Stand Out

"Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever."
1 John 2:15‭-‬17 NLT

It's so easy to get caught up in the stuff. To want to belong and do what everyone else is doing. But as believers we need to step back and realize we are not of this world. To pray about where we belong, where we are to stand out, maybe even speak out and live our lives differently.

This is a place I'm really look into our lives and asking where or who are seeking the approval of?  In things, in places, in people? Or are we truly putting our hearts into pleasing the Lord?


ART TALK
This page is just adorable with the Flamingo. So fun to create. I started by using the stamp set to stamp the words and the flamingo. Then watercolored the sky and grass in. Colored in the flamingo with a few layers of pink watercolor so it was more vibrant. Added the leaves to the top and colored those in. Used the atexture Tiles 2 to add some fun texture to the page. Such a fun set to create with.


Blessings,
Colleen
