Does it get much better?Sweet Pea's favorite activity is reading.  Ive caught her several times crawling into her chair in her playroom "reading" a book. Just recently, she has...

Trusting God to Light the Way…Isaiah 42:16

 I am a control freak... I know this, and I covered this fault of mine in an entire post here.  It was my last post before my almost 3 year hiatus. Because of my controlling nature, I tend to have pretty serious trust issues.  I hate disappointing people or not living up to the potential that I have been given. Therefore, when presented to work in a group, I am not the best...

What I Made This Past Week…

Today I am linking up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics to tell about what I made this past week.   She does a linky party every month for people to share about what they've made, whether it is for the home, classroom, or just for fun!  It's a great way to see what other bloggers have been up to.  So this past week, this is what I created....By BFF from high school broke her ankle...

Bible Journaling 1 Corinthians 12-13

I love to journal in my girl's Legacy Bible. I love writing to her about what God teaches me through the Scriptures.  I ordered the Illustrated Faith "Created to Create" kit, and the second devotion was on 1 Corinthians 12:1-11 about gifts." There are different kinds of gifts. But they are all given to believers by the same Spirit. 5 There are different ways to serve. But...

CREATED to Create

I create art in my Bible.  Why?  Because I want my little girl to know so much about the Love of God and His Wisdom and grace.  I want to make sure that when she walks the road without me, that I have equipped her well so she can withstand the storm and know that God is with her no matter what.  I really think my Bible is more of a Legacy Bible, and that is what I am calling...

Making Art in My Bible.

I always wanted to be an Art Teacher.  I knew in high school that that was what "I wanted to be when I grew up."  I went to college and graduated with my Art Teaching Degree in 2004, but I could never find that art position until 2008.  For those 4 years, I was in a dry spell.  I crafted every now and then, but actually making art... nope.  When I taught art in 2008-09...

Beth Moore Rocks My World!!

Well.... she doesn't really rock my world, but her TEACHING does!  If you do not know who Beth Moore is, she is a Christian author who writes Bible studies mainly for women. She also makes videos so that you can do the study in a small group setting whether in the home or at church.  I did a study on the book of Revelations by her last year, but now I started a new one on the book of...
