Beside Still Waters

Description

“The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever.” Psalm 23 (NKJV)

 

Turquoise colored beads are the base of this stunning wrap bracelet from our Identity Line. Turquoise has historically and culturally been used all over the world as a touchstone to help connect earth to heaven. While we don’t believe the stone actually has power, the idea of being connected with heaven at all times can bring such comfort and peace at the right times! The River of Life is always at hand!

 

“And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.” Revelation 22:1

 

The pale pink beads represent sweetness and grace.

 

“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.” 2 Corinthians 8:9

White toned seashell disc beads add a fun reminder that God created all things and did so with purpose and intent.

“Let them praise the name of the Lord,
For He commanded and they were created.
6 He also established them forever and ever;
He made a decree which shall not pass away.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth,
You great sea creatures and all the depths;” Psalm 148:5-7

 

Crystal quartz bits are scattered throughout, not all rivers and seas are made of water, according to the Bible. This adds a bit of mystery, as we won’t know what this looks like until we see it with our own eyes.

 

“Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back.” Revelation 4:6

 

The single starfish charm is a really fun addition to this bracelet. A starfish’s body is covered with tiny spikes and thorns which serve to protect it from predators- just as the Name of Jesus can protect us from the evil the devil would send at us. A starfish can also regenerate one of its arms if it is removed- a work that takes time- but in the end, the starfish has no lasting damage from previous attempts on its life. Starfish also happen to be abundant in some of the most peaceful watering holes around the globe- many a lagoon or beach has been dotted with starfish.
