The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow

Ok....so I am not Annie...but I am JANNIE! And wanted to let you all know that I am feeling much better today. My arm still hurts -- but I am calmer and not so antsy about stuff. For those of you that prayed for me -- thank you so much. Sorry to give everyone a scare. I think the lesson learned is that dealing with the day to day "stuff" that comes our way is really important--cause it will just pile up and jump up and bite you in the butt at the worst time possible otherwise. *sigh* None of us like feeling weak or helpless and that was at the bottom of it all for me...I felt so helpless to make things better for Royce... The good news is that I am NOT really responsible for making things better for him...all of that rests in God's hands. I have placed it all back in the hands of God -- and that lifts a huge burden from my shoulders. I just am going to have to remember to NOT pick it up again. Easily said...harder to do -- especially when you love someone -- you just want to make it better for them. Again, thanks to my friends for your love and support. I am so grateful to have you in my life. Have a great weekend.

    I'm glad you're feeling better. You worried me!!!

    Our business is in God's hands right now too. Actually this month was our best month to date so we believe things are turning around but it has been scary. Aren't we blessed to have God to lean on and turn to? He will work it out for Royce. I know it.

    Love you!

    Hey Jann,

    So glad that you are doing better. I think it is awesome that you have placed everything back in God's hands. I know that is something I am really learning right now. Especially being back in school with 2 classes. Working fulltime and 3 jobs. Being married, having a home, and a dog. It is overwhelming to say the least. Plus I just got the total 839 posts I have had to read, look at, and respond to at least some in some fashion, but I have had to read them all and start some of my own plus all the other school stuff that goes along with it.

    So glad to see you tonite!

    P.S. please pray for us as we are seeking God's will on going on a mission trip this summer to Puerto Rico with the youth group. It would mean missing 6 hours of classes I need to take, putting me a semester behind. I know God can and will provide for the trip, but finances are a concern. Thanks!

    Later,
    Josh

"What? You Are Drawing and Painting In Your Bible?!?!?!"

This question was followed by the whispered question, "Don't you think that makes God mad? It's HIS WORD!"  Yes...let me introduce myself. Hi, I'm Jann and I am a Bible Journal-er! Since you have seen me draw on just about anything...you are probably not as surprised as my friend with whom I had this conversation. And just to be clear, I'm not poking fun at her - I think that I have had that exact same conversation with myself over the years of my personal study...because even though I have recently started painting in my Bible - I have written my heart out in the margins of many Bibles as I have dug into God's Word to learn everything that He has wanted to teach me. And I have often drawn small images to remind myself of a principle -- like the one I drew here at the end of the book of Genesis! Rabbit Trail : I felt that it ends rather abruptly - after we have studied all the things that happened to Joseph over the course of his life the final sente...

Free YouTube Easter Junk Journal Series

 Hey friends... Well the time has come to do more than just dip my toes in the water...I'm gonna actually start filming YouTube tutorials again...and I decided to go for a big project rather than something that wouldn't challenge me to go the distance. I am going to show you how to put together an Easter Junk Journal from start to finish! Oh yeah...I didn't decide to just show you how to make a tag...we are bringing out the big guns! 😁😁😁 Since it has been a while -- I will give you the link to my YouTube Channel . You will find the series in a playlist called Easter 2023...and it will be the newest video uploaded....on Saturday!

I am telling you about it now -- so that if you want to ...

Under His Wings

Image
 Everyone needs a safe place to go when they are afraid or in danger. Growing up in Texas, we learned at a young age that when the tornado siren went off, you stopped and headed to the inner most room of the house with no windows. If you were quick about it, you could also bring a pillow and a stuffed animal for comfort. The whole family would huddle until the storm had passed. That's not bad advice...for earthly storms...but hiding in a closet when you're facing life's trials doesn't real help much! I love the picture of God's covering and protection that we find in Psalm 91. It says He will cover us with His wings (or feathers) like a Mama chicken takes care of her chicks! When danger comes...all her brood hustle to get under her wings because she will protect them with her life. There is no safer place...in life, than under the protection of our Mighty God! I created this card and Bible page with the @sweetnsassystamps set called "Under His Wings." It i...
