The Beginning

Starting doing beading in @1995 after getting alcohol poisoning while out partying with friends. It is a talent that God gave me to keep me from trying to kill myself (literally through binge drinking and then driving while drunk) From broken to Reborn, from lost to Found, God gave me this talent to make jewelry and I didn't realize how relevant it was to my life until I was listening to the radio praising God and this song came on (of course I forgot the name and such) but it talked about taking the old and making it new again. God did that with me as I do that with my jewelry! I love taking old broken pieces and recreating something new and exciting. If the necklace doesn't have earrings with it, I can make some to go with it. Romans 7:24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of death. vs 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. It only through Jesus can we be truly changed, He alone has all power to deliver us from the bondage of sin and give us new life.
And while this started out as Jewelry, it has become a creative outlet in Bible Journaling and other crafts. Keep God number one in everything you do!

Iceberg Ahead!


How often do you compare your life/actions with others around you? I do it more than I should. I see people who are happy and wish that I was in their shoes until that still small voice BOOMS "Are you sure you see all that is going on in their life?" 
We are all like icebergs - our bulk (personal life) is usually UNDER WATER. Drowning in debt, depression, pride, (craft supplies - LOL), something that has taken our focus OFF God.
Don't be like Peter and take your eyes off God and SINK into the rest of the world.
I pray that whatever you have in your life that seems to be holding you back, that God breaks you free from it. Walk in Faith, my brothers and sisters!
Love you all!
