Day 10: Water Soluble
Oil Pastels
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your
understanding.
Proverbs 3:5
Woo Hoo! We have reached double digits!!! Day 10. This has
been the most amazing journey. Though I have been journaling scriptures,
I am also reading before and after the selected scripture. I sing to myself, listen to music
or journal in the quietness of the morning. This journey is helping me so much to
hear from the Lord in this season. I pray this journey is creating a deeper level
of journaling for you.
Let's Begin!
Materials Used
Paper
Water Soluble Oil
Pastels
Sharpie Permanent Marker
************************
Directions
1.
Be free and allow yourself to draw , make circles or
any design.
2.
Rub the pastel to blend the colors. Pastels are very creamy and so much fun.
3.
Outline focal points in black. Rub to blend
4.
Seal your work
When working with oil pastels the chalk can transfer to
other pages. You can seal with a fixative, spray varnish or frame your work. All
spraying should be done outside. Currently, I don’t have a fixative, but read
some where, you could use hair spray or matt medium. I will let you know how
either of these works.
Scripture Journaling
Journal in the corners of your work.
My love for the Bible began in 3rd grade when
Mrs. Powell use to read Bible stories each day. When I tried reading at home, I
was often left confused and frustrated. Yet I was determined at age 9 or so to
read the whole Bible. Still on a journey to listen to God through His Word, I have
learned to pray for wisdom when studying the scripture. The same scripture may
speak to me differently depending on what’s going on in my life. I find that
amazing!
Was there ever a time when you handled or reacted in a
situation before praying about it and the results less than favorable?
Prayer: Dear
Lord, I ask that You always go before me. If it is your will for me to
understand certain situations, I will follow You. If it is Your will to prepare
me for Divine answers, I trust You. In Jesus Name. Amen
