“…for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.”
Philippians 4:11

It is only when we rest in God that we are truly content. God already knows what we need and what we don’t need. When we are at peace with Him and thankful for every blessing He has bestowed upon us, we are content. It doesn’t matter if we are broke or have an abundance of money, unless we let God satisfy us, we will never truly be content.
I am learning to be content in every season. My personality of always striving for the next thing and obtaining my next goal, but God is showing me that I don’t always have to be looking forward, because I miss what He has for me in the now. If I don’t appreciate the here and now, how can I appreciate what is coming?

Contentment is not based on your possessions, but on Who possesses your heart…Jesus.

Have a terrific Thursday!

This was the Bible Journaling page from the subscription group yesterday! Boy, didn't realize I would need that grace today...it's only 11:11 am and I am sitting in the Spectrum store on my laptop pretending i am in a tranquil coffee shop sipping a caramel macchiato...when actually I am number 15 in line for help just reminding myself that "this thorn in my flesh" today could be worse.

Here's the crazy part...

I get to the dealership and they look at my battery and check it...only to tell me there is nothing wrong with it! Even though my car wouldn't crank and I got a battery message this morning.

I am not saying Jesus fixed it...but I am saying Jesus fixed it.
The service department said it looked good and I said, THANK YOU, LORD and drove up outta there like they had just paid that joker off for me!

I am learning to be thankful in all things...

Maybe I needed it to slow myself down a little bit.
Maybe I needed it to just remind myself that I am not in control.
Maybe I needed to be without my phone for a little bit...'cause I spend too much time with it in my face.
Maybe I just needed to know that God's grace is sufficient in the BIG problems of life and in the little nuisances of a morning that didn't go the way I thought it should.

His plans are greater than my plans.

Even if His plans create what seem like problems to me...they are to strengthen, prune and mold me more into His image.

His grace is sufficient for me. That Paul knew what he was talking about.

1 Corinthians 12:9

I want to have “bulldog faith”…not letting go…like often times the bite of a bulldog or pit bull. They have a tendency which is engrained within them to not let go once they grab hold and bite down on a target.

In Jude 1:3, he is writing to the recipients of his letter (who are Christians) and saying, “Dear friends, although I was eager to write you about the salvation we share, I found it necessary to write and exhort you to contend for the faith that was delivered to the saints once and for all.”
He changed his focus after he started writing because he had to tell them how important it was to contend (fight against, agonize over) false teachers that were present. When asking them to contend, he says, I EXHORT you to contend. Exhort is to strongly encourage or pressure someone to do something. So, Jude is putting pressure on the recipients of this letter to agonize over the faith and fight against the false teachers/doctrine! Now, when he is talking about “the faith” it doesn’t mean just our personal belief or our sense of trust in God, but it means the essential truths of the gospel that all true Christians hold in common.

What do we hold in common? Honestly, I believe those lines are blurred quite a bit these days. We must go back to the faith of the early New Testament church. Read in Acts Chapter 2, the day of Pentecost. Read what Paul says in Romans 6:17-18. Think about Paul and what he says in Galatians 1:22-24. He who formerly persecuted Christians later preached the faith he once tried to destroy! There was a definite form of faith in the history of the early church. It wasn’t full of what is “right for me” or what we put together as “our own faith”, it is what is outlined clearly in the scriptures (see Ephesians 2:20)…The faith that was built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets with Jesus Christ as the cornerstone. We can distribute it over and over, but it was delivered by God! We don’t need to subtract from it, add to it or change it any way when distributing it. We must contend for it with bulldog faith, just as it was delivered!

Okay…so back to that bulldog. When I was reading about their temperament, I learned that they are quite tenacious…meaning they keep a firm hold of what they know…if you teach them something and are consistent with it, they will not forget it. They can be quite determined. I asked myself these questions:

How tenacious am I about God’s Word? Am I determined to live a life that contends for the faith?
Do I keep a firm hold onto The Truth?…do I cling tightly to it?

How easily do I forget what God says and allow the devil to try and distract me with a tasty treat out of the corner of my eye?

Maybe you can ask yourself those same questions, too. Maybe you have let go of God’s Word…His Truth…and you are clinging to a false faith or your personal belief in something.
Pick up His Word…His Truth.
Bite down on it and don’t let go.

Bulldog faith is one of tenacity, determination, and clinging to the truth you will find in God’s Word.
Refuse to forget what God says in His Word.

Don’t taste anything the devil has to offer.

Anything you bite down that is not of God is not going to taste good. It may satisfy you for a moment, but with God’s Word, when you bite down, the more the Holy Spirit reveals to you, the deeper you will want to sink in your teeth!

The father-in-law of one of my besties makes honey. He has bee boxes and when we had the opportunity to visit back in March, it was pretty neat to see up close and even taste honey straight from the box!

