaven. They went up into an upper room in the place where they were staying, and prayed for several days. They were "all of one accord [in complete harmony of mind and spirit] in one place," waiting. On the Day of Pentecost the promised "Helper" came. It sounded like a mighty rushing wind and appeared as flames of fire, resting on the heads of each person who was there. During the study of the Book of Acts we heard about a book that was making waves in the Episcopal church, Miracle in Darien by Bob Slosser. This book documented a powerful move of the Holy Spirit at St. Paul's Episcopal church in Darien, CT. Pierrie lived in Darien and attended St. Pauls's. When she came to visit my parents that year, God joined our hearts. Pierrie was on fire for how God was awakening His church. The mighty rushing wind and flames of fire could be heard and seen in our land and around the globe, and Pierrie was following it closely. She shared everything she was learning with us, and we were eager recipients. The Holy Spirit and the Word of God were the glue in our relationship with Pierrie, our spiritual mother. Pierrie went home to Jesus, three weeks after my mother. They were both 94 years old.   Lamentations 3:22-25 Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. The Lord is my portion, says my soul, Therefore I hope in Him! The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/8/uiqk2215isczo5spgq33czy0oali9o monthly 0.5 2017-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1499513795941-PIHTQNTT3WGUEJC1CW8H/image-asset.jpeg Blog - God's Workmanship Forget-me-nots from my German Street garden   My response is to get down on my knees before the Father, this magnificent Father who parcels out all heaven and earth. I ask Him to strengthen you by His Spirit -- not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength -- that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite Him in. And I ask Him that with both feet planted firmly on Love you'll be able to take in the extravagant dimensions of Christ's love. Reach out and experience the breadth! Test its length! Plumb the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God. God can do anything, you know -- far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!

Did he who made the Lamb make thee?   On Imagination An excerpt from If You Want to Write by Brenda Ueland Now this creative power I think is the Holy Ghost. My theology may not be very accurate but this is how I think of it. I know that William Blake called this creative power the Imagination and he said it was God. He, if anyone, ought to know, for he was one to the greatest poets and artists that ever lived. Now Blake thought that this creative power should be kept alive in all people for all of their lives. And so do I. Why? Because it is life itself. It is the Spirit. In fact it is the only important thing about us. The rest of us is legs and stomach, materialistic cravings, and fears. How could we keep it alive? By using it, by letting it out, by giving time to it... Blake used to say, when his energies were diverted from his drawing or writing, "that he was being devoured by jackels and hyenas." And his love of Art (i.e., expressing in painting or writing the ideas that came to his Imagination) was so great that he would see nothing but Art in anything he loved. And so, as he loved the Apostles and Jesus, he used to say that "they were all artists." God he often called the "Poetic Genius" and he said "He who loves feels love descend into him and if he has wisdom, may perceive it is from the Poetic Genius, which is the Lord." As for Blake's happiness -- a man who knew him said: "If asked whether I ever knew among the intellectual, a happy man, Blake would be the only one who would immediately occur to me," As an old man, Blake's wish for a little girl was "that God might make His world as beautiful to her as it had been to him." He did not mind death in the least. He said that to him it was just like going into another room. On the day of his death he composed songs to his Maker and sang them for his wife to hear. Just before he died his countenance became fair, his eyes brightened and he burst into singing of the things he saw in heaven. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/10/wisdom monthly 0.5 2017-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1499685834262-WCWFU0M3J2KGWODD4AO8/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Wisdom Marigolds, oil painting by Margie Boynton   Psalm 19:7-19 (NIV) The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul.

