St. Patrick's Day Tote Bag!

I know I'm an extra day early, but I was so excited with my next design and I couldn't wait to get this out there. Tomorrow is St Patricks Day! And I know, we're all familiar with the street parades, green t-shirts, Irish dancing, music and in some cases pints of Guinness that signify St Patrick's Day - but what do we know of St Patrick himself?

Essentially, St Paddy was a great missionary who set out to spread the word of God across Ireland. He was born in either in Roman England, Scotland or Wales, and was kidnapped with a number of other teenage children and sold into slavery in Ireland - where he started talking with God. But after escaping Ireland, he travelled to France and where he became a bishop. Then, with the Pope's blessing, he set off back to Ireland as a missionary. For 20 years He traveled throughout Ireland, establishing monasteries across the country. He also set up school and churches, which would aid him in his conversion. It is thought that on 17th March 461AD, St Patrick died and has since become on this day that the Irish choose to celebrate their heritage and culture.

While I was reading about the history of St Patrick, I was reminded of the Romans 10:15 and how beautiful the feet are of St Patrick. So to celebrate the memory of a great missionary, I made a little design for a budget tote bag. AND since we here at LetThemWorship like to give - you better believe that 100% proceed of purchases made DURING MARCH & APRIL will be donated to the missionaries working with Gospel For Asia!

Head on over to Zazzle and grab yourself a Saint Paddy's bag. Remember, each bag is made of 100% cotton and if you're not 100% satisfied, you can return it!

And as always, we want to showcase YOUR lovely designs!

He Is Lord

It's quite plain and simple, yet it holds so much power and strength .. He is LORD!

Forget not His benefits

I'm not the fastest reader around, but I do enjoy reading the odd book every now and then. At the moment I am in the middle of reading an extremely good book by Joseph Prince, Destined to Reign. If you haven't yet read it, I highly recommend you grab yourself a copy. The whole book is about discovering how to live a life of reigning over every adversity, lack and destructive habit that limits us from experiencing the success, wholeness and victory we were destined for.

In the chapter I am reading, he reminds me that God has every best intention for me, for you, for everybody. I'm twenty-six and doctors have diagnosed me with two particular heart conditions. I have often prayed for healing for myself, as well as others and am yet to be completely healed. The agony of not being healed had been a problem of mine for some time. For quite some time I've asked God why me, thinking it must be part of His plan. I'd get thoughts like 'God must be punishing me for things I've done wrong'. But it wasn't until I was reminded of the following scripture that I have been wrong in my thinking. The Father already sent His only Son to bear my sins on the cross and to take my punishment for me. I need to stop believing the lie that God gives me sickness, diseases and accidents to punish me or teach me a lesson.

Bless the LORD, O my soul;
And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
Bless the LORD, O my soul,
And forget not all His benefits:
Who forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases,
Who redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

One of my latest designs came from this verse. It's quite plain to the eye, yet it speaks straight to the soul. I created this piece to do exactly what it says; forget not all His benefits. So I've designed a simple piece to be framed and placed on the wall near the dresser in my bedroom so it is the first thing I see when I wake up.

Praise the Lord for all His benefits!

I love Jesus, I love design and I love ithings

I love our God, I love design and I love iThings (iPad, iPhone etc). I hope to use this little space to draw these three loves together and create a space where I can glorify God for the gift He has given me.

"And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the LORD Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father"

- Colossians 3:17

So here is to a new project and my first creation ..
