One of my favorite places to be

I'm working on a layout from our San Diego vacation--our last day when we went to the beach, but I haven't finished it yet, so I thought I'd share one from last Christmas when my sister and her family were out here. I blurred some faces cause I don't have permission to post their pictures (and it's a little late now to get their permission, lol!). This is one of my all-time favorite layouts. The design works so well with the photos. There's a lot of journaling, but I'm just too lazy to write it. Going to the beach in the winter has such a different feel to it. I enjoy it.

I really like the fact that you can use multiple photos; purple paper (recolored) from Iron Orchid Designs; Hand Stamped Alpha by Michelle Coleman at Scrapartist.com; brush that I used to make the vertical design is from MissM "Doodle" brush set; sand is just a photo I took that day; Font: AnotherHand, Jane Austen

Nehemiah: Sheep Gate (Symbolism)

By Carmela
hubpages.com http://www.prayfordetroit.com/ As I mentioned in my Nehemiah  post, God has nudged me this summer to study Nehemiah in depth because He has some things He wants to show me.  I am just starting Chapter 5, and I must say it is so exciting and interesting. I have to admit, though, that when I got to Chapter 3, it just looked like one of those boring chapters: it gave all the boring details about each section of the wall of Jerusalem that was being rebuilt, and gave countless names of the people who rebuilt each section.  I was going to skip it and move on to Chapter 4 when I felt the Lord nudge me to look deeper--that there was something here that He wanted to show me.   So I dutifully sought the Lord (and a research book, and the internet!) , and was ASTOUNDED at the incredible layers of symbolism in the names of the gates!  It has turned out to be my favorite chapter so far.  :)  God is incredibly amazing, huh?   The big picture that He has shown me so far?  Eve

Your "Fairy-Tale" Life

By Carmela
Your life may not look like a fairy tale, and it may certainly not FEEL like a fairy tale, but I am going to attempt to prove to you today that your Christian walk parallels a fairy-tale life.  😊  Initially, this may sound almost blasphemous to you, but I am so certain that I received this directly from God.  I pray that it encourages you to believe that God is working in your situation whether you see evidence of it or not.  He is such a good God, and such a big God.  😊 First, I would like to start with the main points that a speaker made at a Girls Ministries camp that I attended a few weeks ago, which were the springboard for what God revealed to me. • It took a lot of courage for Cinderella to respond to the prince’s invitation to the ball because of how her family made her feel. • It also took a lot of courage for Mary to obey and follow God’s plan for her life. • If we agree to follow Jesus and accept His invitation, and keep our eyes on Him, He will take us on a beau