Jesus called a little child and had him stand among them. And He said:"I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. Matthew 18:1-5   A Childlike Heart, by Claire Cloninger from my Women's Devotional Bible I used to be a little baffled by Nehemiah 8:10: "For the joy of the Lord is your strength." To me, that verse never made much sense, because joy didn't seem to be all that strong a quality. I thought it would have made more sense if it had said, "The strength of the Lord is your joy." But the longer I live, the more I realize that the ability to find joy in life really is a tremendous strength. The people who can laugh are the strong ones. The people who can throw their heads back and delight in the joy of the moment are going to live a lot longer than those of us who are stressed and pushed and taking ourselves terribly seriously... Children really are good at open-hearted, spontaneous joy. They know it intuitively. That's why they use it lavishly in the present moment. They don't put it in a savings account for a rainy day. They don't put it on hold or put a lid on it. They spend it with abandon. They practice it at every small occasion. That's why they are such pros and getting it right! https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/12/gods-constant-love monthly 0.5 2017-07-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1499863121164-08ZZQ5PBTY1BUWPDV0HT/image-asset.jpeg Blog - God's Constant Love God's resplendent glory fully on display on the Isle of Skye, photo by Catherine Libeert   God's Constant Love Psalm 107:1-16, Passion Translation Let everyone give all their praise and thanks to the Lord!

Tell the world how He broke through and delivered you from the power of darkness and has gathered us together from all over the world. He has set us free to be His very own! Some of us once wandered in the wilderness like desert nomads with no true direction or dwelling place. Starving, thirsting, staggering we became desperate and filled with despair. Then we cried out, "Lord, help us! Rescue us!" And He did! He led us right into a place of safety and abundance, a suitable city to dwell in. So lift up your hands and thank God for His marvelous kindness and for all of His miracles of mercy for those He loves. How He satisfies the souls of thirsty ones and fills the hungry with all that is good! Some of us once sat in darkness, living in the dark shadows of death. We were prisoners to our pain, chained to our regrets. For we rebelled against God's Word and rejected the wise counsel of God Most High. So He humbled us through our circumstances, watching us as we stumbled with no one there to pick us back up. Our own pain became our punishment. Then we cried out, "Lord, help us! Rescue us!" And He did! His light broke through the darkness and He led us out in freedom from death's dark shadow and snapped every one of our chains. So lift your hands and give thanks to God for His marvelous kindness and for His miracles of mercy for those He loves! For He smashed through heavy prison doors and shattered the steel bars that held us back, Just to set us free! https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/14/hn3l3n43fb3412836ksrdtpafpnsh5 monthly 0.5 2017-07-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1500059199408-DX4W7S91IITT18FCEJ0F/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Amazing Grace Our dear Georgette hanging out the laundry at Lilac Hill, Plein air oil painting by Lee Boynton   Amazing Grace, by John Newton Amazing grace how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me, I once was lost by now I'm found, Was blind but now I see...   God so LOVED the world He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in him will not perish, but have eternal life. God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. John 3:16-17 What is eternal life? Jesus answers that question for us. He prayed to His Father in heaven, "this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You sent." Dirty Laundry Give your dirty laundry to God and He will make it white as snow. Isn't that awesome! Eternal life begins the moment we acknowledge our wayward thinking, repent, surrender our lives to God and accept His Son Jesus into our hearts as our Savior and Lord. That moment when we turn the reins over to Him, the old confused heart of stone goes and the new tender heart of flesh comes, the heart made alive through the Holy Spirit. We are able to know God. John Newton (1725-1807) Before his conversion, John Newton was involved in the slave trade as his profession -- first as crew on slave ships, and then as a captain. While serving as crew aboard the Greyhound, he gained notoriety for being one of the most profane men on board. He wrote lewd poems and songs openly mocking the captain, and encouraging his crew mates to join him in chanting or singing them. He called himself the Great Blasphemer, deriding and denouncing God as a myth, and ridiculing others who revealed the slightest glimmer of faith. He was a man without limits, indulging himself in every vice from drinking, to fighting to fornication. In March 1748, while at sea in the North Atlantic, a violent storm came upon the Greyhound. One of his fellow crew members was swept overboard from the spot where he had been standing moments before. The hull was beginning to break apart and it looked like the ship was on its way down. In moments of extreme desperation, while lashed to the pump and bailing for all he was worth, Newton cried out to God for mercy. In the harrowing hours to follow, he questioned why God would ever want to spare his life. He thought he had sinned too much to