FREEDOM!!!

I took a break from studying Ephesians in order to study Romans 6-8. I just finished chapter 6. It is so good!! :0)

Romans 6 is just full of "simple statements of fact". That's what the indicative mood means, which is used quite a bit! And these are no measly statements of fact . . . these are HUGE!!

More Changes! :0)

Through the inspiration of a friends sister, and other photographer friends, I started a new website today. It's just a small free website, a place to share my pictures.

ffphotography.showitsite.com

AND a photography blog. :0)

ffpphotography.wordpress.com

Yep, it's been a busy and very fun, productive day. :0)

Too Heavenly Minded??

I've been thinking a lot lately about the fact that Jesus was called the Son of Man - or rather, that was His preferred title. (Son of Man meaning that He was demonstrating God's original intent for (hu)man.) It is interesting to read through the Gospels with this in mind - that He gave up his "God-ness" when He came to earth and relied solely on the Father the way you and I are supposed to. It is easy to fall into thinking that He did what He did because He was God, instead of realizing that He did what He did because He was a man filled with God - just like we can be! (Acts 2:22, Luke 3: 21-22, 4:1)

Are You Serious??

I try to refrain from ranting . . . just a courtesy to my (few) readers. ;0) But I have to mention of couple of things I've seen lately - two things in two days!

It's The Little Words . . .

. . . that can make ALL the difference.

I know, it main seem silly to you, but there are two little Greek words that I really like. When I first discovered these words I got so excited, and now, whenever I am reading or studying the Bible and I come across the word "no" or "not", I just have to stop and see which Greek word it is. :0)

Like A Fish Out Of Water!

I love watching birds soar in the sky. (especially when there is more than one and they seem to be playing tag...) Or chase the waves at the beach. They just look like they are having SO much fun! Like they are, well, doing what God created them to do! :0)



Last month, as I was reading Evan Hopkins book "The Law Of Liberty", I was struck with an illustration that he used to describe what it means to be "in Christ". I don't think I can say it any better than he did . . . ;0) . . .
