Hello everyone! I’m so thankful that Diana Willis invited me to go LIVE in the Bible Journaling Tips & Tricks Facebook Group for their challenge week. Seeing as the Advent season begins tomorrow, November 29, I decided to share a little about the observance of Advent and why it’s important to me. I chose to journal alongside 1 Peter 1:13.
Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 1:13 NASB
The Christmas season can be a little crazy and brings along so many different emotions for everyone. I like to use Advent, the 4 Sundays leading up to Christmas Eve, as a time to focus my heart and mind on Christ and the excitement of His return.
GotQuestions.Org has some great information if you are unfamiliar with the observance of Advent and want a quick look into it.
For the “art behind the heart”, I used a variety of printables from the RetroHip Magazine Issue 15. Andrea (@retrohipmama) generously offered to sponsor my LIVE challenge which means you have the chance to win a digital copy of Issue 15 over in the FB group.
You can find links to all the products used and mentioned during the LIVE down below.
I’m looking forward to returning to this page each year and adding a prayer tag to my pocket as I focus in on the season of anticipatory waiting of Christ’s return!
