1 Thessalonians 5:12-28
We appeal to you, brothers and sisters, to respect those who labor among you, and have charge of you in the Lord and admonish you; esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves. And we urge you, beloved, to admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with all of them.
See that none of you repays evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to all. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise the words of prophets, but test everything; hold fast to what is good; abstain from every form of evil.
May the God of peace himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do this.
Beloved, pray for us.
Greet all the brothers and sisters with a holy kiss. I solemnly command you by the Lord that this letter be read to all of them.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

ReplyDeleteYou've a great skill in creating beautiful cards. I admire your photos too, that lily is spectacular :D)
Beautiful work for the challenges, I like that monochromatic card.
ReplyDeleteHappy PPF Arnoldo.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pieces and photos and words.
Your post is so uplifting and wonderful.
Thank you~
Beautiful artwork and lovely positive words. I love the monochromatic geometrical card. Very unique! I've never seen anything like that before and it makes me think of fantastic architecture. Have a lovely weekend and happy PPF.
ReplyDeleteThank you Arnoldo for the wise words and lovely art of yours. Love the Lily, too. Happy PPF 💗
ReplyDeleteHi Arnoldo, it's good to be busy I'm sure you'll agree and yes I am at the moment......no I am always! I started reading the words and they remind me of many thought that a good teacher would have and I know you will understand that but then I was distracted by that brilliant white piece of art. I have those dies and just haven't used them but you've inspired me to get them out.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a lovely weekend, I should have a rest before starting all your jobs, you deserve it. Angela xXx
Wonderful Art journal page and cards Arnoldo, as always.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a very nice afternoon
Big hugs, Caty
How beautiful! I love that verse. He is indeed the Father of Lights..such a lovely description. Your paper art is extraordinary--fills my eyes it does. Which is the greatest compliment I can give.
ReplyDeleteFantastic art work Arnoldo. I particularly like the journal page with the illustrated scripture verse. Happy belated WOYWW. Sarah #3
ReplyDeleteIt’s a really illuminating, uplifting passage from the word, Arnoldo, and as always your art is beautiful indeed. Love the altered lily card .. and the interactive is a particularly clever design and words too. Welll done. It’s funny I love white but struggle with white on white cards, your s has lovely texture.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a blessing, and may God bless you too.
Hugs, Shaz in Oz.x

ReplyDeleteI love how you shared all those verses and then paired them with your own amazing art.It's such a cool way to see everything come to life. The birthday slider card is seriously so creative, and I'm obsessed with the Lily photo. You're so talented.
