About 365 days of marriage

I started this blog in April of 2011. At the time, Bret and I were wedding photographers and it was a way to share how marriage is more about the day to day and so much more than the wedding day itself. For about 5 years, I blogged about the joys and sorrows of the Christian walk, marriage, work, family and friends. I’ve blogged every day since a few weeks after I started. In May of 2015, we photographed our last wedding. Now, I have become passionate about simplicity, particularly in marriage, Christianity, business, travel and life. For a number of reasons, we have become minimalists. I’ve found that having simplicity makes life so much deeper, refreshing and joyful. I hope that this blog will help others see the benefits of living simply.

Day 2081 – God Glorifying Himself In Dirty Humans

I was looking back over some of my old pictures and the one below came up. I love this picture. It was taken randomly while we were camping with friends. I decided to pull the image and blog about it in some way. I was struck with the thought that you can see the beams of light so clearly because of the dust in the air.

Let’s look at this in terms of us and God. We are dirty, messed up people. There is so much bad and sin in our lives. But when we allow God to work through us and even highlight our sin, God is shown as so beautiful and we glorify him.

So if you’re feeling pretty bad about yourself today, remember this:

“But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong.” 1 Corinthians 1:27.
