Writing on the Wall

So - we've been deciding on how to paint the nursery (pink and green) we just haven't gotten it done yet! Anyways, a few months ago I was inspired by one of the leaders of our small group at church to being praying scripture - you know like actually speaking the verse(s) out loud in a prayer. So, I talked with Kyle and we decided that it would be neat to come up with some scriptures that we wanted to pray over Ryleigh and then write those scriptures on the walls in her nursery. This way, even though we will paint over them and they will not be visible they will be there on the walls, surrounding her. So - that's what we did this weekend. I took some pictures and thought I'd post those now, before we get the walls painted!

I know these are somewhat hard to read but here are the verses that we used:

Ps 51:10
2 Th 3:3
Jer 1:5
Matt 6: 9-13 (The Lord's Prayer)
Eph 6: 14-17 (The armor of God)
Ps 40:11
Col 3:20
Jer 29:11

We'll keep posting pictures as we get more done on the nursery!
