This was the first image that I posted when I began the blog on November 11, 2017. This past week I reached an unimagined milestone. I have made a little more than 100 posts. When I started the blog I wasn’t sure how it would work out. I only knew that I wanted to use my photography and post regularly, more than my other blog which was once a month. I am grateful to friends who have encouraged me with written and in-person comments.
As the blog grew I decided that I would save my posts and every so often I would print them and read them again. I did that yesterday and I am surprised at what I found. I saw how I think my writing has improved. I saw how the focus has changed from just describing a photograph to the things God is teaching me through studying his word. I saw how the posts differed in quality. There were some that I really liked and there were some that I said, what was I thinking. What is most amazing is how God has given me words from his word and brought pictures I have taken to mind. I know this is not my own doing. I don’t know where the writing and blog will go. I am leaving that to God. I ask your prayers to help me discern what God is telling me. I still remember the retirement speech that my dear friend, Mary Charlotte Ball, gave at the college honors banquet. It was three words, Soli Deo Gloria, translated from the Latin, glory to God alone. I want so much for these words to be my life story. I pray that my website will always bring glory to God and be help to all who read it. Thank you my friends.
