A Bushel and A Peck.

Hi! Me again here to share with you a card that I made for a few different reasons. One is that I received this adorable image called Apple Market from Faith at From the Heart Stamps through the Freebie of the Month challenge. Another is that for my birthday my parents gave me this gorgeous doily frame stamp. Then my dear friend gifted me some wonderful crochet thread and matching buttons (along with other sweets). Also another sweet friend of mine gave me a set of new Spectrum Noir markers. Thus, I've put together a card with all of these elements as well as some of my favourite paper pads by My Mind's Eye. The inside is one of the sentiments from the FTHS set and it says I love you a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck. It is so sweet! This card is on the way to my beloved Mom for her birthday!

I'm sharing this card with From the Heart Stamps freebie challenge and Word Art Wednesday.

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!
