Bible Journaling

Hello beauties,

I thought I'd share some pics of the outside of my KJV Journaling bible by Barbour Publishers.  I've marked my bible for a long time and have studied His word most of my life, but when I found out that there was a bible that gave me plenty of room to write in my notes and personal thoughts about God and scripture, and at the same time I would be able to express it with art, I couldn't resist. 

I will say that at first, I was a little apprehensive to create art in the Holy Scriptures, but as I prayed about it and researched what a blessing this process could be I decided to go for it.  Although, I don't feel comfortable creating overly "messy" artwork in my bible.  I can do this in any of my many art journals.

It has been tremendously rewarding.  As you create an appropriate art piece to describe the verse or your thoughts about it, you are also processing and digesting His message as it has an opportunity to saturate your being.

Here are some pics of the outstide of my journaling bible.  As you will see I made a little art piece with a quote I found on Pinterest that says "Ruin your Bible to heal your heart."  I pinned it in my pinterest account if you would like more info on the writer.  This quote has been inspirational to me during this process.









If you do the same, please share your pics.  Have a great week everyone!

Hugs,

Abby
