Day 15: Pentel Oil Pastels, Water Color Paints, Doily Stencil

 

But now you must also put away all of the following: anger, wrath, malice, slander and filthy language from your mouth. Colossians 3:8

 

Half way there! Day 15!!  Getting my praise dance on because this day wasn't suppose to happen! But the Lord had another plan. I believe God!

Scripture Journaling

 

Print out or write scripture.

 



 

 

I love nature and I am always inspired by nature in my writings, photography or art. Nature soothes me, calms me and connects me the Lord. It's hard to explain, because it's more than a feeling. Yet, when I was in my darkest hours, nothing could comfort me and I was filled with hurt and anger. Therefore, the words that came from my mouth were filled with hurt and anger. My  poems were filled with hurt, anger and sadness.

 

I am here today in my right frame of mind, because the Lord saved me. I have a new language. And even when the sting of my experiences try to resurface, I know to start praying. I remember the darkness. And I won't turn back!

 

 

Prayer: Heavenly Father, from the bottom of my heart I say, "Thank You." The road I was traveling was taking me in circles. It took me a while to jump off that road in faith and to trust you completely. I am glad I did. I thank You for my past experiences. I praise You for keeping me. I know I am that important to You. In Jesus. Amen.
