Praying for... plaque
One of my goals for my family this year is to put others first.
One way i thought we could do that is have a special person to pray for each week.
Now to be honest this ideas sounds great but I needed to have something visual to make it really happen.
Last year after Valentine's Day our local grocery store had stuff marked down 90%
so whether I really needed it or not I had to buy it.
(don't worry i threw out that mid set for 2012)
I was for wooden blocks with paper on the fronts and a white painted back.
each block is approximately 5.5" X 7.5", really for only a dollar nineteen.
I chose to paint the sides of the block green along with a clothes pin
I mod podged old dictionary pages to the front
I ran one page through my printer
I printed the words we are praying for...
I drilled a small hole in the back of the block and added it to my gallery wall.
This week we have spent extra time praying for my Grandpa Cook.
Although I don't visit him often enough, he means the world to me.
I love him dearly and it hurts me to see him suffering.
He has COPD, a failing heart amongst other issues.
Will you say an extra prayer for him this week?
Since I have 3 extra blocks..
I think I am going to make 3 more prayer plaques and add them to the shop..
what do you think?
