As a crafter I like to create things out of lots of different materials
.
I have the privilege of working with my friend Loretta on a card-making activity for our Women’s Retreat in a couple of weeks.
We’ll be working on all sorts of greeting cards to send out to friends and family, with the intention of sending:
Love
Joy
Peace in times of sorrow
Kindness
Faithfulness, as we often stamp Scripture sentiments on the cards that share God’s love
Gentleness as we develop relationships with others.
We send cards to express human emotions, joy, thanks, sympathy, humor, love and admiration. They allow us to connect on an emotional level with the people who have touched our lives.
Did you know that we are God’s greeting cards?
He created us out of love for the purpose of sharing His love, His joy, His peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
We were created to love Him and others.
He also created us to reflect His image in the way we care for the world and for each other.
Go out today and be God’s greeting card.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; Galatians 5:22-23
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11
