In the Spring of 2020 Forever Grateful was birthed by way of a near death experience. In my hospital experience the Holy Sprit was speaking to me and I began to write my vision on a dinner napkin. God’s words of direction were prevalent at my time of need. Psalm 46:1 was a constant reminder to me that God is my Refuge and a Very Present Help.
After I returned home for recovery my days were focused on rest, regeneration, and thinking about what hobbies I could take on to calm me down. While there were so many thoughts on my mind I passionately turned to the gifts and talents that I love. Most of my days were spent watching shopping channels. After watching those shopping channels, I put my own gifts and talents to work after buying several beautiful bracelets that I had fallen in love with. I thought, I can probably make something like this on my own, and they would come completely handmade by me.
After making several bracelets and giving them to family and friends as a token of appreciation because they prayed fervently for me, I still searched for more to do to fulfil my days. During this time, I was compelled to complete the inspiration that started on a plain dinner napkin while I was in the hospital. The vision that was unfolded on the dinner napkin was my way of being Forever Grateful. I was led to make a handkerchief for the tears I cried, knowing he was my (refuge) and a prayer cloth which represents a very present help (my promise).
I said all of that to say, I would like to share my handmade inspirational gift sets and individual pieces with you.
These precious cloths and jewelry pieces are to encourage everyone that there is hope in ALL circumstances.
I hope you all love my products just as much as I love making them!
Thank you,
Donna
