His Holy Name Challenge #2

This challenge came out on January 18th and I just now got around to doing it! Life has been crazy.

Here's the link to Patter's page about this challenge:

His Holy Name

This challenge was God is Sovereign- meaning He IS. There is nothing greater than Him.

I used the verse from Isaiah 25:8 to illustrate my tag:
“The sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove the disgrace of his people from all the earth.”

I used the colors Black & White on purpose. God is either sovereign, or He isn't God. Clear cut. Simple.

But, God loves his children... think about the act of a "dad" wiping away the tears on His son or daughter's face. Total gentleness. Love, concern, and caring is there. As God, He can do ANYTHING or not... but here, Isaish talks about how He CHOOSES to wipe away our tears.

Hope you play along... you can start at the most recent week's challenge and go from there!

Enjoy!

Holy Name Challenge #1

This was my "take" on the first Holy Name Challenge...

Patter @ Triple the Scraps will list a name or attribute of God every other Sunday.

Then, we find a verse or song lyrics that speak to us personally about that name or attribute.

Holy was the first attribute.

God is Holy- he is pure, unblemished, blameless.

After praying and looking around, I came (pretty quickly) about this verse in 1 Peter.

1Peter 1:16 "for it is written, 'Be holy, because I am holy.'"

It's very simple and straigtforward. After deciding that I would do a series of tags, I printed off the verse onto photo paper, brayered some ink over it, matted it, and put it on a piece of CM pp. the flowers are random..

On the back of the tag I've dated it and written out what I feel like is important about this verse.

You call us to *be* holy- don't try, attempt, or even succeed. Just *be*. As You are... to do that, I must *be* Christlike, be filled with the fruits of the spirit, be known as a follower of Jesus. Be Holy!

Enjoy!
