Faithbooking

Edith Schaefer, one of my favourite authors, states, “One of the ways we describe the unfolding of God’s will is by the observance of “signposts". Signposts are answered prayers or significant events, which prove to be pivotal in the direction of our day to day living….At each signpost is an awareness of God’s hand working behind the scenes, orchestrating a master plan and the gentle pointing of our family along a certain path to achieve His plan.”

In our busy lives, it is sometimes hard to build these "signposts" that Mrs. Scaefer speaks about, yet we are encouraged by God in Deuteronomy 4:9 to, “Be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen, or let them slip from your heart as long as you live.”

Faithbooking takes scripture, hymns, poems and uses them to inspire us. We respond by applying these thoughts to our own lives in journalling what our Lord God is telling us through these messages. We use scrapbooking and stamping as an art form, giving life and illustration to our prayers, thoughts and words.

Here's a poem and scripture that create my first Faithbook using Greenhouse Gala &reg Designer Series papers. I can't seem to get the order posted in the blog right, but the content is all there.
