Multitude of Sins
Love covers a multitude of sins. If I can’t forgive others, how will my Father in heaven ever forgive me?

Thankful Thursday
I’m thankful for snow. It’s beautiful, it provides moisture, and it’s definitely a cozy feeling when you’re inside with some hot cocoa and a good book.
However, when you’re shoveling it, not so much.

Poor Vs Rich
I was reading through James 1 earlier and came across the part that talks about the poor and the rich.
“Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.” ~ James 1:9-11
It’s something easy to forget in my quest to make money. This life is literally as short as grass. It comes up and blossoms in the summer and then dies that winter. So just remember as you quest to make money and do fun/exciting things with your money, this life is going to end soon. We are all going to stand before God someday, and the state of your bank account will not matter at that point.
So what are you going to do? Serve God with your money or not? Remember we have a short life, oh so short, yet it seems like so long to us. We only live 60-100 years. Some of us are taken at 22. At one point people lived hundreds of years, but today it’s much shorter. Material wealth will disappear like sand particles running through our fingers. Friends leave. Who will you depend upon?
Love God more, and love your money/stuff less. ^_^

Faces
What’s behind your face? Are you beautiful on the outside and ugly on the inside? Or the opposite?
I messed around with photoshop a couple weeks ago and took some fairly old people and made them quite young again. Following a few basic rules like the golden ratio/social norms and such I can make people look beautiful in photoshop. But, what’s behind those faces? Just the normal or ugly face if I were to see them in person. It’s kind of like what all of us do to some extent or another. We have an ugly interior but we touch it up and try to look good to others. If someone were really to get to know us, they’d find out who we really are.
So, what’s behind your face? What’s going on in that mind of yours? Is it Godly? Is it full of the fruits of the Spirit? Does it put others before you?

Change
When putting aside sins to follow God and His laws, we must depend on Christ for we ourselves can ultimately do nothing without Him and His saving work.

Pictures?! Of Post-Apocalypse? Yes.
Instead of a blog post, here’s a recent photo shoot we did. Thanks to Winn – thewdesigner.com for most of the photoshop skillz. ^_^
