"I Walked Today Where Jesus Walked"

Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
... he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the LORD has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth. ~ Isaiah 53:4-7

I'm purposing to choose joy in 2012. This doesn't always come easy for me so I've created a little reminder. You can read about how I made the sign below here. So, it's my pleasure to give this cottage-cute CHOOSE JOY fabric art project to one lucky follower, along with a sweet new-with-tags vintage apron, and two vintage hand-crocheted potholders. Just a little "cottage cuteness" to brighten a winter's day and to say "thanks" for the lovely comments, new friendships, and welcoming support from the blogging community.

I've also choosen "Choose Joy" as my motto for the year 2012.  I love Lynn's blog and I'm sure you will also.  Please check it out and enter her giveaway

Have a God Filled Day
