If you're focused on praying character traits over someone, the honeycomb template is a great way to encourage some on how to "bee."

Or you could create a page as a personal reminder for how you want to "bee" more Christ-like in your everyday actions. 💛

I did this particular template several years ago before I had a stash of bee stickers. You could have fun embellishing it with a honey/bee theme. 🐝

The "Bee" Attitudes of Marriage post provides another example along this theme.

Looking for a fun way to complete your Fruit of the Spirit pages?

Use a photo and write a note which reflects a particular characteristic in action, capturing growth in progress.

I used a photo of my youngest son after a soccer game and wrote him a note about how I saw him growing in patience as he often had to wait on the sidelines for his brothers' activities, too.

What ideas do YOU have for your Fruit of the Spirit pages??

🌞☀️ Welcome to June and the kickoff to our summer months of fun in the sun! ☀️🌞

When you consider your devotional goals for this month, what comes to mind?

When I think of sunny days, I often think about how we're supposed to shine our light for Jesus. It reminded me of this Shine page my Mom started and never got around to finishing before she passed away. It's never too late to start being a light for Jesus - - - and we'll never be finished either.

Just like many of our pages and projects, we are a work in progress. Shine on, friends!

Light of God could be another topic to pursue if you haven't done it yet.

Not sure how to get started with a page?

Try selecting a printable template and simply coloring some of the background as you contemplate what topic you want to focus on.

Here's a quick video showing how a BQ template such as the Arrow Blocks can come together quickly with just a few steps.

I'm sharing the links to the monthly emails here, so you've got them as reference to review posts throughout the year. Newcomers, this is a great way to gain an overview of the BQJ flow of activity as well as access the links to the monthly Zoom sessions.

After focusing on Mom figures for Mother's Day, it will soon be time for Father's Day, which gives us an opportunity to pray over the guys in our lives.

The basic difference between the groups, BQ Templates and BQ Sample Pages, is that the one titled for Templates is for sharing pages started with a formatted BQ template. Any other freestyle pages are for the BQ Sample Pages group. Note: When I migrated all the posts from the community forum, I lost the ability to transfer posts between groups. So, no biggie if there's a mix in the Sample Pages group.

Recently we had a women's event that was basically a potluck with the theme "Taste & See..."

Before the event I created this BQJ page, using a colorful photo of a charcuterie spread from our son's engagement party a few years ago. I pulled out all the food-related washi tape I had to make a colorful border around the page.

I simply incorporated it as part of table decor as a reminder for the focus of our event.

How might YOU use a BQJ illustration to infuse scripture
