(In) Courage - A Moment to Breathe - Day 151

Hello There!
I hope you are having a wonderful week.
In today's online class I worked on Day 151 in the 

So for today's page, I didn't really have a plan all planned out.
Do you ever have that happen?
You can hear all about it during the video.

Heather's Hobbie Haven - In Courage - A Moment to Breathe - Day151

2 Corinthians 9:7
Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Today's story is about being a cheerful giver.

We gathered in a circle to pray for the women who would be the recipients of the piles of donations collected.
We had all went to our closet and pulled out a few things from our overabundant supply.
Did we choose our favorite shirt, dress or handbag?
NO

We grab something's that wouldn't be missed and quickly forgotten.
Were we being heroic?
NO

Giving out of excess isn't the same as sacrificial giving.
Sacrifice is the act of surrendering something prized.

When it was my turn to pray, I spoke these words to the Lord.
"Forgive me for giving out of my abundance and then getting puffed up in arrogance about my good work. This act is not heroic. Refine me, Lord. Help me learn to give sacrificially".

Have you ever done something similar?
I know I have.
Today's story made me see things in a better light and to pray the prayer to do better.

Pitter Patter Rain Drops Water Coloring

Hey there!

I hope you are having a wonderful day!

I know I've started a bunch of new stuff on here lately but I personally want to learn some new stuff and thought maybe you would too.
It can be a learn together as we go experience.
Will everything always turn out?
Probably not.
But I'm ok with that as long as we learn something and move forward.

Yeah!

I really liked how session 3 page turned out using the card
as the design on my page.
Using the card design really takes a lot of the planning and worry out of coming up with something.
If I like the card why not use it.

So for today's page, I'm using the design on the front of one of the journaling cards.
I loved the look of the popsicle and dots.

2 Thessalonians 3:16
Now may the Lord of Peace himself give you peace at all times and in every, way. 
The Lord be with all of you.

Since I used one of the journaling cards there was no story today.

I have really enjoyed working in this devotional.
I loved the theme, colors, and fun it inspired.
It was the perfect theme for me this month.

Gouache - Woodland Bird

Hey there!

I finished up another Gouache painting in my sketchbook.

Today I used an image from

I'm not a drawer.
So for me, it's best to go find an image I like and trace it into my sketchbook.
I get to work on something I like and have fun.
So it's a win, win for me.
I love the fun whimsical image.
I think it turned out pretty cute!

(In) Courage - A Moment to Breathe - Day 144

Hey There!
I hope you are having a wonderful week.
In today's online class I worked on Day 144 in the 

I got the inspiration for today's page from
Ekaterina Smirnova YouTube Post
Autumn Alley
She did a beautiful watercolor lane.

Heather's Hobbie Haven - In Courage - A Moment to Breathe

Psalm 62:1
Truly my soul finds rest in God;
my salvation comes from him.

Today's story is about needing rest.

"Prison is starting to sound really good."
When I desert island, a hospital and prison start to sound like a vacation, you know you need to take a rest.
When you fill up every spare moment with things to do
you may not realize it's time for a day off.
Your husband will notice.
Your children will notice.

Taking regular time off is not a punishment.
It's a gift.
Maybe a break means a time to listen without the pressure to hear something profound;
a time to read without the pressure of learning something;
a time to receive without the pressure to turn the gift into something useful.

Just because you take a break from something doesn't mean you're resting.
Usually its a break.
Real resting is letting it all go and when you return you feel comforted in the midst of the same old routines.
It's rest for your soul.

John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you. 
I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Today's card is about peace.
God gives us the gift of his peace.
 A deep peace that doesn't compare with the "inner peace" that the world offers.
That means we can always draw from His gift of peace and learn to rest in Him.

I really enjoyed the front of today's card and decided to replicate it on my page today.
