A Wonderful Valentine's Gift

I was looking for a special gift for a dear friend who I felt could use some extra encouragement. I found a wonderful gift...a beautiful handcrafted wire cross with a silver heart (pictured left). It is a refrigerator magnet. I liked the cross so much I decided to order a similar one for myself.

I was thrilled when the crosses arrived in the mail today. I was so pleased when I opened the package to find that the magnets are even more beautiful than the picture.

You may find the cross (aong with a a variety of other crosses) at the following link:

The cross is a symbol of our Christian faith. It is the symbol of our salvation. It represents the fact that Jesus Christ, the sinless Son of God, came to this earth and died on the cross for our sins. He not only died, He rose from the dead and had victory over sin and death.

Etsy Treasure-"Reminders of Our Faith"

Tonight, for the first time, I was able to snatch a treasury on Etsy. What fun it was! A few days ago I had posted a thread on Etsy with the same title. So many wonderful people posted wonderful items from their shop. I simply went through and picked some of my favorites. The only problem was that I found more favorites than I was able to list! Why not visit the treasury? http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=4514 and enjoy!

Totally Crosses

I am a shopper. I love to shop. When I'm too tired to do other things, [if I have money!] shopping invigorates me. One of the great things about Etsy is that there is such a wide variety of shops from which to choose. I've had so much fun just "window shopping" on Etsy. I've met so many great people and seen so many cool things. One of the shops I've enjoyed and appreciated is Totally Crosses. She makes only crosses. There is tremendous beauty in a plain, ordinary cross because of what it represents----my precious Saviour, Jesus Christ, and the sin and shame He experienced for me on that cross! The crosses T.C. makes are extraordinary in their design. These are really cool wire wrapped crosses. I love having visual reminders of what Christ did for me on the cross and the fact that we have an empty cross because Christ not only died for us, He rose again and had victory over death and sin. These crosses would make great birthday or Christmas gifts. Visit her shop at http://www.totallycrosses.etsy.com/.
