Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat (or drink), or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds in the sky; they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are not you more important than they? Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span? Why are you anxious about clothes? Learn from the way the wild flowers grow. They do not work or spin. But I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was clothed like one of them. If God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith? So do not worry and say, What are we to eat? Or What are we to drink? Or What are we to wear? All these things are the pagans seek. Your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for the day is its own evil. Matthew 6:25-34

It’s amazing what sunset out in the ocean does for me. For every sunset which marks the end of each day gives the serenity and tranquility that I can never describe. The sound of nature and the peace that it brings me is something beyond comprehension. The anticipation of what new tomorrow will bring as God illustrates at the moment His ultimate peace and love for me through the vibrant amber horizon and the cool breeze that touches my face, telling me as a pupil to witness his work of art and learn from Him. I can almost hear Him say…”watch, my son.” Then I can only obey and capture this magnificent work of the Master through my camera.  People make plans in their minds, but only the Lord can make them come true. Depend on the Lord in whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:1,3 |

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 The image was taken in Pikes Peak - Colorado Springs, while I was there photographing a conference for a corporate client. It’s amazing in places like Colorado, when you’re in the valley surrounded by these breath taking mountains, that when you look up at them you only see the beauty of it not realizing that when you clime these mountains, for every one thousand feet of altitude their beauty expands to something indescribable. For every thousand feet of elevation new valleys are discovered, new mountain range unveil, just a total new outlook. When I look down in the very place where I came from, (the farthest valley shown on the very top of the picture attached), the feeling at 11,000 feet is a feeling I can never put into words, there’s nothing like it. |

As I was photographing the festivities at Raymond James, thinking how each of the team will have to give it all they have and truly battle to win the game, it came to my mind that each of us has our own Super Bowl Sunday being played in our minds, God vs Evil. Take a look at the lineup of each team and see the key players from both teams. God's Team
