How many times have we told out kids, "be brave, you can do this...", etc?  I know I have said this and have had my parents tell me this too. But why? Because when we are brave, we can go on. It is that simple. When we are brave, we are effective. But let's take it a step further. When God tells us to be brave, what is He really telling us? He is telling us to have the courage to face difficulty, pain, danger without fear. Why? Because He promises us that He will be with us. We don't to face situations in life without Him. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 There is a wonderful blog post that I encourage you to hop over and read. Sister Liz did a wonderful break down of Joshua 1:9. I pray that it ministers you as much as it did me.

So after looking at pictures in the couple of Facebook Journaling groups I am in, I decided I wanted to use Washi Tape on my Bible chapter pages. Here are a couple of photos of what I did. I grabbed all the Washi Tape I could find in my drawers. Then on the first page of every chapter, I adhered the tape to the end, and I wrapped it to the other side. There was a quarter inch space, so I decided to use the Distress Markers and do some wording to fill in that space. Then, I punched out a couple of scallop circles that I folded in half to make page tabs. I wanted to be able to find all the journal pages quickly so I think this is a fun way to keep track of them. Lastly, I used my Distress Markers and free handed a couple of flowers and the name of my "journey".  Overall, I think it came out fun and colorful. Thank you for stopping by and God Bless,

A PURE HEART Welcome again to my new journey which includes this new blog, A Pure Heart of Worship. In my first post I explain how I came up with the blog name and what the new year and God has birthed in my heart. This is going to be my year of Him and me together along with using talents like crafting just another way I can get to know Him more and worship Him. Click on "The Journey" if you would like to check it out. For my first entry, I wanted it to explain what the purpose of even starting the journey is. This is not just a hobby like scrapbooking and cardmaking is. No, this is a life change. It is the desire I have to be closer to God. One way that I can do this is through Art Worship. So let's get started and remember, this is my first time ever so I am learning as I go. Hopefully what I learn will inspire you.  So let's get started and remember, this is my first time ever so I am learning as I go. Hopefully what I learn will inspire you as I share these techn...
