Cards and Gifts to Encourage and Bring Hope

Jeremiah 29:11 holds some of the most important words for us to hear. Knowing that God has plans for us and wants us to be prosperous and happy in life is always reason to go on. We are not just plopped down on the planet wandering aimlessly through life. We have a purpose and reason for being here.
Another card here has scripture from Matthew 6 which tells us not to put our trust in worldly things that can be destroyed, but to "store up our treasures in heaven" and those will last for all time.

One of the best things to do for someone is to pray for them...and let them know it! Encourage a sick neighbor or friend who is having a tough time or send one to a church leader. "I'm praying for you!" are encouraging words.

Who doesn't need a reminder from time to time of all that God is capable of doing? The diversity on this planet is all I need to think about to lift my spirits because it shows God's great power and reminds me that he is in control. From majestic mountains to tiny seashells, He created them all. And he loves for us to ask, "Show me even more!"

Beautiful scenic photography and close-up pictures of flowers and butterflies make pretty cards with inspirational quotes from God's word inside.

Bags with words of faith can be used for carrying books, groceries or sheets of music.
Everyone is going green these days and inspirational bags make wonderful gifts for church leaders and good friends.

Choose a printed design or an embroidered message.

Religious leaders of the Christian faith may seem to have an easy job. After all they only work on Sunday morning ...right?

If you know anything at all about the way the "church" works, you know the above statement is far from true. Members of the clergy are some of the busiest people around and they seldom get time off from their "job".

They are needed for weddings, baptisms and christenings and called in the middle of the night for family emergencies and hospital visits. They are usually the ones we turn to for Christian advice in the trials of life and they must come up with wonderful sermons and messages each Sunday of the year.

All the responsibilities and decisions of the church fall on their shoulders and they usually have families of their own to attend to as well.

Our spiritual leaders don't have it as easy as it might appear to some and they do appreciate being recognized and thanked for the important difference they make in our lives.

Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens,
and those who lead many to righteousness,
like the stars for ever and ever.

Daniel 12:3

What does Isaiah 54:17 say?

"No weapon forged against you will prevail,
and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
and this is their vindication from me,"
declares the Lord. (NIV)
