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!

Memory from 2012

Thought of the day (From my Time Line on August 27, 2012) - Life is only a bad as you make it. Remind your problems who God is instead of telling God your problems. I have been fighting it but once I let go and let God, I am more at ease. He > i Thank you God for all You have done for me. I know I take my blessings for granted without returning my gratitude more often than I care to admit but You are always there to pick me up no matter how far I stray. No this does not give me the right to sin, but it gives me peace knowing that WHEN I mess up, You let me learn from my mistakes and move forward. I am nothing with out God. I hope everyone has a blessed day. Let your light shine!

As I read that on Facebook this morning, I knew I needed to share that memory. This was right after I had filed for divorce and God was working in my life to get me back to HIM.
God's mercies are new every morning!
I pray that you are refreshed with His unspeakable Joy! LOVE you all!
