"Fun, Inspiring Projects"...Come See

 Happy Friday, March 5, 2021

We are keeping busy with life and everything that comes with maintaining during this pandemic.  How many of you have received your vaccination(s).  My husband has taken his first and is waiting for the second.  I'm still on the list and as of this writing has not heard when my first one will be.  Still there are so many people who are hesitant about receiving the vaccination.  Now that Johnson and Johnson has come out with a one dose shot many more people will "arm up".  I was told that with some individuals it is not the vaccine that makes them anxious...it is the fact of getting a needle stuck in their arms.  I didn't know that so many people are afraid of needles.  I guess they will never have acupuncture done.

When you can't go to so many places to have fun, why not stay at home and craft.  That is what I've done except for going grocery shopping.  Here are some fun, inspiring projects for your view...enjoy!

Have you ever wondered why things don't go as planned.  You ask for assistance but never get what you want.  It doesn't come on your time.  Well, when you do some things that are according to God's plan, then things will begin to turn around.  Somebody out there knows what I am talking about.  YOU  WILL BEGIN TO HEAL!
In my Christian belief, faith in God will bring great strength to endure pain, heartache, disappointment, etc.  You must believe to receive. 
When was the last time you check your "integrity"?  What is it?:the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness; the state of being whole and undivided.  Integrity can be defined as aligning your conduct with what you know to be excellent. A person of integrity displays a principled dedication to values and beliefs. They always seek to reflect ethical standards and do the right thing regardless of the circumstances.  Biblical reflection on integrity: Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out. Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is crooked in his ways. The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.
I just don't make cards.  I do enjoy doing other types of crafts.  Here is a "spring tag".  When the birds started chirping and making homes for themselves, I took that idea and turn it into a project for your view.   See this again at https://www.wordartwednesday.blogspot.com 
This is one card, believe it or not.  It is what you would call an infinity or never ending card.  

Don't forget to wear your blue today.  Thanks for viewing.

"God Has Already Prepared Me For This Fight"

 Good Tuesday, February 2, 2021.

I'm thankful you are with me today.  Praying that everything is okay with you and whatever endeavors you are involved with.  There is always a goal that we are trying to accomplish.  Sometimes it works out and other times it doesn't...but don't give up.

You may think the topic I've chosen today is a strange one but it is not.  It is the title I heard on Sunday from the Pastor of our church.  I have been concentrating on this statement since then and I feel that it was for me and I shall embrace it.  There are things (physical, mental, financial, spiritual) that happens to us and sometimes we may throw up our hands and say "why me".  Well, why not you or why not myself.  God has already prepared you/me for what happens in your/our life.  You may not be aware of it when you are going through what you're going through.  There are times when we  think our looks, personality, education and income should protect us from certain crisis but darlings, they don't.  This pandemic we are having hasn't prevent any of those things in our lives to stop us from getting COVID.  These things in our lives haven't prevented us from getting sick or having a deadly disease that will take us out of this world.  No matter the situation, we will be able to endure and  withstand the challenge because God has already prepared us for the fight.  Greater is HE that is in you than he that is in the world.  The enemy is not as big as it seems!!!

Crafty things I have worked on since my last post:

I like to play with different dolls.  I used pieces from Dyan Reaveley.
