I’ve been reevaluating this blog and the use of my time. I’ve been blogging less and less these days. Sometimes I feel like I’m being pulled in so many directions that I don’t have enough of myself to give. I feel exhausted at the end of the day. I love sharing crafty ideas with you. God has blessed me with talents and I greatly desire to use them, but is it to His glory or to mine? I know that the point of my life is to point to Him, but have I been doing that? I have kept that aspect of my life out of this blog, and I’m feeling convicted. He is my life. I want that to be visible in every facet of my life.
So, I will continue to blog, will continue to share craft ideas and hopefully begin to share more of my heart and my life with you. I won’t make promises, it may not be consistent, but it will be sincere.
Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet
toward home, a land that i’ve never seen
I am changing, less and less asleep
made of different stuff than when i began
and i have sensed it all along
fast approaching is the day
when the world has fallen out from under me
I’ll be found in you, still standing
when the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
when time and space are through
I’ll be found in you
You make all things new
You make all things new
You make all things new
You make all things
You make all things
when time and space are through
I’ll be found in you
lyrics from Shadowfeet by brooke fraiser
Therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold all things have become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17

Thank you for posting this. I have been following you for a while and love you ideas. I know now that I love your ideas because your creativity is inspired by God. I am also a Christian and it really blessed me what you said and challenged me to also remember that God always has to be the centre and the reason for my “doing”.

Thank you for your blog post. I have just started following your blog and feel a kindred spirit. The verse you posted is one of my most favorites. As well, I too love Jesus, Indian food, sewing and Death Cab is one of my favorite bands! Thanks for sharing your heart. Lindsay

It’s amazing how blogging can open up so many ways of meeting others, and finding that there ARE other people like you out there. Sometimes I begin to wonder, and then I find a new blog or a new reader and it’s like “oh yeah, I like that too, and that and that…”. Thanks for sharing. You apparently have very good taste, lol!!

Ive been following your blog for a while but I don’t think I have ever commented. I love all of the cute ideas and crafts you do. I also have been struggling to keep up with my blog lately and sometimes I wish I had been more consistent about sharing my faith on my blog from the beginning. Thank you for sharing… its always encouraging to see that others are in the same boat
