season of rainbows

ok, so i'm finally getting around to a new post! the rain and storminess of the past few days has made lots of leaves fall already........
sad: because the leaves are almost gone
content: because its easy to take pictures of leaves that are on the ground.
happy: because i do love storms. :) 







this verse doesn't really relate to the post, its just one of my favorites. :)

"But let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious." 
1 Peter 3:4

slacker

ok, so i've really slacked this past week in providing another post. school has gotten busy, and just life in general! hope to get some more fall photos up here soon. :) i just want to share a verse that has been a help to me these past few week.

"The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Philipians 4:7

hope you all have a great day. :)

broken lady

i was sitting on a park bench at Lee this afternoon studying chemistry, when i noticed a beautiful yellow leaf on the ground. there was a lady-bug on it with a broken wing. :( here are a few photos. :)

whoops, there she goes!



he was a very studious little thing. or rather "she" was.

"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed spirit. "
Psalms 34:18

the little things are sometimes the most amazing-part three

the little things are sometimes the most amazing-part two

here are a few more from red clay. these are my favorite, just because of the detail and intricacy. this seems to run through most of my photos. :)









give me some feedback on these. which one(s) you like, why you like it(them), and what i could do to make it better. thanks!


























this kind of goes along with the "theme" of this post, so i just wanted to mention a little somethin, somethin.

the past few months i've learned that you don't have to do something "amazing" to make a difference, or to impact someone's life. God put each of us here for a reason, and He's using us in awesome ways, even if its just the "little things". some of us will be noticed for the things we do for God and others, but the important thing is, to be humble in whatever it is you're doing. simply saying "hello", smiling, giving a compliment, or just by being can really impact a person.

so anyways, that's all for now. hope you all have a great day. :)

"Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you."
James 4:10 (ESV)

the little things are sometimes the most amazing-part one

my family and i went out to red clay state park today. lets just say the weather combined with nature, me and my camera was my ideal way to spend a tuesday afternoon. :) by the way, has anyone besides me noticed how beautiful the clouds have been the past few days? i have just been in awe at the amazing artist God is! anyway, here are a few shots (out of about 350) that i made today. enjoy. :)

this is the little stream thats coming from the blue hole on the other side of the bridge. Roy, my little brother, was so excited about being able to drink from the fresh spring. he filled my frisbee full a few times, silly boy. ;)
a few fallen leaves in the fresh, little, blue hole spring.

ok, so i know this is total advertisement, but i do really like my chacos. :) they've been thru some rough times, as some of you know. :P
