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!

Troubled Hearts

A question that has been popping up lately - Name something that holds you back. But in naming it are you speaking life into that problem and allowing it to become a crutch or does naming it give you power to pray and ask God to work in all things?  
In the past, it would have become a crutch, an excuse, something that grew into chains. Recently (as I have grown in Christ) it has given me prayer to say God, yes I worry about things but I am no longer going to let them hold me back. I want to be a warrior! I want to let my light shine. I am still working through finding my way. 
Praying today that you become a WARRIOR! You are amazing and wonderfully made! Created to Create!
Love you all!
