Gift Box Ornament 2014

The day one of Pause, Ponder & Prepare we were asked to ponder.

Let your mind wander to your memories of Christmas as a child, the excitement, lights, colors, etc.  How do you compare the anticipation you had about Santa and getting gifts with your anticipation of the coming of Jesus Christ?

While I was pondering this I thought about the excitement of waking up to presents under the tree.  This gift reminds me of the gift that Jesus has giving us.

I searched on google for a box template (many to choose from), cut it out of glitter card stock and glued it together.  I then wrapped with the ribbon, bow and a tag that said joy.  Joyful is how I feel knowing that I am redeemed and that the Lord has set me free. :)

Last night was the Trust Canvas Class with Adore Him Creations it was a fun night. 

As I sit there watching everyone they are quiet and a little distant.  By the end of class we are crying, hugging, smiling and enjoying everyone's creations.  In just a few hours we learn so much about ourselves and each other.  Best of all we learn where we are in our walk with trusting God.

When we trust God there is peace in your soul that is like no other.  You are filled with joy and happiness.  There is no room for fear. 

I am honored to be a part of this faithart revolution and that God has chosen me to help other woman to know they are not alone and loved.

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up (Galatians 6:9).
