His Kingdom Come Book Club - The Creative Call

Well, I was keeping up so nicely and then life hit full on and I got all sidetracked! I've been doing the reading and writing some in my day book, but since Chapter 3 haven't managed the exercises. Partially because of the time factor and the way I'm feeling - I want to take it seriously and really think about what I write for each exercise, and partly because some of them have me scratching my head lol!
I'm loving this book though! I'm also finding that a lot of it is coming together what the weekly Take Me Deeper Devotionals and really providing so much inspiration and food for thought!

Anyway, I had an hour this morning and managed to create two pages that will face each other when I have all my pieces made into a photo book :) It will be filled with my writings - something to hand down to the girls!

As always, for consistency, stash used is by  Createwings Designs.

His Kingdom Come - Book Club - The Creative Call

Two more pages using writings from my morning quiet sessions!
The second is about my daughter. Although it was just a simple and seemingly unimportant event, when I thought about it symbolically, it was a bit of a wow moment!
The story behind this is that my daughter (18) is, at the moment, taking on responsibility for planning our family meals, writing up a weekly menu, ordering the food from the supermarket (we pay lol!) and cooking it (she loves cooking and baking!).
So, she had planned for a certain day that we would have a BBQ up on our patio, under the big tree. Well that day dawned and it was grey and windy and even rained and the weather didn't improve all day! I was game for the BBQ but hubby, tired after work, really didn't want to go and sit outside!! But my daughter was determined and buoyed us all up, insisting it would be fine! 
Right as we all went outside to go and light the BBQ and set up the table...the sun came out! It got warmer, despite being evening time, and we sat out there for a good couple of hours, enjoying the food and the company! We had fun and hubby was visibly more relaxed when we finally came in about 8.30pm! Almost all the time we were out there the sun was shining! 
So this is what I wrote and will be the facing page to 'Silence' - I hope to put all these in a photo book at the end of the year - hence the same b/g design! Stash used is from Createwings Designs.

His Kingdom Come Book Club - The Creative Call

I joined the Book Club at His Kingdom Come - you can find details and where to sign up HERE!
We're reading and working through a book called The Creative Call and started Chapter 1 on Monday (4th May). It's very thought provoking and I'm feeling very inspired already!

I won't be blogging everything I create but I made this page for the Digital Faith Art Weekly Challenge this week and it uses the words at the start of Chapter 1 of the book! You can find the Challenge details HERE! - as usual there's gift from Hummie of a gradient this time! It's a great technique to learn!

I'm using stash from Createwings Designs for my Book Club pages.

TFL!
