PSC40 Isaiah 40:31

I've loved using scripture on my cards and layouts.  This week our challenge @ Perfect Sentiments is to use your favorite scripture or quote.

 Isaiah 40:31

but those who hope in the Lord
    will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint. 

Soaring on the wings of eagles-up above the world so high like an angel in the sky
Run & not grow weary-sail right thru and keep up the good fight
walk & not be faint-consistent to the end

To me it's an important promise from God-  No matter how bad our circumstances, whatever we're going thru-we can put our trust & hope in God. He's the one thing in this crazy world that will forever remain the same.

Sweet Hour of Prayer

In blogging this morning, I ran across Little Birdies Blessings. 
She's a great woman of faith.  She's talking about the power of prayer.

I think we forget sometimes the power God has given us in prayer. The bible says:

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
Matthew 21:21-23

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Romans 12:11-13

Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
1 Corinthians 7:4-6

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Ephesians 6:17-19

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Philippians 4:5-7

We ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love all of you have for one another is increasing.
2 Thessalonians 1:2-4 

Actually when I looked up the word prayer @ Biblegateway there were 154 verses that have prayer in them. I've only listed a few.

Abby has issued a challenge to spend time this week in prayer for others.  I'm taking it on.

I pray for a sweet lady, Tracy @   He Is Able.  She's very dedicated to praying for others.   

Please join us in praying with a heart like Jesus!

I will PRAISE the Lord!

Another great word art challenge this week.  The FREE Word Art is available to anyone.  It's a great way to encourage others and spread Christ's love to others.

This week our generous sponsor is Roben Marie Workshop
She has a huge inventory.  check her out!

I definitely wanted to focus on "with my song will I praise him".  I printed the song page from Little Birdie Blessings for my background.I heavily distressed the song page & the edges of the brown paper underneath.

I hope you'll join the challenge @ Word Art Wednesday.  I look forward to seeing what you create with God's word!

Little Birdie Blessings

When I checked out Abby's blog: Little Birdie Blessings I had to share it with you. She has the most amazing faith.  Her words and scripture that she shares is so inspiring.
I entered my canvas of Brianna-God's sweetest blessing.  My new granddaughter is so cute!
