The Heart Collection

As many of you know, I will be having open heart surgery in May to repair a birth defect that didn’t get fixed during my first surgery 45 years ago.

We’re expecting Allan and I will have at least one month with no income as I recover, while having additional costs with the surgery and week long hospital stay in Omaha, and medical bills.

While I’m waiting for surgery, I’m not supposed to be working too hard, but thankfully designing is not too strenuous. And so…I’ve been designing! I’m excited to debut “The Heart Collection” (see what I did there?), with Prayer/Gratitude Journals, vinyl stickers, wood signs. Still in design mode are encouragement cards.

This collection is something I’ve been brainstorming and thinking about for months, and finally getting to design the new products over the last few weeks has been so fun AND therapeutic.

“The Heart Collection” is the first of at least three new series of products I’ll be releasing in 2023, and every sale will help with my Heart Surgery fund. If you can help by sharing my Facebook page, Instagram, and sales pages, I would appreciate it more than I can say. My hope is that these products can be used to encourage others and bring glory to God, while also helping us get through what’s coming!

Stay tuned for more!!

No Fear Friday – John 14:27

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

It’s not been the most peaceful week, anywhere.

But God promises… Jesus promises… we can have peace. HIS peace. He left it here for us, he gives it to us when we need it. And the peace is for always. It’s not a one-time gift or something that can be taken away. We don’t have to be worried or afraid because HIS PEACE is with us and in us.

It sounds easy. And in some ways it is. For me, it’s about focusing. Meditating. Remembering. I can’t create peace within myself on my own. But I can have HIS PEACE.

And I can have no fear.

No Fear Friday – Joshua 1:9

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

Be strong. Be courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.

Why?

Because the Lord God will be with you wherever you go.

Wherever. Whenever. Always.

He starts with the commands, and tells you why it’s easy to obey it.

So, be strong. Be courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.

He’s WITH you. Wherever.

No Fear Friday – Psalm 94:19

“When my anxious thoughts are many, Your comfort delights my soul.”

It’s been a rough couple of weeks, literally everywhere. I’m sure I’m not alone with anxious thoughts. Thank God for his steady, faithful presence and his unchanging comfort.

No Fear Friday – Psalm 23:4

“Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me”. Psalm 23:4 ​​​​​​​​

One of the things I love about the Bible is that no matter how many times I’ve read a verse or passage, sometimes something will jump out and it’s like reading it for the first time. That happened this week with Psalm 23. I have probably read this Psalm hundreds of times, maybe thousands. And I even memorized this Psalm as a kid, but using King James Version. I read it this week using the NIV translation, and it just read differently – especially with my “no fear” focus.

In the King James, it reads, “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil“. We have had a lot of death and grief in our family over the course of my life, and I think I always connected with the “valley of the shadow of death” part of the verse. It spoke to me. Felt familiar to me. Comforted me.

And then this week, reading this passage in the NIV, I stopped when I read verse 4. “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil”. The “darkest valley” just jumped out and read differently to me.

We’ve been through a lot of valleys lately. Life is hard. Raising kids is hard. Marriage is hard. Finances and running a business and covid and church and friend relationships and…. it all can be so hard. And sometimes, the hard phases of life feel like deep, dark valleys. There is always light off in the distance, but those dark valleys.. man, they bring fear and anxiety and alone-ness.

But God, through David in this Psalm, reminds us that even though we have to walk through the dark valleys, He is there. We don’t have to fear.

And I have to mention the rest of the verse. We don’t often like to talk about “evil”. It’s a word we avoid, but the evil is exactly why it’s so hard. The whole point of the evil one is to separate us from God and make it hard. And yet. God is with us. We don’t have to fear the evil. We don’t have to fear the dark valley. The overwhelming anxiety of the hard times. The dread of what is happening… or not happening. God’s rod and staff – his shepherding hands – are there to comfort us.

Are you sensing a theme yet, with all these “No Fear” verses?

This week’s scripture is a phone wallpaper, as always. I set it up as a free download when you sign up for my email list. Starting next week, if you are on the email list, you’ll get the wallpaper in your email. But for this week, you can sign up below to be added to email list and get the download!
