Welcome!

 Hello! My name is Faith. Welcome to Chosen Vessels! I hope you'll like what you see here and are inspired by my posts. 


Why Chosen Vessels?  
The name of this blog comes from Acts 9:15-

 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel. 

What will I post?
Once a week there will be a post on a 'chosen vessel', someone God used in a special way, for a special purpose. Either from history, the Bible, or even someone living at present. I plan to do these on Friday or Saturday, but that may fluctuate depending on the week!:) 
Also there will be other things. What I've been doing lately, special posts for holidays, a few random posts, etc. 

If you have any questions or suggestions for posts that I should do, leave a comment and I'll get back to you as soon as I can! 

May Christ have the glory through it all! 

Thanks for stopping by! Have a blessed day! 

--Faith--

But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand. Isaiah 64:8 KJV

Just a Little Update.

As you've probably noticed, this blog's posts have dwindled and have consisted of only book reviews since Christmas. Not what I promised, was it? I'm here today to talk about some things that I've been contemplating—and putting off, if we're going for honesty—for awhile. Now it's official, though. The decision is made, I'm happy with it, and I'm here to make the announcement. Chosen Vessels is closing. Okay, so that sounds much worse/drastic than this is actually going to be, but the gist of it is true. Sometime in March, I'll cease to update this blog. It won't be disappearing entirely, but I won't be posting here anymore. As I strive to strengthen the content of my main blog and create a better online author presence, I've come to realize that it's too confusing—not to mention time-consuming—to keep up with two blogs. Instead, I'll be posting something encouraging and/or something God has been showing me 2-4 weekends

"Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" ~ the Story and the Song

If you do not read my other blog, click  HERE  see what this is all about. :)  It has came to my attention that many of my blogger friends are not familiar with one of my favorite Christmas songs, "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem". If you are one of them, this is for you. ;)  When looking up the lyrics to this song online, I realized that they're not  exactly  the same as we sing at church. So below is the words to this song from our church hymnal. ;-)  "Beautiful Star Of Bethlehem" Verse one: Oh beautiful star of Bethlehem Shining afar through shadows dim Giving a light for those who long have gone (have gone)  And guiding the wise men on their way Unto the place where Jesus lay Beautiful star of Bethlehem shine on (shine on)  Chorus:  **Oh beautiful star (beautiful, beautiful star) of Bethlehem (star of Bethlehem) Shine upon us until the glory dawn (glory dawn)  Oh Give us thy light to light the way Into the land of perf

Third Blogiversary {A Giveaway}

Greetings, readers! I'm officially back from my May hiatus! (Yes, I was supposed to post last week and forgot. xD) If you'd like to hear about my May trip, I'd suggest keeping an eye on my other blog next week. And speaking of blogs... This weekend marks three years since I joined the blogosphere! Blogging has definitely been a journey for me, and one that I have very much enjoyed. I'm not sure where life will take me in the coming years, but for now I'm sticking with blogging as a hobby. Stories by Firefly is my writer/author platform, and Chosen Vessels is my little spot to share my thoughts and my faith. A blog wouldn't be nearly so much fun without all of my lovely followers. As much as I would love to give something special to each and every one of you, it's just not a feasible plan. So I'm doing the next best thing—a giveaway with two winners! First Place will receive this darling leather journal. The front has a quote from 1 C
