Be Joyful

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in EVERYTHING by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the PEACE OF GOD, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-7

These are verses I memorized years ago and they are written on my heart. There are times when I still need to remember not to be anxious, but I eventually listen to my heart saying these verses. I didn't really understand what the "peace of God" was until I experienced it. It's having peace inside you, even when you're going through heartbreaking situations and trials. It does "surpass ALL understanding" and you know it comes from GOD alone. Praise the Lord for His wonderful promises!


I love, love, love what I do. I am passionate about the things I create and the talents God has placed in me. I SO appreciate the time you take to look at my things and the comments you all leave me!

Blessings to you!

Best Wishes Woodsy Scene


Happy Wednesday!

I'm back again with another card using the Woodsy Wonderland Collection from Heartfelt Creations!




This time I used the Woodsy Wonderland and Woodsy Critters Sets and the Pampered Pooch Set for the sentiment. These sets are so much fun putting together to create scenes with!

Make sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see what all the other designers have come up with for you!

I'm submitting this to the following challenge:
