My unveiling began 9 years ago when I saw something magical in my husband's sister, MaryBeth. I knew I wanted what she had but I was uncertain and frankly scared of how to start my journey. MaryBeth was so passionate and knowledgeable about God. I had cracked open the bible a few times and it was completely foreign to me. How would I ever come to know and love God the way she did? Finally the day came when I felt this propelling urge to ask her all about her faith. As we were land marked on her parents bed, I eventually invited Jesus into my heart. MaryBeth was ELATED!!! I was so excited too! This blog is my journey with God. My hope is to share with you intimately what He has shown me over the years; even before I knew Him! Past~Present and Future...Here we go!!!!!!!!!!!! My walk with God!

The Human Eye

Last year was our first year to have professional pictures taken of our family. Once I received my disk it was extremely hard to decide which ones to print. So...I printed most of them and slapped them all into frames. They are an assortment of sizes from 4x6 to poster size. Well...As luck would have it we had another round of pictures taken around Easter. More pictures to place in frames for me to adore daily. Cameras are truly amazing at capturing those precious moments; freezing them in time for us to enjoy for many years. The individual components of the eye work in a similar manner to a camera. Each part plays a role in providing a clear picture for us. So what is the difference between what the human eye sees and the camera? I have been thinking about this myself and think there really isn't that big of a difference. The human eye takes snaps and samplings of things all day long but when it comes to people...Do we really "see" them? How many times have you met someone and thought to yourself, "not worth my time." Or maybe you thought something else about them and went ahead made some of your own assumptions. All of this from that first snap shot you took of them. Are you following me? How about this? When was the last time you received a brown box in the mail and instead of opening it you decided to throw it away because there was no pretty wrapping or a bow:0) Do you think you may have missed out on something? We (me included) should all take the time to unwrap and scratch the surface of our brothers and sisters. I bet we would all be pleasantly surprised!!! Let's go get those packages!!!! Jesus loved everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!
