Good morning beautiful! ❤️ Our easy makeup theme today is: Can Teal and Silver Eyeshadow Brighten Over 40 Eyes?
The foundation Bible verse for this podcast is:
I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. Psalm 119:11

Last week's verse video:
So, my very dear friends, don’t get thrown off course. Every desirable and beneficial gift comes out of heaven. The gifts are rivers of light cascading down from the Father of Light. There is nothing deceitful in God, nothing two-faced, nothing fickle. He brought us to life using the true Word, showing us off as the crown of all his creatures. James 1:16-18 (MSG)
Today's verse and song is:
https://open.spotify.com/track/4qxVc0WDIoDLEWU8P8Si0X?si=86bb6e236ead4878
Post this at all the intersections, dear friends: Lead with your ears, follow up with your tongue, and let anger straggle along in the rear. God’s righteousness doesn’t grow from human anger. So throw all spoiled virtue and cancerous evil in the garbage. In simple humility, let our gardener, God, landscape you with the Word, making a salvation-garden of your life. James 1:19-21 (MSG)

Last week's verse video:
Don’t let anyone under pressure to give in to evil say, “God is trying to trip me up.” God is impervious to evil, and puts evil in no one’s way. The temptation to give in to evil comes from us and only us. We have no one to blame but the leering, seducing flare-up of our own lust. Lust gets pregnant, and has a baby: sin! Sin grows up to adulthood, and becomes a real killer. James 1:13-15 (MSG)

Last week's verse video:
When down-and-outers get a break, cheer! And when the arrogant rich are brought down to size, cheer! Prosperity is as short-lived as a wildflower, so don’t ever count on it. You know that as soon as the sun rises, pouring down its scorching heat, the flower withers. Its petals wilt and, before you know it, that beautiful face is a barren stem. Well, that’s a picture of the “prosperous life.” At the very moment everyone is looking on in admiration, it fades away to nothing. James 1:9-11 (MSG)

Last week's verse and song:
https://open.spotify.com/track/39j88lsnwjN8nyE8AVbaPC?si=15148cd52fd34d43
If you don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You'll get his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who "worry their prayers" are like wind-whipped waves. Don't think you're going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open. James 1:5-8
Today's verse is:
When down-and-outers get a break, cheer! And when the arrogant rich are brought down to size, cheer! Prosperity is as short-lived as a wildflower, so don’t ever count on it. You know that as soon as the sun rises, pouring down its scorching heat, the flower withers. Its petals wilt and, before you know it, that beautiful face is a barren stem. Well, that’s a picture of the “prosperous life.” At the very moment everyone is looking on in admiration, it fades away to nothing. James 1:9-11

Let's review our Bible verses:
I, James, am a slave of God and the Master Jesus, writing to the twelves tribes scattered to Kingdom Come: Hello! James 1:1
Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way. James 1:2-4
If you don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You'll get his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who "worry their prayers" are like wind-whipped waves. Don't think you're going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open. James 1:5-8

Wendy Merritt
My name is Wendy, I am from Texas and I have had a love for Jesus and makeup from a very young age. So young, my mom wouldn't let me wear it! Eventually she said I was old enough and I became addicted. I am so blessed to have been born a girl that gets to fingerpaint every single morning! What a joy!
My love for makeup and all things beauty related eventually brought me to work for a large beauty retailer (if you're ever in the area come see me!). I love helping people bring their internal beauty to the external. The glow on the face of a lady who just learned how to wear false lashes for a special anniversary dinner. The giggles from little girls having their birthday party at my store and getting to buy their first makeup stash! The smile as a woman feels beautiful for the first time after a battle with a long illness. With that in mind, I wanted to do that same thing for my online friends and make some new friends. So here we are!
In this podcast we are going to celebrate two things: a little beauty on the outside and a whole lot of beauty on the inside by hanging out putting on our makeup and learning a Bible verse together. Our The Word in Color Coloring Book will become your visual journal for your Bible verses you memorize.
I can't wait to spend this time with you!
Love ya!
~ Wendy ♥
