ABC's of Truth

I pinned this on pinterest months ago. I think it is so cute and worth purchasing! I wanted to make sure that I agreed with the scripture choices and such before I ordered it.
.
Being stuck in a hotel is very boring. So I decided to make it myself. It may not be as cute as the original, but I was able to use verses that were important to me and I am sure my kids will appreciate that it is handmade, (it will encourage them to create even if it is not perfect). :)
Please excuse the less than stellar picture. I'm stuck in a hotel, remember? :)
.
Here are the scriptures I chose. Feel free to use these to make your own alphabet, or choose different scriptures that are important to you. :)
