Learning New Things......It's Possible!


Greetings and Holykisses,

I'm smiling, as while I've been piecing together this photo collage, a Sister in Christ has been texting me and God's totally using her to speak His truth into my soul. goosebumps!

Some of you already know that I love to write and love to make things.
Well, last year I discovered putting the two together: Art Journaling. (Thankyou Sherry!)
It has been so much fun and it blows me away how God's word just explodes like a kaleidoscope not only on the pages of my book, but mostly in my heart!!!

While journaling the other day, I did some dreaming.
It took me back to over a year ago when I asked myself a raw question.
If it were possible, .... I would_________. (fill in the blank)
At that particular time, I filled in the blank with how badly I wanted to lose my extra weight.
I was so pained by it.
Then, when I finished, I wrote this verse:
With GOD all things are possible.
From that day on, I began to believe that with God's help, ... that dream of mine could come true. And it did. It wasn't easy, ... but it was possible. With God's help, I lost over 30 pounds.

So recently, while journaling, I found myself dreaming and journaled the same question.
My answer is to learn more about GOD through Art and to better express myself through collage and mixed media. I tell you I'm so excited! I feel like a sponge filled with paints of every color imaginable and God's word is just drenching my very being.
I don't know what will become of this dream.
But He does.
And I know He makes thee
impossible,
possible.

Have a great day!
Holykisses xoxo

Lea, I'm so glad for you. God truly does speak to us through art if that's how we were made, 'cause guess what? He's the greatest artist ever!! Look at His handiwork. I pray that this will be a new avenue of worship for you sweet girl and I look forward to seeing what you share. Maybe we'll have to do a swap soon. =)
