Birds, Birds, Birds
Birds are some of the most magnificent and beautiful creatures God ever made. Their beautiful feathers and bright unique colors just amaze me. Each one is so different and yet each species is identical to itself. What ingenious engineering went into creating these magnificent creatures! Upon getting my Nikon 200-500mm lens I was out of luck getting the detail that I wanted photographing them. Not to mention getting close without scaring them away. All of that changed when I got my little hide, as I mentioned in my first welcome blog post. My little hide became like a refuge for me as well during the 2020 madness. It was so…

Flowers That Bloom In Your Soul.
Rain has a profound soothing effect on the soul. I remember warm, rainy, summer days as a child in my hot and humid southern part of the United States.

Because the bad days are the ones where you were forced to grow. On the bad days, you were forced to choose between staying in that pain or moving forward by letting go and learning.

Ultimate Immersion in God’s Presence
What do ocean waves, twittering birds, a majestic Heron, and an ancient village have in common? All of these things are stitched together to usher in the presence of God. God, the creator of all things, masterfully designed all of nature for our enjoyment and pleasure. Nature provides beauty, oxygen, recreation, and most of all refreshment. Do you recall the feeling you get when you come upon a beautiful waterfall? How about watching the sunset on a breathtaking sandy beach? God created the first man, Adam, out of the earth. It says so in Genesis 2:7… Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and…
