Journaling Bible - Yahweh Shalom - Judges 6:24


Gideon met an angel of the LORD face to face for the first time in Judges 6:12 and that moment onward God showed numerous amazing signs to Gideon to reassure that He is with Gideon. "Yahweh Shalom", or "Jehovah Shalom", means "God is my Peace".

Journaling Bible - But Now Mine Eye Seeth Thee - Job 42:5



Please excuse my wrinkly fingers as I hold the page from being flipped over by the breeze! 😊🍂 Job went through so much. Before, he only heard about the Lord whom he believed and lives righteously before Him. This he faithfully did, through terrible trials which saw him lose his children and all his possessions and ultimately his health. It was only after he clung onto God through all this, that God revealed Himself to Job, and Job finally saw the One whom He has believed all along. I thank the Lord for encouraging us with stories of men and women of faith so we can preserve through trials and know that not one happens without His knowledge. We don't understand but we must preserve. The reward will be so much worth it.

Journaling Bible - In the Beginning, God... - Genesis 1:1


In the beginning. Where it all starts. Elohim (God) was there. And He spoke it all into existence. How awesome is our God! :)

Journaling Bible - Bringing into Captivity Every Thought - 2 Corinthians 10:5



God emphasized 2 Corinthians 10:5 to me numerous times... When we are diligently aware of what we allow to think upon, and bring that thought to Jesus, talk it over with Him and bringing it under His Lordship, then we will be able to guard our minds. Once God is invited in all our thoughts, then we can expect to hear from Him :)

Journaling Bible - Praise the Lord all ye Nations - Psalm 117 & 118


God wants *all* nations, *all* people on earth to praise Him... you and me included. He is not some far off God... oh no, He is a personal God, it is Him who is responsible for our life on earth, He knows the number of hair that we have and He loves us very much.

Journaling Bible - Labour Not to be Rich - Proverbs 23:4


This verse got my attention yesterday and it made me think. God is saying, do not work with the aim of getting rich. What about the Proverbs 31 woman? I think she got her priorities right... She worked to provide, to bless... and God took care of the rest.

Journaling Bible - Train Up a Child - Proverbs 22:6


Children need a foundation in God's words and wisdom, so when they are old enough to leave the nest, they will be able to discern what is right and what is wrong in all they do. Sure they might become like the prodigal son and wander far away from what they know is right but sooner or later they will desire to be back home in the teachings they grew up with, because God's ways are wise, safe and secure... an anchor of hope for their souls. Don't give up training your child, parents, and don't give up praying for them to have a saving knowledge of Christ! :)

Journaling Bible - Faithful are the Wounds of a Friend - Proverbs 27:6



Real friends care about us enough to share their deepest concerns with us, especially when it may be difficult for us to hear it. God calls them faithful friends. Let us not shun them but talk it over.

Journaling Bible - Shema Yisrael - Hear O Israel - Mark 12:29-31


"Shema Yisrael Yahweh eloheinu Yahweh echad" ... is Hebrew from Deuteronomy 6:4, "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord alone" Jesus quoted from the Old Testament and says this is still the number one commandment - to acknowledge the Lord to be our God alone, and to love Him beyond all... and to love one another as we love ourselves.

Journaling Bible - Hear Both Sides First - Proverbs 18:17


(Part 2 - Proverbs 18:17) How often it happens that people are quick to judge, when they hear only the accuser's side of the story. It may seem right and just. But God wants us to hear both sides. This way the real story of what happened can come to the light and no one gets falsely accused.

Journaling Bible - Wait and Listen First - Proverbs 18:13


(Part 1- Proverbs 18:13) God really wants us to wait and listen to the full story before we put in our two cents. This will give the Holy Spirit a chance to minister to our hearts and we can reply as truthfully as we can, with His kindness and mercy.

Journaling Bible - The Difference Between the Sinner and the Godly - Psalm 32:5


I love the next verse also - "For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found:" ...I just realized when I was reading this, that the difference between the sinner and the godly is in the acknowledging of our sins. Jesus came because of our sins. When we acknowledge we did wrong and invite Him to restore us, He will gladly do so and He will throw our sins as far as the east is from the west and love us as His own. The key is in our humility when we confess to Him, "yes, I did wrong. Please come help me."

Journaling Bible - In Every Thing Give Thanks - 1 Thess 5:18


It says in *every* thing, give thanks... that includes both good and bad.. yup, the bad stuff too. Lift up your eyes to God and thank Him, even if you do not understand why. It's hard, but it's what God wants you to do. "Trust Me in this," He says.

Custom Name Doodling Page in American Sign Language


This is a fantastic colouring in doodle page for any girl (or adult!) showing their names in the American Sign Language. 


If you or your child do not know how to sign in American Sign Language (ASL), this colouring in doodle page is an excellent way to learn, because it shows the full alphabet in American Sign Language in stars all around the page... each ASL alphabet has their own English letter next to them.


This one says "Holly"

In the middle of the page, I can put in a custom name (your daughter's or your own,or a friend's, or a student's) in hearts. The custom name in hearts in the middle does not have English letters with it, but anyone can look around the page for ASL alphabet in stars to find out the meaning of the custom name in the middle. 

It is a wonderful teaching tool and enjoyment time for anyone!

Click here to go to my etsy store to purchase them, you can also purchase boy's style custom name doodling page:

This one says "Will" and it does not have the alphabet around it,
but I can include it in upon request.
