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!

Obey


As I was reading this today, I struggled with do I correct the mistake (words fall out of the frame) or do I just leave it?  So I left it. Why you ask (knowing that Obsess, Create, Distract was setting in)? For just that reason...why do we obsess? Because we THINK we are in control. We CREATE because God created us. But we are DISTRACTED by too much (yes I try to unplug and God paves that way by causing the floor to shake and my phone to fall off and into the tea I was steeping for my mom. Yes phone got dried off in time, but it caused me to unplug when I didn't especially want to let it go.)
I pray that you UNPLUG more. It isn't a good idol to have. And yes I said IDOL because it gets in our way of worshiping GOD and spending time with HIM.
Love you all!