have any hope of God's forgiveness. This was the opening to his hardened, darkened heart through which God could shine his marvelous light, and for the rest of his life, he marked March 10 as the anniversary of his new birth. His growth in his new life in Christ was slow at first. He experienced several more miraculous rescues from death by the storms of life, including illness, starvation, mutiny plots and slave uprisings, and came to see God's amazing grace for what it was. He finally abandoned the sea faring life and responded to a call to the ministry. He was ordained as a priest on June 17, 1764. Newton wrote poems and hymns to accompany his sermons. He wrote the lyrics for Amazing Grace in late 1772, and it was first sung during a New year's Day service on January 1, 1773. Talk about transformation and giving glory to God! This hymn is estimated to be performed 10 million times annually around the globe, and has appeared on over 11,000 albums. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/18/m1elww6pog5pbx09fpqxup9chbxcc3 monthly 0.5 2017-07-18 https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/7/20/holding-promise monthly 0.5 2017-07-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1500556892467-5566XU69EZN2PFBI7O0V/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Holding Promise Foxgloves and forget-me-nots in my German Street garden, Photo by Catherine Boynton   Heart Change I may have always known that change takes real intentionality, like a woman bent over her garden beds every day with a spade and a determined will to grow up something good to strengthen the heart...

In Me, you are an oak of righteousness, firmly planted in the soil of My love. Continue to abide in Me, and I will abide in you -- forever." That made me smile inside and out. "Yes Lord, You are Love. I want my roots to go deep in You -- to be as solid and immovable as that oak tree." Lesson #2 -- Divine Intervention I posted the photo of this oak tree with a heart at its base along with John 4:16 on June 19. Three days later, I decided to make a quick stop in to see my 97 year old father while I was out doing some errands. As I pulled into his driveway at Lilac Hill around 10:00am, I found a massive branch had fallen from an oak closer to the entrance. I couldn't reach my father. "This is very odd," I said to myself. "We haven't had a storm or any high winds since I was here last night." I got out of my car, planning to drag the branch out of the way, but it was too heavy to even budge, and I'm not a weakling! I made some calls, but could find no immediate solution. When I came with my father's dinner that evening at 5:30, I was surprised to find the tree limb had been pulled off to the side. The driveway was passible. I called my sister Melissa. "Who came to the rescue?" I asked. "The oddest thing happened, " she said. "When I came to see Dad at 1:00, a pizza delivery man pulled up behind me. A little man got out and pulled the limb out of the way for me, and then went on his way. I mean, this was not a big, strapping fellow. He was very small. I think he was an angel." He will command His angles concerning you to guard you in all your ways. Psalm 91:11 Tomorrow, Lesson #3 -- Abiding https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2017/8/15/sb08qn4klj51oaatibdcl5gumi1mn1 monthly 0.5 2017-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1502850540242-KXMK9903WP62720N8W2H/image-asset.jpeg Blog - Abiding Fruit of the Vine, Oil painting by Lee Boynton Lesson # 3 -- Abiding in the Vine I could cut up that dead limb, I thought. I'm not a helpless widow. The next day, I took Lee's chainsaw to Bowen's, our local farm supply store, to have it serviced. "We'll call you in three weeks, the repair man said, handing me the claims ticket. I passed that fallen limb pulled off to the side of the driveway close to the entrance every day for two weeks when I went to see my father, and thought about tackling that job with Lee's chainsaw. I will teach myself to use that chainsaw and will get that job done! Then on Sunday, July 9, I was surprised to find someone had beaten me to it. The thin outer branches were strewn around like a set of long-armed jacks, along with 6 or 8 small 10 inch logs. Whoever had tackled the job had taken most of the wood away, no doubt to burn in their fireplace or woodturning stove. God bless them! I knew other opportunities to learn to use the chainsaw would be coming along. As I was driving down the driveway that evening, and approached the spot where the limb had been, a thought screamed in my mind, riveting my full attention. That dead branch has been cut up and will be burned. "That's in John 15 about the vine and the branches," I said out loud. "God is the Vinedresser." When I got home, I ran up to my room to find my Bible. I had to read that whole passage about the vine and the branches. What was the Vinedresser wanting to say to me through His living word? "Let me be teachable, Lord" I prayed out loud. "This is a familiar passage, but clearly You want me to read it with fresh eyes, and to pay special attention to what you have to say about dead wood. That fallen branch had barred the way to my father. What dead branches in me are barring my way to You?" John 15: 1-8 Jesus said, I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. Love and Joy Perfected -- John 15: 9-12 As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in Him. These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you. In the weeks to follow, God answered my prayer. He showed me one big dead branch in my life, and gave me an opportunity to learn to use the chainsaw in the Spirit.

