Let the King of my heart Be the wind inside my sails The anchor in the waves Oh-oh, He is my song Let the King of my heart Be the fire inside my veins The echo of my days Oh he is my song You are good, good, oh-ohh King of My Heart // @johnmarkmcmillan & @sarahkmc Love this song so much! My favorite part is when it gets to “You’re never gonna let, never gonna let me down!” #lettering #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #freestylecalligraphy #learncalligraphy #thedailytype #typespire #goodtype #strengthinletters #craftedbyworkshop #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handmadefont #modernscript #thedesigntip #socalitydallas #socality #craftedby #thatsdarling #theeverygirl #theinstagramlab #gritandvirtue #christiancreative #pocketfuel #goodnewsfeed

In a world that’s growing darker by the day, we have the opportunity to be the light that people are searching for. People are looking for answers but even more than that, a Savior. We have what it takes to point people in the right direction. Sometimes all it takes is us opening our mouths to speak, or offering a hand, or simply smiling and being a listening ear. ⠀ ⠀ Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.⠀ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:14-16‬ ‭MSG‬‬⠀ ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #lettering #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #freestylecalligraphy #learncalligraphy #thedailytype #typespire #goodtype #strengthinletters #craftedbyworkshop #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handmadefont #modernscript #thedesigntip #socalitydallas #socality #craftedby #thatsdarling #theeverygirl #theinstagramlab #gritandvirtue #christiancreative #pocketfuel #goodnewsfeed

God given dreams require more than what we have to offer. I don’t think God intends for us to pull them off on our own. He gives us what it takes to have the strength, courage, and creativity to do whatever it is that He’s put on our hearts. We might not ever feel qualified or ready to start taking action on these dreams. That’s when we just have to take a step (or leap) forward and trust that He will lead and direct us as we go. In the morning when it’s time to get out of bed, I usually don’t feel “ready” to be awake. While I’m laying in bed I’m still groggy and heavy eyed. As soon as I sweep my feet onto the ground and get moving, I get a rush on energy to get my day started (... and then I head to the pantry to get Spark). I think it’s the same with our dreams. We feel most comfortable just thinking about our dreams. We realize it will be a little uncomfortable to sweep our feet into action. But when we do, we will get a rush of energy to keep moving forward. God will provide all that we need along the way. He will even reroute us if needed. ⠀ ⠀ #lettering #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #freestylecalligraphy #learncalligraphy #thedailytype #typespire #goodtype #strengthinletters #craftedbyworkshop #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handmadefont #modernscript #thedesigntip #socalitydallas #socality #craftedby #thatsdarling #theeverygirl #theinstagramlab #gritandvirtue #christiancreative #pocketfuel #goodnewsfeed

There is always hope. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.⠀ ⠀ ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29:11-13‬ ‭ESV‬‬⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #lettering #handlettering #moderncalligraphy #freestylecalligraphy #learncalligraphy #thedailytype #typespire #goodtype #strengthinletters #craftedbyworkshop #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handmadefont #modernscript #thedesigntip #socalitydallas #socality #craftedby #thatsdarling #theeverygirl #theinstagramlab #gritandvirtue #christiancreative #pocketfuel #goodnewsfeed
