Good morning friends!
I so love all the decorating elements to these sets!
I can make all kinds of arrangements for Christmas!
On these arrangements I used a lot of the dries white adhesive with glitter
to get the snow look on the pine cones and berries etc. It is a fine
tip (because of the metal tip that fits on the bottle) and is easy to use
unlike a paste although I also use past for the ground and other larger
areas of snow.
Each page was so much fun to create!
I clipped off the small ornaments on some of the sticks for a more
rustic arrangement.

I have a song to share with you today. It is called Reckless Love.
Verse 1
Before I spoke a word, You were singing over me
You have been so, so good to me
Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me
You have been so, so kind to me
Chorus
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah
There's no shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
Verse 2
When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me
You have been so, so good to me
When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me
You have been so, so kind to me

Repeat chorus
This song just really speaks to me about how much God loves me when I am not even worthy of any of His love!
He was seeking me when I didn't even know Him!
When I was in the darkest pit He lifted me up and washed me clean, He set me on a high hill and set His unending love upon me and blessed me.
He will do the same for you, there is no sin He cannot forgive.