So now everyone who believes in Him will never perish but experience everlasting life. God did not send His Son into the world to judge and condemn the world, but to be its Savior and rescue it! John 3:16-17 The Final Salute “He might not make it till Saturday,” Kristina, the hospice nurse, whispered, tiptoeing into the kitchen. Dad had developed a sudden onset of congestion that Monday. A deep, full-bodied cough had kept him awake for two nights. He was delirious with fatigue, but still pushing to adhere to his hourly routine, his life-line. “I don’t know how he made it across the room from the hospital bed to his recliner this morning,” Kristina said with a hushed, sardonic laugh. We knew things had taken a turn for our father. My sister Melissa had called Kristina Wednesday afternoon and asked her to come. My sister Margaret hopped on a plane from Boston the next day. Melissa picked her up at the airport, and the four of us arrived at my father’s house around 2:00pm, within ten minutes of each other. God’s timing. He was present to us in the details from that moment on. My sisters and I felt an odd sense of comfort as we convened around the kitchen table, awaiting Kristina’s assessment. All of us were there, we marveled — Dad’s three daughters — the three “M”s — And Kristina, the hospice nurse handpicked by our Heavenly Father to walk our earthly father through the process of dying. Kristina felt like a sister to us. She had the naval connection and many uncanny parallels in her life. Her father was an alumni of the Naval Academy. She was one of six kids, three girls and three boys, just like us, and she had married a graduate of the Naval Academy. She and Dad bonded instantly when she first came, and we all looked forward to the Honor Salute he would be receiving through Hospice of the Chesapeake on Saturday, January 27. Dad would listen to a professional. Kristina gave him permission to go to bed and stay there. She gently explained to him that this was it, and what to expect. He received it from her like a child, and went to bed. Once he was tucked in with his head on the pillow, we heard him give a deep sigh of relief. No more pushing, no more clinging to his routine Kristina and Darlena, the caregiver on duty that day, gave him half of a Larazapan pill, the tranquilizer from the comfort box in the refrigerator. Dad had never taken sleep aids or tranquilizers. When he couldn’t sleep or was anxious, he prayed, casting his cares on the Lord who cared for him. But on this day he did as he was told. We were all surprised to receive his morning email the next day at 6:40: “34 degrees and a great doped sleep… now what?” He was still with us, on schedule with his morning email, letting all six of his children know he had made it through the night. Sleep is always restorative. When I arrived that morning, Margaret was sitting at his bedside. She was reading letters he had written to Mom when he was away at sea in 1965. I sat down on the settee and listened. These letters were a glimpse into his life as commanding officer of the Vermillion, a 489 foot attack cargo ship assigned to operations along the eastern seaboard. He was managing a crew made up of 38 officers and 387 enlisted personnel. Mom and Dad had kept each others letters, so we could read them alternately: life at sea, life at home — a delightful repartee between them, laced with humor. Memories flooded into our minds. I had a renewed respect for my father. Little did I know what he bore on his shoulders when I was 12 years old. Dad had kept in close touch with extended family and old friends through email in his latter years. His iPad was his link to the outside world once he relinquished his drivers license. As the storm was gaining force, he sent one last email to his “subscribers,” letting them know all was not well with him. On Friday, January 26, emails began to arrive, one after the other, on Dad’s iPad from