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!

Do Unto Others....

How fitting - verse 12 - "Do unto others as YOU would have do unto yourself." Simple and yet difficult. 
How can I show love to someone who has broken my heart? Ask God...as His children, haven't some of our own actions broken HIS heart?  I become a pile of guilt and shame when I think of all I have done in my PAST. (a struggle - looking at my past with out HOLDING on to my past)  But just as my Heavenly Father, He only looks FORWARD to my return, my change, me becoming REBORN!
"Prayer should be free, spontaneous, vital fellowship between the created person and the personal Creator, in which Life should touch life. The more that prayer becomes the untrammeled, free, and natural expression of the desires of our hearts, the more real it becomes." - O. Hallesby
I pray that YOU follow the first of these verses - ASK, SEEK, GIVE, FIND! Much love to all of you!
