Here is my submission for a challenge at my other store. The quickpage was made by me and is one of the sets you will find in the store. The journaling reads:
God before you I never felt I belonged. I was always looking to be excepted and loved in all the wrong places. I was held captive by my sinful nature and trying to find acceptance in ways that only brought hurt. I was raised in a Christian family, but I always thought I had to get my life straight first.
One day you reached out to me and revealed that you loved me despite how I fell short. Not only that, but you sent your son who died to set it all straight and that if I accept that he died for me. I would not only belong, but would be co-heirs with Christ as your child. This means freedom from doing things the way the world does, as it doesn't and didn't work. It also means I get to live eternally with you, my creator and loving Father.
I continue to live in freedom, but only as long as I give the authority in my life to you. Your Holy Spirit guides and shapes me into living holy, righteous, and obedient to your word. I pray that I am a light to others so they will want your freedom too.
