What wondrous love is this,
That caused the Lord of bliss,
To bear the dreadful curse for my soul.

When I was sinking down,
Beneath God’s righteous frown,
Christ laid aside His crown for my soul.

To God and to the Lamb,
Who is the great I AM,
While millions join the theme, I will sing.

And when from death I’m free,
I’ll sing His love for me,
And through eternity I’ll sing on.

This recent project turned out to be a great exercise in using photography in a header! It’s something I don’t tend to do as often, and I’m glad I got the opportunity to do it here. Lots of fun little details! This was a full design and transfer from Blogger to Wordpress. It was also quite an ordeal trying to get her domain name transferred to a different hosting account – everything’s a learning experience, right?

O Lord,

No day of my life has passed that has not proved me guilty in thy sight. Prayers have been uttered from a prayerless heart; Praise has been often praiseless sound; My best services are filthy rags.

Blessed Jesus, let me find a covert in thy appeasing wounds. Though my sins rise to heaven thy merits soar above them; Though unrighteousness weighs me down to hell, thy righteousness exalts me to thy throne. All things in me call for my rejection, all things in thee plead my acceptance. I appeal from the throne of perfect justice to thy throne of boundless grace.

Grand me to hear thy voice assuring me: that by thy stripes I am healed, that thou was bruised for my iniquities, that thou hast been made sin for me that I might be righteous in thee, that my grievous sins, my manifold sins, are all forgiven, buried in the ocean of thy concealing blood.

I am guilty, but pardoned, lost, but saved, wandering, but found, sinning, but cleansed. Give me perpetual broken-heartedness, keep me always clinging to thy cross, flood me every moment with descending grace, open to me the springs of divine knowledge, sparkling like crystal, flowing clear and unsullied through my wilderness of life.

I was interviewed over at Striving to Serve at Home for her recurring column, “Entrepreneurial Endeavors”, which highlights stay at home daughters and their home businesses. Go check it out!

I had a lot of fun coming up with this idea for Miss Meredith Alexander’s blog. She was such a joy to work with and I’m thrilled with how it turned out!

The Relevant Conference

Sarah Mae from Like A Warm Cup of Coffee is co-hosting this Christian women’s blogging conference in October 2010, and I was so glad to get the opportunity to work on the website! The design turned out quite lovely and feminine, don’t you think?

Oh my. How I’ve neglected my blog. It’s been five months since I last updated. Well, I’ve revamped the design and my website will soon follow suit, I’m ready for a de-cluttering. Moving back toward simplicity. I’m horrendously fickle when it comes to redesigning my own sites, I have probably re-done it twelve times. Which is why I decided to stick to something more simple, so changing it won’t be quite as complicated.

Well, let’s see… what’s happened since I last posted? I’ve been very busy with my family, my church, College Plus, and my part-time job. I’m a very optimistic person by nature, so I rarely have any reason to say anything other than I love life!

I’m halfway into my sophomore year of college, technically, and I’ve only been a College Plus student since July! I just love this program, it’s saved me so much time and money, and my coach is so sweet and helpful!

I still work at ‘Thimbles’ on the weekends, and I love it. It’s just so much fun to be around beautiful fabric all day – I get so many great ideas! Too many great ideas actually, I can’t sew fast enough to make everything I want to make! Plus, since I’ve gotten so busy, sewing is something I can only do every once in a while, but I love to do it. On the back burner right now I have a quilt, a top for myself, a dress for a little baby friend of mine, a scarf I’m knitting, a sweater I’m knitting, and boxes and boxes of fabric leftover that I haven’t decided how to use!

I have a few more things I need to get done, and then I need to get off of this computer for a while so I’ll go ahead and wrap this up for now.

If anybody is still reading this blog, God bless you!
