I think that at least one of the insights that came to me this Advent is worth sharing. I am sure that I am not the first person to make this connection, but since I had not made it until this year, I figure others haven’t as well – the connection between Christs’ birth and [...]
If today you hear his voice, harden not your heart (Ps 95: 7-8)

Click on picture for larger image Just a photo I thought worth sharing. I took this at a local farmers market a several months ago. I really like the color and depth in this one. Kind of makes me want to grab a Corona.

Click on picture for larger image I have been waiting to use this picture for Photo Hunt ever since I saw that “Pink” was on the list. It comes from a mall attached to a Casino in Vegas (Bellagio, I think). It shows bouquets of pink flowers that are “falling” from the ceiling. Have a [...]
