Sharing the Gift

God's Creation and Word

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."
-- John 1: 1-5

The Glory of God

How amazing are the things we see in our world? Sometimes we spend too much time working, worrying about our problems or just staying busy that we fail to stop and look at the incredible world in which we live. The framework for our incredible world was set in motion a very long time ago, but the beauty and incredible architecture are still bearing fruit to us today.

God's Greatest Gift

Sacred scripture, inspired by God, has been handed down for thousands of years and continues to have a great impact on us and the world we live in. It is truly amazing that text two thousand or more years old can still be so relevant to the world we live in today. The greatest gift bestowed upon man by God, was providing the guidance to do His will - the Word.

God is Madly In Love

Weekly Reflections - August 2009

I urge you now to live the life to which God called you. Always be humble, gentle, and patient, accepting each other in love. You are joined together with peace through the Spirit, so make every effort to continue together in this way.
Ephesians 4:1-3

Do you remember the first time you fell in love? You can talk on the phone with that person you fell in love with for hours and never get tired. Giving special gifts and finding ways to see to it that your presence in that special person’s life was always felt. You’re inseparable and just can’t get enough of each other for you are in love!

…Do you remember?

Keep the Fire Burning

When you have those strong feelings for someone it’s almost certain that you will do anything even if you have to give up your life to protect the one you love. Many have their own cause for doing so like the military laying their lives on the line and dies to protect the country and its citizen for which they love, paying the ultimate price just to see us free. On the other hand God the Father did the same thing in a much larger scale giving us Jesus Christ, as a sacrificial lamb to give up His life on the cross for the love of all beings, not just for our countryman but for every single person in the world, black, white, yellow, brown, just so we may have a shot of the life He promised us if we accept Him as Lord and savior. God is madly in love with all of us! Even after His death on the cross He gave us the Holy Spirit guiding, protecting, and molding us everyday. He just can’t get enough of us!

God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, so that whoever believes in Him may not perish but may have an everlasting life.
John 3:16

In return for God’s goodness and His love for us, how much love have we offered back to Him? Before leaving earth He asked, “Feed my sheep”. Have we gone out of our way to follow?

For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger and you invited Me in.
Matthew 25:35

Love each other deeply, because love will cause many sins to be forgiven. Open your homes to each other, without complaining. Each of you has received a gift to use to serve others. Be good servants of God’s various gifts of grace.
1 Peter 4:8-10

Be sure that no one pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to do what is good for each other and for all people.
1 Thessalonians 5:15

…Love never fails. God loves us no matter what and His love is unconditional.

General Message from Artist

I felt that God spoke to me in my heart. He says, “My creation is no less than perfect if everyone will learn how to see and appreciate it, your guide is in the book of life.” I must be obedient to this message. Ever since, I’ve been moved to truly see and appreciate His wonderful creation and words which truly give me peace. It’s not like I didn’t know how to compose properly when I shoot pictures nor didn’t know how to organize and gather the proper elements when creating an image. I just have a true conviction and the passion using my God given gift to capture the beauty of His love and creation in our natural environment.

We all are given a special gift, planted in each of us when He created us. Each are special and was meant to be used for His glory and to build His kingdom. Analyze your strength and find that special gift within you. Develop it and use it for the glory of God and you will be rewarded.

Appreciate the sunshine, all that surrounds you, the beautiful environment that God has given us which meant to give us comfort if we learn to appreciate it. All material possessions can all be gone tomorrow but the trees, the sunshine, and the free air we breathe, our loved one, all came from God will always be with us. Focus on loving God and family and do your very BEST with the given talent and undertaking His given you and He will do the rest!
