A beautiful display of God’s glory and grace. The beauty of God’s creation is everywhere, even in the thorns that, in the realm of nature, aim to harm predators. Even in thorns, like those that were used in Jesus’ crown before his crucifixion. These thorns remind us that Jesus paid it all — His pain and suffering were for our salvation — and that in itself is beautiful. It is even more astonishing and proving of God’s glory that this beauty can be found in His creation.

Christmas Ornaments —

Thornhill Creations offers ornaments that are not only a stunning addition to your tree, but are also a reminder of the true meaning behind Christmas — salvation. Yes, Christmas celebrates the birth of Christ, but you cannot talk about Christ without taking to heart the reason he was born. To die on the cross and save us from our sins. These cross ornaments are reminders of that fact: that we have Christmas to remember Jesus’ sacrifice and our salvation.

The Covenant pen —

Marriage is a covenant — a promise with God; a recognition of His perfect, sacrificial love; a way for us to allow that same love to flow between us and to those around us. The signing of a marriage license, the way it is done for most weddings today, can feel worldly, legalistic, and lacking meaning. Signing a piece of paper at a courthouse may not seem like a covenant with God, but it is nonetheless.

This covenant pen, a cross made of thorns and turned into a nib pen, is a good reminder of God’s sacrificial love for us. It is a reminder that the document you are signing is a bond between you, your spouse, and God. It is a holy promise that cannot be broken, just like Christ’s promise of salvation on the cross is unwavering. Using this pen to sign a marriage license will remind you of the sanctity of that moment, but displaying it in a shadow box with the marriage license and a wedding photo will remind you day after day of the promise you made. It will remind you why you made that covenant and help you remember that day with reverence and love and faith.
