I didn't use to pray novenas. I always thought that praying directly to God was better. But I read this passage from the Bible: "The continual prayer of a just man availeth much." - James 5:16 I thought of the matter more and now I see that novenas are a humble way of praying. It is asking those closest to Jesus (and holiest) people who walked the earth, to pray for me. This is not a new way of doing things as Moses intervened for the Jews when God wanted to punish them for making a bull with their own hands and started worshipping them.

ReplyDeleteamen girl..sometimes I end up bawling, sometime the peace that transcends all understanding just washes over my entire being...
oh,,,I could go on and on..lol.

I LOVE praying scripture and personalizing it with my family's names...
Blessings.

ReplyDeleteHi Calej!
ReplyDeleteJudt beautiful, and so creative, I would have never thought to put these on my phone! I just love it when we see God's creativeness and how each of us is unique and wonderfully made.
I have a Nokia phone, do you have a tutorial for how to put them on and where? and Yes! keep making them.
Be blessed today,
Margaret
I love your verses and your site is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove all of these, but especially the first one--"We are MORE than conquerors, through Him that love us." How can we even begin to think of defeat when we have those promises?
ReplyDeleteI especially love that first one--so very encouraging as we seek to follow Him. You have a great idea--my phone is too old! But for those that can, it is a nice idea!
ReplyDeleteYour art is wonderful and especially so including the scriptures. A wonderful idea. Thank you.xx
ReplyDeletewow, ganda!
