A warm Cornerstone welcome to @Lori Ross 🤍 Inside the classroom you’ll find free pages, printable study tools, and character studies on six women of the Bible waiting to explore. And on June 1st, our new Pentecost / Upper Room study begins in Acts 1 & 2. 🔥 We’re glad you’re here, Lori. Pull up a chair and stay awhile. ☕📖

Miriam was all about giving Gid the Praise. Art work is from Hey Sisters group by Sammie Halley.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how hard it is to move forward when you’ve spent a long time in survival mode. Miriam’s story happens after the sea closes behind them. The danger was over… but someone still had to teach the people how to sing again. 🌊💜 That part really stayed with me this week.

He’s carried me through so much lately… what I celebrated most though were my two pregnancies. Both were high risk, complicated, and followed more than a few losses. Both my babies came early, but we manage to stay out of nicu and both are thriving. I thank God for them every day.

I spent a long time not understanding what it was that I was looking for when it came to devotional practices. I didn't make the connection between creativity and worship until I came back to my faith as an adult. As a non Christian I glorified my planner. I loved it. I spent hours in it. I carried it with me everywhere. I stopped using it when I came back to my faith and I stared at it unused on my desk for a year before I realized I could do this with it, that I could channel that glorification towards God, who actually deserved to be glorified. How do you use creativity in worship? How do you want to? What are the creative skills or hopes God has planted in you?
