Since it's a new year....

and i needed to refresh my look a little, i decided not to put a seasonal theme, but one that reflected how i am doing now. there are so many things GOd is pruning in me during this spiritual season and i know it is part of a long process of creating the "new, abundant life" He gave me 13 years ago. it hurts and hurts to get rid of the "old" me and being renewed day by day in my soul, but it's so necessary to become more like Him and to stay close to my Heavenly Father! did i mention this hurts...him pulliing out stinky weeds and uprooting parts of my life that have been there since "day 1"? i know He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness and i believe He does that each and every new time I come to Him with a saddened heart over things i've let "grow" up in my life, no one's fault but my own. so, this year will look different on my blog for that reason...only to reflect the goodness God has done in my life and the glory He will get over doing it in my life, no more and no less....you'll still great news on scrapbook stuff by the creations i make for my designers, but i hope in all the layouts i share this year to show you how God has been working on me!
