Refreshing presence. . . .

Times of refreshing come from the presence of the Lord. . .
Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord; and that He may send Jesus, the Christ appointed for you, whom heaven must receive until the period of restoration of all things about which God spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from ancient time. Acts 3:19-21

CHACB Challenge #8: Metal and/or Glass

Gloria Designs ChallengeThe current challenge at Craft Hoarders Anonymous is to:   
Show us Some Metal or Glass
Do you hoard gears, pins, brads, eyelets, frames, and other metal do-dads? Do you have a thing for tiny light bulbs and glass vials? Do junk drawers make you giddy? Do you hang out in office supply stores so you can score funky paperclips? Do bottle caps make you swoon? Dig through your hoard to find something metal or glass (or both) and make a project to share!

Full of His glory. . .

"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory."
Isaiah 6:3; Psalm 72:19; Revelation 4:8   
(to cite just a few of the many passages that speak of the Glory of the Lord and His sovereign dominion over all of creation!)
