(for in our weaknesses, he is strong - 2cor.12.8)
This is the most amazing thing I think I've ever come across... Jesus said this to me one night, after reading Jane Eyre, and feeling rather pathetic when I placed myself under Jane's close scrutiny... How do I measure up? At first I thought not very well, but then I realized I actually measure up very well, because it is not me who is measured!
Let me try and explain: If I really want to take amazing photos, if I really want somehow to have God to use my photos to excite people about God... but if I haven't the slightest clue where to start, or have the scope of ability to make it happen, it still can happen because of this amazing truth!
If I am absolutely socially inept, but dream of being an evangelist... my dream is not out of my reach just because of my limitations! God will far exceed! Because he has made Christ the head of everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way (eph.1.22-23)
This means that if I want anything, Jesus has already got it! and because he lives inside me, and because I share in his inheritance, and because he has adopted me.... Do we follow?
Stinking amazing!

Soundtrack du jour: Josh Groban
PHOTO UPDATE: I'm having a great time getting to know my latest third arm... a 10 year old version of this amazing camera. It's very similar to my current XTSi, also a Minolta creation. I really love the sound of this new one's shutter, (compliments of my amazing Uncle Paddy...) Although, due to this amazing sound effect, I tend to take thrice as many photos... oh well!
This is my amazing uncle Paddy, and me, two years ago.

Still more, dad and I are in the dregs of preparation for shooting a wedding in a few weeks... we're hoping it will be a repetition of our first wedding (which was, in a word, 'ideal'). Maybe if it goes well, we'll reward ourselves with an official name. Until now, it's been.. 'hey, me & my dad do photo stuff together... interested'? yes, I do hope it goes well.
