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!

So much for the Resolution/ changes

Boy did I goof up trying to give myself a plan for this blog!  LOL!  I really wanted to try to keep up with it and blog at least every other day.  So much for that!  Today is an ok day!  I am still in a contemplative stage because I know I need to change but unsure of the direction of this change.  UP down RiGhT or LefT.
I am trying to get my head wrapped around my job.  I was given a 3 month probation.  Seems I am not doing everything to their liking.  Well you can't force people to come to your meetings but I am going to give it my all and that is all I can do.  I hope everyone has a blessed day!

Resolutions?

Oh boy, it is already January 5th and if I had made a resolution it would have already been broken.  I decided not to make a resolution but to make a dedication.  I am going to dedicate each day to be good no matter how I feel physically, mentally or emotionally.  I am going to dedicate to writing in my blog daily.  I am going to dedicate to stay planned at work and not become frazzled.  I am going to dedicate my life to following God and spreading His Light and Love.
I know there will be days that I miss and there will be days when I write the "War and Peace" of posts.  Here is my post plan for 2012:
Make it Monday - Share a DIY that inspires my soul and hopefully moves yours in the process.  It may be a simple hour project to a week long project.
Thankful Tuesday - Share an act of kindness with my friends.
Words of Wisdom Wednesday- Share words that inspire, motivate, encourage or delight my friends.
Tasty Thursday - Share a nutritious recipe.
Freebie Friday - Share freebies from other sites.
SheSpeaks Saturday - Posts from my blog with SheSpeaks.com
Spiritual Sunday - A day of rest and relaxation - through pictures, words, or music.

I hope you will join me on this new adventure!  Remember that what was once broken is now reborn!

Love you!
