Visuals
I love visuals and was blessed to find two sites that I have leaned heavily on in my work. Storyblock.com and CreationSwap.com both have provided amazing creativity and visuals I am so grateful to be allowed to use. These sites give us access to some very create disciples of Jesus whom I believe add great insight and contemplation material. I even found an artist friend in one of these sites to assist us. GoDaddy has also provided some visual and the template for this site. There are a few addition artist I have received permission to use and will give their names as we use their pieces .
Website Named
2 Corinthians 1:3-7 talks about "comfort". One translation for the word "comfort" is "to walk alongside". This word visual of God walking alongside us and us needing to walk alongside others, captures visually how we should approach relationship. Whether parenting, marriage, mentoring, trainings and/or work. We need to learn to walk alongside others, not thinking for others but helping them process information and determine what information is most valuable to work with. We need to learn to not decide for others but assist them in learning about discernment. We must not live someone else's life but instead walk next to others as they make good and possibly less wise decisions. We must live the reality that each person is to live in the sight of God. Their life is their responsibility! This is "alongside discipleship." Not controlling but partnering in this glorious journey calling living the Christian life.
