First Bible Journal Entry

This is my first one - other than the cover and I quite 

like how it turned out. 

I used regular enamel paints and alpha stickers I had

in my stash. The banner tag is a design from Penguin Eight.

Head on over to Illustrated Faith  as they have an amazing site

for faith and journaling inspiration.

I chose this verse - well actually it chose me - I use an Oswald Chambers

devotional - My Utmost for His Highest that a dear

friend gifted me. On that

day the verse was Hebrews 11:8. I just love what it said and 

felt compelled to  not only highlight it in the margin

as well as the verse.

The version of the devotional I have was written in the early

19th century so there is an English language

issue that I either look up in the dictionary or on line where

they have a contemporary version that helps with the translation.

I also have a different Bible translation that comes in

handy as well.

I have to admit it was really hard to get started - because its the Bible after all.

But once that first dab of paint hit, it opened up the creativity and

it became easy to highlight and pray over.
