Everlasting Love

Hi! Thanks for coming to visit today. It's time for another challenge at Word Art Wednesday. We are looking at Jeremiah 31:3 today, "The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee." Dictionary.com says that "everlasting" means eternal, forever, and incessant and "eternal" means without beginning or ending. So God's love for us has always been. There was never a time in eternity past that He has not loved us nor a time in eternity future that He will not love us. WOW!! Now that is mind-boggling. And it's because of that great love for us that He draws us to Himself. He wants a close relationship with us because He loves us. Think on that for a while and that fact should brighten your day.

Our sponsor this week is the fabulous one-stop-shop, Simon Says Stamp. I used several of their products to make this card using MOJO Monday Sketch 418. In this card, the patterned paper does all the work. The flowers were stamped with VersaMark on patterned paper and the flower centers were stamped on soft navy cardstock before being heat embossed and then die cut. Sequins and Star Dust Stickles accent the flower centers in the background paper.
