Your support of this blog is much appreciated! I know what you're thinking... "she can't stick with anything." It's been several days since I posted here and this was supposed to be a month filled with daily images from my Bible. I need you to know that I have tried really hard to keep up - even having several posts drafted ahead of time - but posting daily just doesn't fit well with my life and my schedule. I change my mind a lot, I'm spontaneous, my job is unpredictable and I have children. I don't mean for those to sound like excuses, but they are the reality with which I am dealing. I don't want to feel forced to ...

Children of God

Your support of this blog is much appreciated! "But to all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God. John 1:12" Some days, I don't have as much time to spend in Bible study and reflection and on those days I often rely on the Jesus Calling app or the She Reads Truth website to provide a little inspiration. I loved this verse and didn't have anything journaled in the beginning of John, so I decided to add another simple page that would be easy for you to recreate. I didn't edit the video in any way {please forgive any long pauses}, so you can see when I changed my mind ...
God’s Will for Me is Good

Your support of this blog is much appreciated! The Point A few weeks ago in my Beth Moore study, there was a page that just got to me in every way possible. I highlighted almost all of it, wrote so many notes in the margin that I might never begin to decipher them and put a little flag at the top of the page so I could find my way back to it easily. At the time I wasn't sure where all of those thoughts were going, but just like the Good God that He is, He brought me right back there today {well, yesterday}. Believe it or not, it was right there in 2 Samuel 7 {again} where He was beating me over the head with His word. ...

Your support of this blog is much appreciated! I don't know about you, but I like any and all things related to organization and paper products. Especially if I can figure out how to tie them back to Bible Journaling. I had been keeping notes and slips of paper in the back pocket of my Bible cover for weeks at a time, but what I really needed was a way to keep them all together and in order. Sometimes it is several days {or weeks!} before I can add my sermon notes to the margins of my Bible and I needed to keep up with them for reference until then. Enter these Free Printable Sermon Notes and the cutest binder you ever did ...
Word vs. Words

Your support of this blog is much appreciated! The Point Believe it or not, we are still sitting squarely in 2 Samuel 7. There are so many little nuggets of truth to be found here! We're going to move down to verse 28, which reads: "And now, O Sovereign Lord, you are God, and your words are true, and you have promised this good thing to your servant." We talked a little bit last week about making the shift between our plans for God and His plans for us, but today we're going to talk about His words. Look at what that verse says -- it says his words are true. TRUSTWORTHY. Beth Moore says, "We can know we've come 'thus ...
Everlasting Love: Bible Process in Photos

Your support of this blog is much appreciated! I had something completely different planned for today, but as I was working in my Bible last night I had a change of heart. I thought it might be better for you to see the clear steps that I take to complete a page. I used almost all of the same supplies from the Who Am I page, but took photographs of each step so you can see how I layer the supplies to get the finished look. Pencil Sketch First up is the pencil sketch. Using an inexpensive mechanical pencil, I drew a very light sketch of the verse I wanted to illustrate. Once I have a very general drawing on the page, ...
Who Am I?

Your support of this blog is much appreciated! Now that I've shared several posts about what Faith Journaling is and how to get started, I wanted to approach it from a more practical place. I don't always work from the same Bible Study -- I'm bad about being in the middle of several studies all at once -- so the days may or may not build on one another as we move forward. I'm six weeks into Beth Moore's David study and there is so much good on the pages of her workbook that I'll probably share many pages from 2 Samuel. We are also in the midst of a wonderful series at our church and I love reading short devotional guides ...

When people see my Bible for the first time, I almost always hear "How did you do that?!" followed by "Where did you get your Bible?" and "What supplies do you recommend?" I shared a video of My Favorite Journaling Supplies way back in March, but I had only been journaling for a few weeks and still had so much to learn! Now that I have been actively illustrating my Bible for almost nine months, I wanted to share an updated list of supplies. It ...
