The Gospel and My Little Pony

From the front, she's cross-eyed

While playing with Eden in her room yesterday:

“Eden, what are you playing with your ponies?”

“They are at school.”

“Oh, really?  What are they learning about?”

“They are learning about God.  They’re learning how to obey God.”

“Oh, great!  Make sure you tell them that they can’t obey God on their own.  They need God’s help to obey!”

“Well, they can obey a little bit.”

“No, they can’t.  Not by themselves.  Not deep in their hearts.”

“Oh, that’s sad.”

“Well… yes… until you remember that we are all the same!  We all need Jesus!”

“Oh, Okay!”

Praise God that he knew our hopeless state, and sent his Son to meet our disobedient, prideful hearts right where they were!  Praise God that he died for our sins, enabling us to be forgiven and obey, something we could never do alone!  And praise God for play time and opportunities to share the Gospel with little girls who, like me, want to try to obey all on their own!

Halloween D.T.

Yet another month of designing for Mystic Paper!  What  a treat it is each month to see what goodies I will get to play with.  Here is September’s offering:

An assortment of Jenni Bowlin Halloween papers, including a 3×3 grid piece of paper that can be folded into a mini album! (Video HERE )  Except… Well, let’s just say I had a few ‘reservations’ about the technique used to make the mini album and I felt the need to improvise a bit.  I think the overall effect is the same, and the paper is really fun to work with.  My other assignment is ‘My Choice’, and I can’t wait to get started!

Make sure you jump on over to Holly and Sheri’s blogs to see their materials for the month!  Also, Holly is having a giveaway in honor of her new ETSY shop, don’t miss it!!!
