he's got the whole world in his (big) hands

God. is. good.

i've been doing just normal things lately... and i just love seeing God at work in the "normal" things. i don't know. i think it's just something going on in my own heart, maybe.

i'm just feeling blessed.

and i'm feeling like there's something new that's going to happen. something that i'm going to have to trust God with (and so will my husband, because we're in this together!). i don't know what this means, but i like it.

i know, this has really nothing to do with the purpose of this blog. but i figure maybe sometimes those of you who support me in this earring venture want to hear my heart!

i don't know what's in store for these earrings. i don't know what's in store for crisis pregnancy centre. i don't know what's in store for my life, even, past the next month or two. isn't that exciting? it just reminds me to give it over. over to God. as i'm writing this, there's a show on tv about the beginning of the earth. or what some people believe was the beginning of the earth. and i'm just happy that i don't have to hold that world in my hands. i'm glad that we've been given brains to use and the freedom to question the things around us. but, even though i don't know all the answers (or even pretend to know), i know that God's in control. God knows all the theories going around about the creation or evolution of his world. i have my own beliefs on that. but i'm just glad that HE. has. the. world. in. HIS. (big). hands.

i'm glad it's not me.

so, with that in mind, i'm glad he's got my world in his hands. and my future. and my past. and my present.

and i like it.

today's journal entry

lord, may this be pleasing to you.

may this bring glory to your kingdom, and further it as well.

lord, i want your will to be done.

i pray that by selling these earrings, little lives will be saved. these unwanted babies are so precious to you.

i can see your hand in this ministry and my desire is to join you in it. help me follow your lead in this.

i pray that i will give you the glory and praise and i won't accept it for myself.

i. am. incapable. of anything without you.

be glorified.

WOW! i'm so excited about where this is going!

thank you to everyone who is also investing in this endeavor of mine. for buying earrings (for yourself or for gifts), for praying for me in this and especially for cpc, and just for encouraging me by giving me good feedback! you. are. awesome.

busy lady...

hey all! just a little message to remind you that i'm still here! i've been meaning to post for the last week already, but it's been quite busy. finishing orders, working (not on earrings), and other things that take life over! good things, just busy things.

i hope to post more earrings/pendants tonight. i've made a few more over the last week, so i hope to share them with you!

i've also found a wonderful little shop in winnipeg called diva beadz. so, this last week i went there to see what they've got, and it's so cute! friendly owners (i believe it's a mother/daughter thing). i met one of them, debbie. friendly, sassy, and knows a lot about jewellery! loads of beads, some wire, shells, and even jewellery that they've made that you can buy. they've got some beautiful jewellery. anyway, off for now, but i'll be back tonight!

thanks for your patience!
