Not too long ago I found myself right in the middle of what I thought was my own personal "worst case scenario." During this time I really relied on the song, "Be Thou My Vision" and learned to trust that God was leading me and that His perspective was grander than mine. As I listened to that song, this painting is what I imagined. I saw Christ helping us up the mountain to be able to see His view - one that is as beautiful as we could imagine. Now that some time has passed, my perspective has also changed! My worst case scenario is actually now my best case scenario. Although hard, I can clearly see that what I went through was leading me to something much better. And even though sometimes we don't get to see the reason behind everything right away, I do know that our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are always helping us up our "mountains" to be able to see their view.

I saw another blogger make a fabulous Armour of God felt book activity, but unfortunately don't know what blog so can't post credit (sorry). A4 design, the soldier without his armour. I've created a couple of versions, all of which can be printed onto card, laminated and made into a great scripture related activity. It can also be printed on to transfer paper (if using a mirror image version of image. The pieces can also be matched to the correct shape/ word. A version were the pieces are all on one page.
