Great Sharing, Good Friends, Gorgeous Cards


“We made a card to:
Give a card.”
“We made a card to:
Give a blessing.”
“We made a card to:
Give a brighter day.”

Have you given your cards yet?
Someone may need a blessing to brighten their day when their world seems like it’s falling apart around them. Judy shared that in our pain we can say,
"I don't know the answer to why this is happening and God doesn't owe us one. Keep in mind that Moses and Elijah were tremendously used by God, but neither got everything he asked. We can't let our fear that God may not affirmatively answer our every prayer keep us from praying." (from Beth Moore)

Over twenty ladies gathered on February 16 to make four cards prepared by Gretchen and Judy. We started our event with a meaningful sharing and prayer time. Lori followed by looking at Matthew 5: The Beatitudes. Lori said she likes to think of the Beatitudes as “We can BE better people if we had the ATTITUDE Jesus taught the disciples."















Mt 5:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Mt 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Mt 5:5 Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
Mt 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
Mt 5:7 Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Mt 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
Mt 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
Mt 5:10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Mt 5:11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
Mt 5:12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
