Every day or so, during my morning quiet time, I choose a Bible Verse to write in my journal and then draw around it. I've found it a fun way to memorize Scripture and meditate on it while I'm drawing. I pretty much just start drawing without much planning ahead, using watercolor pencils. I hope you enjoy looking at my illustrations as much as I enjoy making them.

When I thought about this verse, I pictured the crazy quilt. Each quilt piece represents a "good work" which we've done in our lives. Some are plain and seem insignificant, while others are fancy and stand out. But all of them, when stitched together, form a beautiful life that God has blessed us with and planned out each piece before the beginning of time.

This is the first one I've done where I used some symbolism. As I started the drawing, I thought, "What would the grace of God look like. I decided on the light green swirls because God's grace swirls through our lives in a gentle way, never demanding, but there for us when we choose to accept it. Then I needed something to represent people and I chose the green circles. Without his grace we are alone and weak, but His grace gives us unity as believers in Christ and power to walk in Him. Lastly I needed something to represent the power of God and chose the yellow glow around the green circles which radiates from us because of His grace in our lives.
