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.

Sharing the Gift and the Glory

God's Creation and Word is bringing together a small part of God's Word, using scripture, and God's Glory, using images of the world we live in today. The inspiration for each piece, a reflection or other such description will be provided herein in the hope that the sharing will continue to inspire others.

Let anyone who thirsts come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as scripture says: River of living water will flow from within him.
John 7:37-38

You Will Find Me

Never get tired of seeking God no matter what. God is always there finding ways and uses so many things in the world as instruments of His love to reach and to communicate to us. There are many things and it’s really difficult to know them all but he can communicate through anything, individuals like you and I, and it could be through art and music. Yes, for me I feel His message and power most of the time through music. The other night I got the opportunity to watch Paul Tate & Friends in my church. What a great evening of God’s love through His anointed ones, through Paul Tate & Friends. God’s word and love truly was felt, touching the audience in a special way and truly the river of living water I felt were flowing through these devoted Christians.

Weekly Reflections - September 2009
Therefore, put away all filth and evil excess and humbly welcome the word that has been planted in you and is able to save your souls. Be doers of the word and not hearers only, deluding yourselves, For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not doer, he is like a man who looks at his own face in a mirror. He sees himself, then goes off and promptly forgets what he looked like. But the one who peers in the perfect law of freedom and perseveres, and is not a hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, such a one shall be blessed in what he does.
James 1:21-25

I will instruct you and show you the way you should walk, give you counsel and watch over you.
Psalm 32:8

God Loves You

Yes, the world is a very noisy world full of things that are not of the Lord. Many times we are so distracted in worldly things, so called noises of the world, that we can no longer hear God’s instruction or what He would like for us to do and follow. Be aware of this for God wants to continue to work on our behalf and would like to give us guidance and protection. He’d like to continue the molding process in our lives so that one day we can be the creation we are meant to become. God through the working of His Holy Spirit continues to place feelings of hope, love, and forgiveness in our hearts, but most of the time we don’t pay attention or we don’t hear it due to all the distractions that surround us. Make a point to spend quiet time before your day and before retiring at night and place your entire focus on the Lord, you will be amazed how God can truly speak in our hearts giving you His true wisdom…Make it a habit. The more time we spend listening and less talking, the more we will learn on how God wants us to live our lives and how we go about our daily tasks.

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!