So, when I was reading Proverbs 24:13-14 I got to thinking about beekeeping. As I was reading, I decided to do some research on being a beekeeper and harvesting honey from the hives. I don't know about you, but I just assumed you put some boxes out in the yard or a field and let the bees do their thing...but then again, what do I know!?!? In reading, I learned that now beekeepers have to worry about parasites and diseases that they didn't have to worry about years ago, so they can't just leave the hive alone. They have to keep a watchful eye on the hives throughout the year by opening them up and looking for anything that might be starting to develop and clean out any pests or add barriers such as chemical treatments to keep the hive from disease.
Even more, I didn't realize this, but honey is basically bee vomit.
Yep. Puke.
That sweet stuff comes from nectar being mixed with an enzyme in the bees stomach which inverts the sugars. This inverted nectar is regurgotated and placed in the honey comb cell. Depending on temperature, relative humidity (for drying), and a nectar source, the bees rapidly beat their wings to dry before it has cured enough to be sealed and capped. This drying prevents fermentation. Once it has been capped in the cells within the hive , it is ready for harvest.
Then there's that suit. I know you've seen the jumpsuit and the hat with the net covering to prevent stings. Without that suit, it would be quite difficult to do anything with the hives because the bees would sting you with every chance they got! It's your protection so you can receive your reward...your honey!
Now, pursuing wisdom is hard work. It requires you, like the beekeeper and her hives, to open up God's Word, examine it, study it and treat it well, so it can produce within you. If you are working hard on your spiritual hive, you can expect to produce honey for your soul. Even better, as we produce honey for own heart when reading, within us changes and when regurgitated to those around us, they get to experience God through us! My goodness that's sweet! Wisdom not only changes us, but we have the ability to influence others and draw them to Jesus with the sweet aroma of the Holy Spirit living within us! Pursuing wisdom can also hurt a little...sometimes a lot. I can promise you, every time I read scripture, I feel a little sting. Why? Because I have not capped off my hive with perfection in Him. Without God's Word as our protection, to show us right and wrong, we are setting ourselves up for stings from this world. That beekeeper isn't going to go and handle those bees without her suit of protection...it would be silly when she has everything she needs to guard herself right in front of her. My question is, why don't we allow The Truth to protect us from the devil's attacks and stings?
Being a true follower of Christ is much like the beekeeper's job.
It's hard work.
But for all the work, comes a sweet reward. For the beekeeper, it is honey for the belly. For a child of God, it is honey for the soul.
Digest His Word, for it is good!

Happy Friday, friends!

There is nothing comfortable about some of the things that Paul went through…shipwrecked, stoned, beaten, imprisoned…
But, while Paul was in prison he made some powerful statements about life. He said, “To live is Christ and to die is gain.” (Phil. 1:12). He also said, “…and not frightened in anything by your opponents. (vs. 28). He also said that “…what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. (vs. 12).

What if God is trying to take us out our comfort zone to advance the gospel? What if we weren’t frightened by those around us who don’t understand where God is taking us?
Outside of our comfort zone we find our purpose. It isn’t always easy to navigate and we have to take huge leaps of faith at times, but we are made better. Better equipped to share with others on what God has done for us and better at serving wherever He calls us.
Our purpose is that in whatever we do (work, school, hanging out with friends, shopping, taking care of our children) it is done to bring honor and glory to God.

Our lives are not ours.

We are crucified with Christ and no longer live, but Christ who lives in us. (Gal. 2:20)

Our story!

Paint it up is owned and operated by Ashlee Canipe. She has been painting professionally for the last seven years and offering classes for five years. She is self-taught, other than a few art classes in school, but has always enjoyed drawing and painting...well, actually pretty much anything creative!

When she is not in the studio, she is the wife to Kevin and mom to two boys, Tanner and Tucker. I also enjoy spending time with family, traveling and being outdoors.

“I consider it a blessing to be able to teach painting classes and help share the arts with children and adults in our community. If you have attended one of my classes or purchased one of my paintings, I want to say thank you for giving me the opportunity to follow my passion and make my vision of "Paint it up!" a reality.” -Ashlee

The story behind Paint it up!

Paint it up! is dedicated to the memory of Ashlee’s brother, Jason Williams.

In January 2010, he passed away after a six-month battle with leukemia and a failed stem-cell transplant. He was always the life of the party, the jokester and after you met him once, he was instantly a friend. After he passed away, I am sure that it affected everyone differently, but for me, it gave me a new direction and understanding of life. Those realizations were, if you have a dream, chase after it.

Don’t let anything stand in your way.

You only have one trip on this side of the eternity and through Jason’s death, I learned how to truly live.

I’m pretty sure Jason could do anything…He was extremely smart and whatever he attempted, he always succeeded. I am positive that I would have never had the courage to pick up a paintbrush after 10 years had I not watched my brother fight so hard to live after he was diagnosed with cancer. I am fighting each day to first honor God, teach my children the importance of following your passions and also show myself that with determination I can do anything!

My dream of Paint it up!, had its grand opening on October 17, 2014 in downtown Chesnee.

We moved to a bigger location in February 2016. Come check us out!
