New Friend

Hello, this card is inspired by the sketch over at Seems a Little Sketchy challenge blog. They are sponsored by the wonderful Stretch N' Bubbles who are closing their digi doors at the end of this month! Sob! Here is one of my favorite SNB images! I have made this card with a friend of my children's in mind who just got her first kitten and is soooo enjoying her! I am entering this card in For Fun Challenges - NEW challenge.
I had lots of fun doing this card! I think that I'm really going to enjoy using sketches to help with the creative process! Have a Happy New Year!

Salvation FULL & FREE!

"But God commendeth his love toward us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life."

Romans 5:8-10

So what does this mean?

God proved his love for us, sinners, through the death of his sinless Son. This death was not accidental. It was sacrificial and necessary for the reconciliation of sinners. The penalty for sin is death. However, there is hope in Christ! His death on the cross paid the price for your sins and mine and brings forgiveness from and peace with God. Christ's resurrection and present ministry in heaven keep us saved. Once you have accepted this precious gift, you can never lose it! AMEN!

Have YOU repented, believed, and been reconciled? I pray that you have!
