This page is really inspired by those hassles. I've been praying about one thing in particular for a long, long time and I've sometimes been tempted to give up asking God for a solution..... But I never have given up because Jesus said quite clearly to ask and the word He used means to KEEP ON asking and then, He says, you SHALL receive. So that is what I have been doing and there are signs that a solution might, just possibly, be in sight at last though there is a long way to go yet. God is faithful and hears our every single prayer and He answers at the right time and in the right way, whatever that might be.
Here is my art journal page. Since the title is How Many Times I used my yummy new Mini Numbers stencil from The Crafters Workshop which was perfect for the current challenge at Country View Challenges which is 'Numbers'.
I started off by scraping a couple of different yellows all over the page and then stenciling a houndstooth pattern, yes another new stencil from TCW again and I love it!
Then I stamped the text and stencilled the numbers:
Have you been praying for something and not had an answer yet? Don't give up, but keep on asking! God is faithful and He WILL answer.

Susan, my friend! I believe His heart is for you to be intimate with Him about ALL things, like you said, continuously! Abba Father loves for His children to be ever before Him. I don't see that as a sign of not having faith, I see it as continuously wanting to be after the Father's heart and desire for your life! As we all know, His ways are not our ways and His timing is not our timing, BUT you be relentless recalling His promises back to Him for you and remaining longsuffering before Him. I believe He will honor your faithfulness to be ever before Him! Many blessings, peace, and strength during this time of waiting my friend! Your page is FULL of color and FULL of your heart! I love it! :) Hugs to you! :)
