jewelry encouraging women in the hope of the gospel
A BID Farewell
Though the seasons change, His love remains.
Hi friend! It’s been a long time since I've last shared an update. There have been so many beautiful things The Father has walked me through over the last six years and I have sensed over the past two, Bella Vine slowly fade more and more into the background of my life. I wasn't ready to close it down back then (and in a lot of ways I wish I didn't have to close it down now) but The Lord is calling me to regulate what I'm suppose to and Bella Vine isn't apart of that list anymore for me.. (isn’t it frustrating when you can't do everything?! haha) I'm learning what it means to say 'no' to some things so I can say 'yes' to the things that matter.
I will terribly miss the avenue of connecting with you through this ministry and business - this dream God planted in my heart years ago, but I'm reminded of John 15:1-2:
Jesus said: “I am the true vine and my Father is the Vinedresser. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit, he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful."
The Father prunes even the good fruit He has grown in us in order that we might bear even more fruit. I hear these words echo in my spirit: "The glory of the Vinedresser is in the abundance of His vineyard."
How wonderful it is to be tended to and cared for in that place!
My time of tending to Bella Vine Jewelry has come to an end but I know there's still more fruitfulness in The Lord yet before me.
The journey is meant to take us deeper into The Father’s heart and His love for you and I is immense - I am grateful! I pray wherever you find yourself today; you know there is a God in heaven who, through His Son Jesus, longs to draw near to you:
“remember that you were at that time were separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.”
Ephesians 2:13
God has made a way for us to be in right standing before Him through the blood of His Son. Are you living life from this place of righteousness Jesus purchased for you today?
I pray you would be and that you would reach out to me if not.
All custom orders are currently closed and our website will only have current inventory. The website will be up until the end of the month or until we sell out since majority of things listed are just one of its kind.
Thank you all so very much for your kind, AMAZING, loving support and encouragement to me in this endeavor (ok, I’m crying now 🥹) It’s truly been a BLESSING and beautiful time. I am so extremely thankful for you and for all the life-giving moments I got to experience meeting you and making your jewelry. I hope all that I’ve made has served as a tiny reminder of what’s true in the midst of God’s beautiful plan for your life.
You are so loved. Let’s journey onward.
Farewell Beloved. May the Word of Christ dwell in you richly as you daily remain.
Your sister in Christ always,
