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!

How can I help you?

God's voice is softly whispering - Do not forget who you are.
You are my child. I created you to do great things.
Each one of you will do great things according to YOUR OWN talents.
NOT according to your neighbors.
Why then are you troubled by trying to gain the approval of strangers or even friends?

We want to please EVERYONE. We don't like letting others down. It is hard when it comes to people we have been in touch with for more than a day.  We want to be what everyone wants us to be but we forget to be what God wants us to be.

I know that it hurts when people think less of me. For any reason. But I have come to the conclusion that God is who I truly need to worry about pleasing. I know that I can always do better and that is what I strive to do. I strive to do what God wants and what He has planned for me.

I pray that God releases you from the stress of being a people pleaser. Sometimes we need to step out of the rut and look at the road. What caused us to swerve from the road and end up in the ditch? 
I pray your road becomes clearer.
Love you all!
