Inside my sketchbook

Last year I shared with you before a book I read called "Praying in Color" it was written by author Sybil MacBeth. I also shared this with a few women how to pray in color at my local church.

I wanted to share a few pages from my sketchbook.

The book started when Sybil started to sketch on her porch. She was burdened by the needs of a family and church member who were very ill. She began writing down there names and praying for them while she sketched. She continued to do practice this during her quiet time. By sketching this help her to focus for a longer period time while praying.

Later she started to share this with other women at her local church. She decided to write a book on this special way to pray in a creative form. Sybil also shares this around the country at workshops.

This would be a great book to share with several friends at church or your home. Your children will love this as you try to develop their prayer life. This in no way replaces traditional prayer, but can be another form you can add to your day.
