Outstretched

Sunday's sermon was so moving! His outstretched hand reaches down to save us, and we need to stretch out our arms to him.  When we do we invite him to walk with us and work his power through us.  He is not a genie to work for us but loves us so much that he wants to come with us on our journey and work through us.

Won't you outstretched your arms today and walk with Jesus!

Blessings,

Jill

Faith Art Journaling class

We had such a fantastic time today at Trinity Baptist Church in Sun City Center today! They were all brave in trusting God to lead them in their art worship adventure.  

We plan on meeting again March 26th right before Easter and doing a page on the empty tomb.

Look at all those beautiful pages so full of color!

The Resserected King

Our church played this song Resserecting from Elevation Worship for the first time this Sunday.  It will be our main Easter song this year. I have not been able to get the lyrics out of my head and love every word and verse of this song.  I had to do an art worship page for it this evening.  Used watercolors and pencils. I hope you are as uplifted and inspired by the song as I have been. Blessings, Jill

Bold & Confident Faith

Hi Faithers!
This is a bold page and pray for bold & confident faith!  To go out into my world and share my story of Christ and what he has done for me!  The images are mostly stamps.  The letters bold & confident is a Hero Arts stamp set....the faith and love come from my Faith Art Stamps, lady and the heart flowers across the bottom are from Sparkle N Sprinkle.  I drew the heart in the background.  For the background color I used acrylic paint and a makeup sponge and added black splatters.  A Signo White Gel Pen was used for shadowing and a blue gel pen for the lettering color.

I pray that we would all have the boldness to proclaim our faith in Jesus and share his love and what he has done for us!

Artfully,
Jill

Trust the Lord

Hi Faithers,  This is my favorite verse...Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.  In all you ways acknowledge him and He will make your path straight.

I did an acrylic paint background and used the Faith Art stamps for the flowers and Pitt pens for the lettering.
Here is a quick video I did on this technique....and absolutely no bleed through.

Have a great Lord's day!
Blessings,
Jill

Oceans by Hillsong

Hi Faithers!  I love this song and have been wanting to journal it in my bible.  I did this page in Matthew, but think that I will have to do add to it to do more words....because there is so much more to the song than that one line.  Imagine a trust without borders!  That's deep......Spirit lead me! 
I was inspired by this print on Pinterest here.

I did the background with acrylic paint and a makeup sponge.  I put some paint on the sponge and worked it into the sponge on my craft mat til it was well worked in and not wet, then almost burnished into the page.  I was surprised at how transparent it was this way.  And it preps the page then since it is acrylic and the pen work did not bleed through.  I used my Pitt pen for the lettering.

Happy Day!
Jill
