"one little word"

I heard about the "one little word" project a few years ago over at Ali Edwards blog. I immediately thought about what word does God want me to focus on? I was inspired to create a faith art canvas with my word. Adore Him Creations faith art "one little word" canvas project is finding a single word (contained in a bible verse?) that is a catalyst for enriching your life. It is about choosing a word that you can focus on, mediate on, and reflect upon as you go about your daily life. My first canvas was "the light."

It was a very powerful experience and I treasure the faith art that God allowed me to create. It became really popular with my friends too, as you can see in the slide show. We had a craft day, and about 10 women each created their own faith art "one little word" canvas.

Want to try this? Think about creating a faith art piece that reflects your current faith walk, or what God is leading you to focus on this year. Can you identify a single word or verse that sums up what God wants for you this year? Maybe you can pray, do bible study and journal and God will reveal the bible verses and thoughts to guide you. A "One Little Word" PDF is available for free that will guide you through the process with photos and techniques. click here to go directly to the shopping cart and receive your free download Canvas Faithart One Little Word.
