Abide in God and Bear Fruit



I am in an online Bible Journaling group on SCS and each month we have a theme to focus on. The theme for our January Bible Art Journaling (BAJ) projects is "Abide".



Those who remain in me, and I in them, 
will produce much fruit. 
For apart from me you can do nothing. 
John 15:5b

Earlier in the passage we note that Jesus is talking about being the "true grapevine" and His Father (God) is the gardener. Unfortunately, I didn't have any grape/grapevine stamps to use. Instead I decided to go with a different kind of fruit - apples.

Because it's important to me not to cover the Scripture, I used a piece of vellum for the tip in. When the tip in is turned (like a page) I can easily read the verses.



Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

  2. Love your page Jeanette - and the fact that you put it on vellum so you can read the words - I love that you don't obscure the print in your Bible journaling
