Enduring Word Bible-Faithfulness


 Enduring Word Bible #51
Joshua 24:15
"But as for me and my house, 
we will serve the Lord."
This verse might be familiar as a herald
 of a household set apart in this world. 
A rally cry after a covenant renewal.
I really like to add the earlier verse with this-
"Now therefore fear the Lord and serve him
 in sincerity and in faithfulness." v. 13
Because God has been faithful.
I saw this Scripture verse sitting on the windowsill
 when I arrived at a daughter's house yesterday.
This caused me to go back and ready this story.
And when you see the art teacher daughter 
has cut celery ready for printing--
well.....
tried Distress Ink-
 Festive Berries
Worn Lipstick
and then colored in with 
pink colored pencil.
Also used a stamp from His Kingdom Come.

The story ends with the people of Israel
 marking the spot where they
 have witnessed to each other their 
"faithfulness to the Lord" promise.
 I guess that is what these words signify
 set in our houses for all to see.
Part accountability and 
Part reminder.
May we all pledge with sincerity
to serve the Lord.

Supplies:
Tim Holtz Distress Ink
Colored pencils
Washi tape
Kingart Watercolors
His Kingdom Come stamp-
(no longer available)

celery stalk stamp
(dated this entry a day later- 
not sure why-
 but I am ahead a whole day in my mind)
