Our All Sufficient God. I’m coming down to the wire on this one. But I’ve finished all my Faith Art journal pages for the Names of God, that I was doing this month. I wanted to get them finished and posted by the end of September, because October starts a new project. I’m cutting it close. Tonight I’m sitting in great heaviness, so I don’t have much to say. It is fitting that I am working on this page, as I’m leaning on and trusting in El Shaddai. My God is All Sufficient. He is Almighty. He is Over All…. Continue reading →

YHWH Shammah is our God who is there. In the good times and the bad times of our lives, He not only sees all but He is right there with us, every moment. We are never alone. He will never leave or forsake us. I will never leave you or abandon you. Hebrews 13:5 My main meditation was on Isaiah 41:10 (-13), a passage that I returned to many times over some of the hardest years of my life. Whatever I’ve gone through, every storm I’ve weathered, the scariest situations in my life, God has always been there. I’ve never… Continue reading →

YHWH Ra’a This isn’t the first time I’ve posted a Bible Faith Art page on our Great Shepherd. In fact, exactly 3 months ago, I posted a Bible Journaling page and YouTube video, to follow up an article I wrote on Sheep, Shepherds, and Wolves. A year ago I journaled through Psalm 23, for my He Restores My Soul course. Another journal page on YHWH Ra’a. So when God as Shepherd came up in an Online Faith Art Retreat on the Names of God this month, I had to think of a different way to portray this than I’d already… Continue reading →

YHWH Rapha There are so many ways we experience God as healer. YHWH Rapha has shown himself mighty in my life in so many ways. For my son who was on death’s door twice, when a baby/toddler, with a horrible prognosis, but now is 32 years old and healthy. Even when my baby daughter died 36 years ago, God granted me peace beyond understanding. For me personally, in healing betrayal (adultery) and psychological abuse-caused Complex PTS, the deepest wounds of the heart. There were so many ways I could have gone for this Faith Art journal page. I chose a… Continue reading →

What comes to your mind when you think about a father? Perhaps good but imperfect. Perhaps bad. If your earthly father, (or your children’s dad, or any other,) was loving, kind and good, it may have been easier for for you to see God’s love, care, and provision. If your model of father was negligent, abusive, or just pure evil, perhaps it was hard for you to trust God to be a kind, loving, caring, providing, good Abba. But Abba is not an earthly father. Who God as Father is isn’t determined by who we saw earthly fathers be. The… Continue reading →

Do you remember the old song, God’s Not Dead? “No! He’s alive!” YHWH, the I AM, the Eternal Creator and Ruler of all is a Living God, making Him far different from, and far above, all the false gods devised and worshipped over all time—who are all dead or never had any life. Even Emmanuel, God the Son, Who came to live among humans as a man, though He died as a human, He rose again to Life! We serve a risen Savior! El Chai (khy) is the Living God! This Faith Art Journal page is another from the Who… Continue reading →
