| i used overcome by jeremy camp,my mouth ii enjoyed drawing i highlited victory is yours and i have victory over sin,my eyes 1st timothy 4;12 Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.written by Jared3672 | | The reason why I chose this text for my background is because it is my favorite song. This text is important in my life because I listen to it every day. For my self-portrait I enjoyed drawing my hair. Some of the words I chose were “missing him was dark grey all alone”, “we’re burning red”, and “but loving him was red”. These words fit into the theme of my life because it is my favorite song. I like the words I highlighted best in my finished product. I declare that I want god to work through my life by helping me to work with little kids.
Jesus answered, “The light will be with you only a little longer. Walk while you have the light so that darkness doesn’t overtake you. The one who walks in darkness doesn’t know where he’s going.
Romans 12:35
written by Brittany6842 | | It makes me feel strong enough to handle tough situations, my nose, im bulletproof, my hair, For god so loved the world that he gave his one and only son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.written by Rachel8491 |
