Part I - To Sit with the Savior

Friday, March 22, 2013



Can you imagine being one of Christ's apostles...sitting at his feet....taking in his lessons and feeling Christ's presence/spirit?

This is what I pondered for several week? What are your thoughts or images?


Moments of pure gratitude

As, I sat and pondered over the last few weeks, I immediately thought about how much beauty I had been able to capture not only in the sense of physical beauty aspects but the spiritual as well. So that I would not forget , I wanted to share them. Because gratitude to me is away of become more like Christ.
