My digital photography to celebrate the wonder of God's creation in praise of His name. If a sunset is majestic, it's because God is majestic. If a child is delightful, it's because God is delightful. If a flower is beautiful, it's because God is beautiful. God did not create anything that gives us more pleasure than Himself. "Finally ... whatever is lovely ... if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things." - Philippians 4:8

The Fall: All of us like sheep have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; but the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all to fall on Him. - Isaiah 53:6
With the "fall" season upon us, I watch my daughter excitedly hop, skip and jump down the hill toward a herd of sheep and it reminds me of another Father, another Fall and another child ... and how difficult that would have been to watch ... but oh, what Grace to have allowed it ... what patience, what security in knowing there was a Plan already in place that allowed such tragedy ... for it was in allowing that Fall that allowed this fall in which I live so that we could become His child, know Him as Father and rejoice in being His sheep.
