Meditations of My Heart--
Photos and Thoughts on Life
Credit Where It Is Due
Credit Where It is Due
I like to make photographs, and I enjoy being praised for what I have done. But God teaches a different attitude, one of thankfulness and humility. He pointed that out to me recently. I DO NOT MAKE THESE PHOTOGRAPHS ALONE. I didn't create the light, or the technology which makes photography possible. I didn't buy my camera, it was a gift from my husband. I didn't give myself the ability to see through the camera in order to make an image which others find pleasing. It is right to use what I have been given to the best of my ability, but it is wrong to take credit for what I have not done. God made the light, the elements which are used to manufacture the camera, and the world from which these images come. He has given me gifts: people to teach me, eyes to see with, and a brain to process information. I am thankful for these gifts. He deserves all the praise, not I.
Ah ... how lovely! I could sit and enjoy this view for a long while. Thanks for sharing. I've shared a watery outdoor photo my sister took in South Bend, Washington at Small Reflections this week ;--) Hugs and blessings,
Beautiful view. The dry tree gives the image a mystical tone - of a place somewhere out there - where gardeners are not allowed - and nature is the only one who does their job :)

Now that's lovely. I can feel the peace. Sitting and looking at that view for a while would certainly soak away the stress.
