It’s been almost three years since our orchid plant bloomed. It’s beautiful to watch NEW buds forming. New things: grateful for God’s Goodness.

I love that God makes NEW THINGS, certainly giving me HOPE,
and I am sharing with you some NEW THINGS I have been blessed with.
The Grow in Gifts Conference: I am doing my first online conference speech entitled, “How To Grow Your Gift of Encouragement” on February 6, 2024I have also put together a workbook for this, which you can get for free with a coupon upon signing up for the free conference.

A little about the conference:
Learn how to discover and use your spiritual gifts with this FREE event.
Do you want to know your spiritual gifts and how to use them? It can be hard to figure it out on your own.
That’s why I’m so excited to tell you about the Grow in Gifts Virtual Conference! This conference aims to help you discover your spiritual gifts, get insights, tips, and Biblical guidance to help you nurture and cultivate them, and gain more experience and wisdom. For four days, February 5-8, 2024, Anne Markey of One Determined Life is bringing you presentations from x speakers who have found ways to learn more about their spiritual gifts and use them to bless and encourage others. There’s more I’d love to tell you about this summit, but I’ll let you check out all the details for yourself.
New Resource: “Encouragement the Jesus Way: Growing Your Gift of Encouragement Workbook With Scripture & Prayer.” In the “Encouragement The Jesus Way” Workbook, you receive encouragement tasks, reflections, prayers, and Scripture to develop and track your encouragement. By signing up for the free conference, you will receive a coupon for a free copy of my Workbook. Is it also available on my website: Purchase “Encouragement The Jesus Way” HERE with other Behold-Her Beauty Products



My writing journey: A new writing course, “Growing Your Writing Life” by Kimberly Phinney.
SHARING with you a little about my writing journey.
I am WRITING this January. And part of writing books, poetry, reflections, thoughts, and stories is reading books and studying the craft of writing.
I have been PLANNING this January writing since last summer, so that is why the Behold-Her Beauty and Blog is on break till February.
AS January arrives, I love how God always provides what I need. And that came in STUDYING my craft and a new course by KIMBERLY PHINNEY @thewayback2ourselves – my professor poet-writer-artist friend entitled, “How to Grow Your Writing Life.”
There are so many GEMS in this course that are opening my writing just as I need it now. Oh, I am in love with metaphors! They are lovely! Thank you!
PICK UP “HOW TO GROW YOUR WRITING LIFE” HERE

Journey Through Your Identity in Christ: Join me over on my Facebook Page to reflect, journal, and pray about our identity in Christ for January using my friend Tracie Nall’s Scripture Writing Plan at https://www.facebook.com/Mrs.DeborahRutherford/.
These are some of the NEW THINGS I have been blessed with, and I hope that they will bless you, too. Again, Behold-Her Beauty Blog & Podcast is back in February, so subscribe to your favorite listening spots.

I would love to hear about the New Things God is doing in your lives.
From my heart to yours,
Deborah
