While studying in Genesis 12 and 13 today, we learn of Abrams struggles to stay on track. He is obedient, by going to the land God promises him. Due to drought he goes to Egypt with his relative Lot. However, he sins, by calling his wife Sarah, his sister and allowing her to become the wife of Pharaoh. When Pharaoh finds out he makes him leave the land so Abram goes back to the land God promised him. Abram trusts God again by letting his relative Lot choose the land he wants instead of Abram choosing. In the end God blesses Abram again for being obedient. God tells Abram that his descendants will have all the land from the east, west, north and south.
God Blesses us when we are obedient, even though we are sinners, He loves us.Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
How beautiful is God's love! I am thankful for His Goodness and Mercy!

The colors are, Merry Merlot, Flirty Flamingo and Very Vanilla Card Stock with Flirty Flamingo, Merry Merlot, Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizzazz, and Old Olive Inks. I used the White Stampin' Chalk Marker to faux stitch the edges of the Label frame at the top of the card.
