I found crafting KZbin channels about 3 months ago and have started to craft A LOT!!! And honestly it's the only thing that puts a smile on my face (other than my kids) And on most days I even want to get out of bed for!!! But with all that said I wanted to say thank you for that reading at the end of today's video, made me cry, in a good way!!!! ❤️❤️

Jesus loves you more than you can ever know. I pray my best friend's story will help you find the true source of hope and peace that the world cannot give. God bless you. Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a gospel tract.

I loved all of these pieces today but I am partial to the last big apple. I look forward to.your inspirational thoughts each week. We are in our 70s and have a 22 year old grandson with ADHD, ODD, and OCD living with us. He didn't finish his last year of high school and needs a lot of love and understanding. We are having trouble getting him the help he needs and the help.and patience we need to deal with the chaos continually in.our home. You just have the right help each week and I thank God so much for you and your ministry.

[@melissawriglesworth7123]

When my kids lived at home I decorated our house with apples for the month of September. Your vlog brought back good memories. Thanks.

[@victoriajohnson914]

You are so right about the pumpkin pieces looking more like an apple! I think that's exactly why I didn't purchase them at the time that I saw them. Lol. I don't decorate much with apples anymore. But...I think you have inspired me to put a few apple pieces out again. Thank you for this! Your attention to detail is just lovely, Linda! Thank you for your creativity you share with us and most importantly, your faith. I appreciate you so very much!🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏

[@debbierussell5164]

Linda you are an absolute sweetheart. I know you touch me thru your projects & your thoughts! Your voice is so soothing. God bless you & each of your followers that need it! 💕🤗 Until next time🍎🍎

[@jessiemerritt9147]

God is absolutely good. Ty for message. Love that people are doing apples for fall. Beautiful diys ty for sharing your talents. God bless you and your family.

[@LindasDIYbyDesign]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@kpinkkpink]

I know I’m 9 month late with my comment but I had to tell you how much I needed this specific craft today. It’s like food to my soul. 🙏🏻

[@LindasDIYbyDesign]

That is wonderful!…and I don’t think you were late in watching this at all. Things always happen at just the right time! 😊

[@bonniehalverson1320]

My favorite was the last one. Your final thought is an inspiration to me. God bless you with His love as He is faithful to us all. 🙏❣

[@sherig59]

I am going totally the opposite of everyone else. Loved all of the projects today, the chunky apple was my favorite. The very best part of the video was the beginning. When you get tickled and laugh at yourself it makes my week! You are a beautiful lady inside and out and I hope God continues to Bless you and keep you safe. God Bless and thank you❤

[@jeannetonnar4899]

Lol my favorite part…Supposed to be a pumpkin but looks like an apple to me 😄😄 Beautiful as usual ♥️ My favorite was the last apple project ♥️ Thank you for the encouragement at the end. It is difficult at times to see ourselves as God does. We forget how deep that his love is for us ❤ 🙏🏼 Many blessings sweet Linda

[@debbiegreen2414]

I love your crafts. I love your natural way of being silly and laughing at yourself. We have to laugh at ourselves. You’re awesome.

[@maggieflatt9686]

Beautiful projects. The square apple is my favorite. I tend to forget that apples are a fall harvest item, so adding them is a great idea.

[@shereevanausdal9308]

I love the hand-picked sweet apples sign. The red gingham ribboon/ fabric is so autumn! Reminds me of trips to the orchard with my grandma and grandpa. 😊

[@LindasDIYbyDesign]

Oh thank you Sheree! 😊

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

My favorite was the square apple because it looks like something I can do. I don't have access to any kind of cricut machine or computer to print out words, but I could probably handwrite them and it wouldn't turn out too bad. I love the bucket of apples too that is adorable! Actually they're all sweet 😊 Thank you for your words of encouragement.

[@karenharris7419]

some people see pumpkins and some see apples. I see apples as well. lol. all these projects are so cute. can't pick a favorite, love them all. nice change from fall leaves and pumpkin decor. can't wait to see next week's projects.

[@shabbypinkhouse]

All your projects are beautiful! My favorite is the last apple project with the stand. Thank you for sharing God’s message. 😍

[@vickimegredy9303]

These are so cute! I liked the square apple best also. I love how you can take just a piece of wood and make something beautiful. That is why I love crafting and it's great therapy!!! Lol

[@beckywalker1613]

Oh Linda, these are absolutely gorgeous 👍 You make it so hard to pick a favorite...I am leaning towards your creative process for making the last apple 🍎. Thanks for your encouraging words and reminder of God's love for each of us. 😉❤️🙏

[@Spoillygirl]

These are absolutely beautiful. I love watching you create. Thank you for sharing your talents and amazing word from God.🙏🏾🙏🏾👸🏽👸🏽👏🏾👏🏾💜💜

Linda I loved all your projects today. I just love watching and listening to you talk as you are so relaxing and calm. Thank you

[@cheryleaston6820]

Everytime you ask which one is my favorite, I can never choose. I do love the square apple because its the one I think is simple and unique, I think I could easily recreate it. But all of them are so very creative. TFS

[@erinplunkett4123]

I agree with you, my favorites are the same as yours. I love apples. They are my favorite part of Fall!

[@janinemaxwell4297]

Hi Linda I’m in Australia so we don’t have very many craft store and definitely nothing like micheals and hobby lobby and normally cheap stores like $1 tree when ever I get to the states I end up bring home an extra 2 suitcases full of craft stuff. I just love how you explain everything and make it sound so easy

[@sandraeasley9354]

These are all wonderful but the standing Apple is my favorite. All of your additions add so much. I am a quilter so have lots of fabric so have started sewing around everything I can.😊

You have a great eye to turn nothing into something amazing. Maybe I'll be lucky and find some of those pumpkin apples. They would be adorable in a wreath. I'd say those and forth project are my favorite. Thank you for sharing. Definitely look forward to Saturday so I can see what you put together. Until next week I hope you have an awesome weekend.

[@amymeyeraan8113]

[@tinahorton5980]

I love each of these projects... I think next fall I may do apples in my decor rather than the pumpkins. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@suefresina5918]

I don't think you can get any more talented. I love it all! I also agree with you about the mini and large pumpkins, they look like apples. Lol

I love every single project! It was refreshing to see something besides pumpkins. Apples are one of my favorite fall harvest items. We have apple trees and a small cider press and the grandkids gather them up then we press cider together. I seriously couldn't choose I liked them all. As always such an inspiration in both craft and words. My most favorite part to Saturday mornings! Love ya!

[@darlenedutt5045]

The last apple

[@evettreda3328]

Love them all

[@ginaray934]

I really needed to hear your message today . Sometimes we tend to forget His promises where we are in a downward spiral. Jesus is my Champion. Got saved at 5 then, had about 4 stupid years in my early teens but. the Holy Spirit kept me from doing anything too stupid. I love all of your amazing crafts I have the ones I have seen in my playlist. If I have to choose I guess it would be the last one. Stay close to Him always. He is arriving soon. Thank you for sharing your lovely projects. Love you my sister in Christ.

[@leeanngreen8306]

Hello there, such cute fall ideas! I enjoy watching the whole process. Thank you and also for the inspirational words. You're super!😊
