Redeemed, Recovered … and a Giveaway

Redeemed.  I love that word.

It means “to recover by payment or other satisfaction.” (dictionary.com)  That’s what we are, you know.  Recovered … covered by the payment of Christ’s death for our sin.

Sometimes I think we lose sight of the price paid for our lives, for our salvation, for our freedom.   And, as women, I know we lose sight of how treasured, how beautiful, how precious we are in the sight of God.

My favorite verses in all of Scripture come from Isaiah (which might just be my favorite book of the Bible):

But now thus says the Lord, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel:“Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.  When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you.  For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.  I give Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in exchange for you.  Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you,I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life. {Isaiah 43:1-4 ESV emphasis added}

Redeemed … recovered, rescued.

That word is powerful.  That truth is life-changing.

When Dayspring revealed their latest product line called REDEEMED, I was all in!  I love every single piece.    They graciously sent me the chevron wallet and the large makeup bag to review.  I love both of them.   I mean, what’s not to love …

Are they not amazing??   I have been using the makeup bag as a small clutch because it is huge!  Plenty of room insight for the wallet and all my other “stuff”.    The wallet is also absolutely adorable and I have had several people stop me to find out what great little boutique I got it from.   This product line looks very boutique-y.  (Did I just make up that word?)  I like that.

I’ve added a couple of other products to my wish list.  I so would love to have this bag for overnight trips.  Isn’t it amazing??

And that purse?  I am really hoping it’s my Mother’s Day gift.  {Scott, this is hint #2.}

And of course, since I have already dropped by iPhone and cracked the screen this little cutie might seem unnecessary but hey – it is way cute!

Can you tell how much I adore this product line?  It really might be my favorite Dayspring collection ever!

Dayspring provided the products for me to review but the opinions about their cuteness are all mine and were not influenced by another other than me and the countless people who have stopped me to see where I found the adorable goodies.   Also, all the links to Dayspring, including the photos, are affiliate links and I will receive a commission from any purchases made through them.
