This is the last piece I made for friends of friends, and is unfortunately wandering somewhere in Germany, lost in the post. I am wondering what to do about that, and perhaps I might need to make another one and send it again. That's ok though, because the verse is excellent: "Be strong and courageous. Do not be dismayed or terrified; for the Lord will be with you wherever you go." It was hard to get a good picture of this one, as I made the "bowl" shape a little more abstract, and the wherever you go section travels out from the top center to the bottom edge. I like what I did with the Lord's name, putting more crimp beads along the L to make it stand out more. Perhaps people could pray that it finds its way to the lovely family for whom it was intended!

Dear Mary Kate and friends,
Thank you all for your prayers! We have received the life verse bowl in excellent shape yesterday. It is a great idea to make those Golden Bowls to be filled with our prayers. It inspired my wife to have a more creative look at the bible.
We already found an appropriate spot for this special gift.
Thank you so much!
Greetings from Germany,
Andrea and Markus
It arrived safely!! One little missing "e" made for extra travel time around Germany!!
I think it's interesting that the bowl that said “Do not be dismayed or terrified; for the Lord will be with you wherever you go" is the one that traveled farthest and longest—and God and lots of prayers went with it and arrived to bless this wonderful family.
It is humbling to know that we are part of a family of Christ that stretches to all parts of the world--and that our hearts and spirits are one in Jesus!
Mary Kate, I appreciate your vision and the love and inspiration that you put into each creation. They are visible praise to God!
