A Stormy Sunset

 Last night, before we left church, I had a chance to take some pictures of the storm clouds and sunset. I just wanted to share a few. =)

 

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.

  I'm sorry that I haven't posted this until now. We went to the Family Economics conference in St. Louis, MO and I couldn't find time to post. The conference was excellent! We all learned a lot and we were all encouraged in so many ways. =) We were blessed to be able to see lots of old friends and we were able to make some new ones. I didn't have a camera at that point, so I only took a couple of pictures of myself with some dear friends, but we made lots of memories. =)

30 day Proverbs and Photo Challenge: Day 29

Day 29! Wow, only one day left! =)

Today's challenge is: brightness. Here is my Proverb and photo for the day!

       My Proverb:

My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: 
                       Proverbs 6:20-23

       My Photo:

When I think of "bright", I think of either bright lights (or lighting) or bright colors. So, I have tried to share two pictures that are examples of both descriptions. =)

Today's challenge is: animal. Here is my Proverb and photo for the day!

     My Proverb:

The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord weigheth the spirits. Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.              Proverbs 16:1-3

The challenge for today is: joy. Here is my Proverb and photo for the day!

       My Proverb:

 Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.                   Proverbs 3:25-26

30 day Proverbs and Photo Challenge: Day 25

Day 25!!!! Wow! Can you believe how fast time has flown!

Today's challenge is: from a distance. Here is my Proverb and Photo for the day.

      My Proverb:

 Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding. He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot. Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee. Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased. If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.                 Proverbs 9:6-12

      My Photo:

I took this picture when we were on our way down to San Antonio, TX for the independent Christian film festival (I will try to post pictures later). =) It was early in the morning, the sun was rising and it was foggy.....perfect time for pictures, right! ;)
