This month I have finally started reading the "Bible in a Year" I bought at Spring Harvest three years ago! I gave up waiting for the new year and then forgetting all about it and just started with the first reading. Every day there is about 1/2 hour's worth of reading from the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs - a consecutive section of each for every day. But there is also each day one verse highlighted which you are supposed to learn by heart (an effort I'm skipping!) and "meditate on". And this gave me the idea of extending my meditations into a scrapbook page for each verse, so that I will still be able to remember what I have been thinking later on ... and so my Faithbook was born...
All these pages are digitally done, based on kits from Club Scrap and masks mainly from Bouille. Further credits are given below each layout.
