30 Days of Gratitude Art Journaling Day 1
Welcome to Day 1 of Gratitude Art Journaling, “I Thank God"
As I am singing “Thank You, Lord”, I have a lot to be thankful for. All of us do. We are taking this opportunity to come together for this Gratitude challenge to share and fellowship with one another. I pray you experience a change in your life and that you will share with others.
We will be using color in our journals. Don’t let this keep you away. Simple art supplies are all you need. If you want to doodle with just color pencils that’ll work. If you choose to use inks and paints, that will work as well. Or you could write with pen or pencil. It's your journal! Whatever and however you decide, remember it’s about the process. The point is to get words on the paper....sprinkled with color.
The Challenge is for 30 days. To be effective, write in your journal at least 3 times a week. Write one sentence , one word or journal as you please. I will write each day in my Gratitude journal, but will post to the blog 3 times a week.
Ideas that may help...
*Journal the same time each day
*Use Scriptures or Quotes
*Use cut out of magazines for collage
*Draw, Doodle, Scribble..be free!!

31 Days of Faith Art Journaling
Day 31: Oil Pastel, Collage
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
2 Corinthians 13:14
Day 31!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord!
Singing, "Yes, Jesus loves me, for the Bible tells me so!"
Thank you for joining me on this last and final day of 31 Days of Faith Art Journaling! My heart is overflowing. I could hardly wait to get home to start on this page. Interesting, it wasn't until I sat down that anything would stand still in my mind. So, now it's 11:00 pm and I am at peace with what flowed from my heart.
I relieved myself of trying to create a masterpiece. I remained true to this journey. I learned about different ways to hear from the Lord. I learned about where I am at this point on this spiritual journey. I learned different art journaling techniques which made me step out of my comfort zone.
I indeed am the Lord's servant out of my comfort, growing in Christ each day!
Materials Used
Portfolio Oil Pastels
Pastel Pencils
Rain drop stickers

My heart is truly overflowing......I am praising God. Hands trembling.....I am just thankful that He chose me for this journey in order to give Him glory! Yes, I give Him glory! Great and Mighty is our God!
Dear Lord, my heart is open to Your will and Your way. Help me Lord when I come up short. Help me to remain focused on You. I desire to give You praise for all things big and small. In You I have found complete rest. Thank You, Lord!! Hallelujah!!!

31 Days of Faith Art Journaling Day 30

Scripture Journaling
Print out the scripture and glue to the pages.
When my daughter was in high school, she was on the relay team for the school’s track club. The relays were always the most exciting to me. As I watched the end of the race, there was always at least one kid who looked back while heading to the finished line. That motion seemed to slow down the momentum. Purpose will be better served to focus on the finish line and then review the video later. So, is the case with this journey.....
We are approaching the finish line. We are not there yet, but we can see it!!! Today is just as important. There are things that tried to run me down on this journey…anxiety, depression, not enough time, illness, pain, computer access, computer issues. pictures not loading,etc. But I never looked back. I never lost my momentum because I had people praying for me. And each day during my devotion, the Holy Spirit handed me yet another baton to carry. It’s a wonderful thing when the Lord can trust you to commit to a task.
My God cannot lie. So I rest on His promises. He can do anything and everything beyond my limited imagination and desires. I am so encouraged by this journey. This journey enabled me to Push regardless of pain and discomfort. I feel blessed. There is praise party in my heart!!!
Prayer: Dear Lord, I just want to thank You for trusting me. Thank You for prayer warriors. Thank You for humbling me. Lord, I dedicate my gift to You and give You all the glory! In Jesus Name.Amen!!!!
Being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.”
Romans 4:21-22
