Stepping into the new year, I pray to be more intentional in reading, meditating and writing God’s word daily. I pray for God to help me and guide one step at a time, to give me obedience heart to be in His word daily.
”Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:8-9 NLT)
This Mini Notebook Book from the December Creative Worship Inspiration is perfect as a start! I decorated the cover using supplies: – December Inspiration Box: Vintage Type Alpha stamp set – December Inspiration Box: Printable Clear Sticker
I also use couple more supplies from Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps: – Books of the Bible stamp set – Lines & Crosses Mini Stencil
May your new year will be blessed for God is with you to guide you with His word daily. This is his promise.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. See you next time!
Sometimes, we find it is hard to sing praises and to pray in hard situation and circumstances. When our mind occupied by worries and problems, we can think of something else. But God has provided ways for us to continue praying and praising His name.
In the book of Psalm, we can read all kind of praises and prayers that we can also use as our praises and use the verses to pray to the Lord. They are God’s word. And God’s word never return void (Isaiah 55:11).
In the book of Psalm 17, David expressed what was in his heart to the LORD with this prayer.
He pleaded for justice and brought his case before Him to judge.
He had confident that the LORD would answer his prayer.
He asked the LORD to show him His wonderful love, guidance, protection, and judgement over his enemies.
We all can have hope and faith in the same GOD for He is the LORD who is faithful and just. You can call upon Him today for He will listen and for sure He will answer you, my friends… He loves you with His everlasting wonderful love!
I created my mixed media tag bookmark today using these stamp sets from Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps:
CreativeWorship: My Savior’s Love clear stamp set
Funky Texture clear stamp set
On the background, I used Distress Crayons, TCW Matte Medium, and stamping with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink Pad, Faber Castell Big Brush Pen and PITT XS Pen.
As we walking into the new year, we all hope for better year. This week as I am meditating God’s word, I am reminded to walk in love with the Lord.
Reading the verse 2 John 1:6, I learned that walking in love is:
the beginning of God’s message
the foundation of teaching
the commandment
When we read and study God’s message in the Bible, we are walking in His love. We gain knowledge of who He is and his steadfast love for his people. We also are called to share and teach His message to others. We walk in love when we teach his teaching to others. And it is a commandment from the Lord himself. To love the Lord is to obey his commands.
My Bible journaling page today, I created using supplies from Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps:
Creative Worship: My Savior’s Love clear stamp set
Creative Worship: Sweetpea Alpha clear stamp set
Funky Texture clear stamp set
Hearts Galore Stencil
On the background, I added layers of Pastel Gelatos and Metallic Gelatos. And then I added layers of stamping with VersaMagic inks.
I stamped the flower images with VersaFine Clair Nocturne and I colored them with watercolor pencils and I cut it with scissors. I added to the journaling page with permanent adhesive glue.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Have a wonderful, blessed day!
On both wood slice backgrounds, I painted them with Black chalk paint. I set them aside to dry.
For the first ornament, I used the stencil, Metallic Gelatos, and white paint to create the starry night background.
I used Altenew Artist Markers to color the baby Jesus image after I stamped it with Memento Ink. And then I cut it with the matching die.
After the background dried, I added the Baby Jesus image on it with permanent craft glue. Make sure your glue is strong for wood or any surfaces.
For the other ornament, I cut the word Joy from the Peace & Joy Word Dies with permanent White Vinyl and then I added it on the wood slice. And then, I simply added the White Coconut Gelatos pigment on it with finger to give the chalkboard look on it.
All dies will be “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” from December 16th until December 23rd at Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps store!!!
I hope you like these two ornaments today and give it a try to make your own.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today. Have a blessed season!
December is here… Another year almost gone by. There many things uncertain and unknown in the future but today I read this Bible passage from Matthew 10:26-33 that give me peace and courage to keep on moving forward.
“So have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven, but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.”
There any nothing for us to fear because He knows what is hidden and what is in the open. The Lord Jesus himself said that we are of more value that many sparrows. He knows us personally, and whatever our situation is.
He will never denies nor forsake those who acknowledge Him! He commands us to not fear of anything.
On my Bible journaling page, I used:
Birds and Blooms Stamp Set
Birds and Blooms Die Set
Creative Worship Get To The Point Alpha Stamp Set
I stamped all the images on watercolor cardsrock with VersaFine ink pad and then colored then with Arteza Real Brushes and waterbrush. After that, I dried them all with a craft heat gun. And then, I cute them all with the matching dies.
For the background, I also used the Arteza Real Brush, waterbrush, and White Gesso. I dried the page with a craft heat gun and them I ironed it to smooth out the wrinkles on the page.
I added all the pieces on the page with permanent adhesive glue.
I stamped the letters with VersaMagic Night Sky DewDrop ink pad. I dried the ink with craft heat gun. And then, I wrote little note on it with Sakura Micron Pen.
