Look To Him...

I so often ask the Lord that I would be a light in a world that isn't so bright. Whether it be by my actions, my words, or my lack of the two. Yet, so often, when I fail (and I quite often do) my attitude is that of a failure or disappointment. Although we are called to live by faith and display Christ likeness in our daily lives, so often I focus too much on my external behavior and forget the focal point, the entire reason for our existence....Christ!

Break away from your personal concern over your own spiritual condition, and with a completely open spirit, consider the tragedy of God. "Look to me...."(Isaiah 45:22) Pay attention to the external Source and the internal power will be there. We lose power because we don't focus on the right thing. We are to preach "Jesus Christ and Him crucified" (1 Corinthians 2:2) The proclaiming of Jesus will do its own work. If I share my own words, they are of no more importance than your words are to me. But if we share the truth of God with one another, we will encounter it again and again. We have to focus on the great point of spiritual power - the Cross. - Oswald Chambers

The Leung Family | Lafayette, IN Family Photographer

I was asked to take some photographs of our friends, the Leung family, this weekend. I had so many laughs photographing this family. From their adorable daughter and her heavy/sleepy eyes created by the shock of the dreaded daylight savings time change....to the hilarious strives her daddy took to get her to smile. We also battled some crazy wind and bright (unlike November) sun....but over all it was great shoot! What a joy it was to be able to capture some great moments for this fun family! Here is a preview of what I captured from behind the lens.
