Normally my bible sits on my nightstand next to my bed but because I've been doing some Bible Art Journaling, it's been in the Command Center.
Needless to say, it's been awhile since I've read it. So, the other night, I pushed aside my art supplies and placed my NIV Mother's Inspiration bible on it. As always, I started my prayer before opening my bible. This time, I didn't have a specific prayer so I was just talking to God about the day and other things going on in our household.
Just a brief summary, my husband was aching and in so much pain from a tooth infection. Now this is going to sound really bad, but I had one pain pill left over from my foot surgery that I've been
So back to the conversation between me and God. I didn't even mention this in my conversation with Him prior to opening my bible, but lo and behold, this is the verse that God gave me to read and reflect on:
Command them to do good; be rich in good deeds; be generous and willing to share.
1 Timothy 6:18
HOW AWESOME IS OUR GOD! I laughed so loud and hard, I actually had a stomach cramp. Don't ever let anyone tell you, you cannot have a personal relationship with God.
I used watercolor pencils from CTMH to color in the image. Instead of a wet paint brush, I used a baby wipe to spread the colors. The stamp is from Rubber Paws. I handwrote a portion of the verse and underlined it. I used a black fine point BIC pen for the letters.
Note: Hubby did have an infection; dentist prescribed some penicillin, pain pills and anti-inflammatories. Oral surgeon extracted the tooth and all is well!
