The Birth of Christ - Day 2 Scripture Writing

Hello, everyone.  Here is my scripture-writing journal page for December 2.  To find out about scripture writing as a hobby, please scroll back to yesterday. I started handwriting scripture in 2024 and it brings me great peace and joy.  The only supplies needed are a pen and notebook. I like to add printables, so I also use scissors and gluestick. This is a hobby I can do, even from bed when I am unwell.

Today's scripture is Isaiah 9:6-7, which is a famous prophecy foretelling the coming of the Messiah, describing a child born (a son given) who will bear immense responsibility (government on his shoulder), be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, and establish an eternal kingdom of justice and peace on David's throne, a promise Christians believe is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the divine King who brings true, unending peace and righteous rule.

I like to add printables from my digital stash to make the page more interesting:

• Illustrations - Deanna's Printables Facebook Group
• Scripture word art - Word Art Wednesday
• Label - Antique Images (blank), Pouring My Art Out for the Lord (prophecy label)
• Title Square - Self-made
• Number - Vintage Glam Studio

I use the Authorized King James Version of the Bible to write scriptures.

Thank you for being here. Question - Have you ever tried to read the Bible?  Please let me know in the comments.  I tried reading it many times in my life, but it was only after praying in 2021 to learn about God and to find out what the Bible really says that I was able to read and understand it.  Now I love reading the Bible and do it daily, even if only for a few minutes on some days.  God did answer my prayer! I am not seeking to convert anyone; I just want to share my hobby. Wishing you a joyful day!
