Scripture Challenge TREASURE

Hey, everyone!!

We've had a couple snow days back to back here and let me tell you...it really can throw your plans out the window! LOL Today Kadesia and Javan are playing well together. They helped me with my Cricut which I used for the first time ever today! I have played with other Cricuts before but my brother bought me one and I had never used it!! But now that I have, believe me it will get a lot of use! I am so excited!!! I guess I just didn't take the time to use it because I wanted to wait until I had a lot of time to mess with it. Since that doesn't seem like it's going to happen I decided I would just take a few minutes and cut out today's theme word for the Scripture Challenge. I loved it so much I made some flowers, too! I hope you will like the layout!
For those of you who don't know, the Scripture Challenge is from Patter's blog. I started it last year with my friends. You can see all the pages I have created when you click here. The pages I create are all 8½" x 11" and I store them in a large binder I purchased at Walmart. I have enough page protectors inside for each challenge so I was prepared before I started! LOL Things took up more and more of my time, then I was lingering over some of the challenges as the LORD was leading me and teaching me! It was so amazing!! So this year I decided to pick up where I left off and I have been doing that ever since!! Today's post is later in the day than I wanted but I am excited to share it with you.
The scriptures I used are:

Many of my very close relatives have passed away. Some dear friends have gone on that have left a legacy of love and faith. Each time another person leaves me, it's like a balloon floating into the clouds, part of my heart goes with them and I can tell you that I am storing up a LOT of wonderful TREASURE in Heaven. (Matthew 6:19-21) My friend Christina has encouraged me so much. She said that monetarily speaking God has shown us that we can live on very little and still make it. That is so true!! I don't go shopping for clothes or new stuff. We shop for groceries and the things we need. That is good! That is how it's supposed to be. I don't lack anything! God provides for me. (Prov. 15:16) I know that as long as I do what God says in His Word and live my life to please Him then I will be His treasure! (Exod. 9:15) I hope that my life is a witness to my family, my friends, to strangers and everyone I meet that my Savior is my TREASURE! (Matthew 12:35)

Hope you've enjoyed my blog post today! If you are snowed in, too, stay warm and stay safe! If you are warm and enjoying wonderful weather, soak up some sun for me!!! Take care!

Angel Hugs,