nieces, nephews, cousins, grandchildren, and old friends, expressing their appreciation for how he had touched their lives. The words “humble” and “generous” came up over and over again. Margaret, Melissa and I were at his bedside. The grandchildren in town came to pay their last respects. Many in far away places called to have one last conversation and to say goodbye. We were in close touch with our three brothers on the west coast through Skype and phone calls. Margaret composed the morning email for him on Saturday, January 27. He was letting us know he made it through the night once again. I opened his front door cautiously when I came at 9:00a.m., an hour before the Honor Salute ceremony was to take place. I didn’t know what to expect. Would he still be able to connect? He was sitting up and alert to my arrival. He smiled. “There you are!” he said as I approached his bed. “Margaret sent the email this morning. Did you respond?” I was the email miscreant in the family. I just never seemed to respond on time, and he let me know. “I’m here in person,” I said, taking his warm hand in mine, and kissing it. He’s up for the ceremony I thought to myself. Dying is as much of an adventure as any of his tours at sea. I knew my friends at the Glen Burnie House of Prayer were praying for us — a core of very dedicated intercessors, responding to their call. We felt their prayers. A palpable sense of peace filled the house. The rhythmic pumping of the oxygen machine seemed to resonate with the very heartbeat of God, our Eternal Father, and the soothing sound of the water flowing through it like a cool mountain stream. Everything flowed with the very harmony of heaven, the atmosphere saturated with sunlight, sweetness and love. Bill Lovelace, the master of ceremonies, arrived at 10:00, precisely on time, along with two young air force officers in full dress uniform. Everything about Mr. Lovelace was in sharp contrast to his military escorts. He was dressed casually in a white, long-sleeved knit sports shirt with a red and yellow stripe at the chest. White-haired and trim, he looked to be in his early to mid eighties. A prominent wooden cross hung at his neck. Dad beamed. He was more than present; he was fully engaged, the wide smile on his face drawing them in to his bedside. https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2018/4/27/dxtx3swcxw1si2dwuinfs1m2zwcu3s monthly 0.5 2020-11-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1527174699055-2ZT8SOYPZOPDMOOIEL4R/DSC_1726.jpg Blog - Find Rest and Refreshment For Your Souls Plein air watercolor by Lee Boynton https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2018/7/24/the-sense-of-wonder-lee-boynton-and-rachel-carson monthly 0.5 2020-11-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1532467878087-QTCWUVI6OWL21WXIJBV1/DSC_1015.jpg Blog - The Sense of Wonder - Lee Boynton and Rachel Carson Lee painting on Southport Island, Maine https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2019/6/8/ballards-and-brushes monthly 0.5 2019-06-08 https://www.leeboyntonlegacy.com/news/2020/2/13/a-special-commission-margie-boynton-on-working-through-personal-struggle monthly 0.5 2021-05-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1581606395221-A8UNOG8W4K7WVF0YWV2O/IMG_2548.JPG Blog - A Special Commission - Margie Boynton on working through personal struggle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1581606406403-WDYE1HV2P0SPLRCEJKGI/IMG_2543.jpg Blog - A Special Commission - Margie Boynton on working through personal struggle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1581606436364-2XE869LNL7L802F3MYBY/IMG_2539.JPG Blog - A Special Commission - Margie Boynton on working through personal struggle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ae15249de4bb3199c02cdd/1581606508967-HE20INUH8SSQ91LNCH5C/IMG_1701.JPG Blog - A Special Commission - Margie Boynton on working through personal struggle This is the finished painting.
