One thing led to another... by thewatersphotos

One thing led to another...

I’ve been away for a while and attributed this to poor “time” management. There is a lot going on at work (staff moving and having babies makes for being short staffed and having to “take on more!”), and at home, teaching a Bible study at church (Experiencing God), teaching Sunday School, checking on sick/ailing friends and family...and of course, I am supposed to be able to do this on my own strength, right?

Well today, I had time to look back through many of your photos that I’ve missed over the last several days and decided a great “come back” photo would be of a clock/watch to show “time” and how there just wasn’t enough of it to do all I had to do.

Then I began catching up on my Experiencing God lessons (I’m suppose to do these “daily” but getting home late, I’m just too tired, so I do a marathon study on Saturdays.). God spoke to me to reveal that it wasn’t a “time” issue but a “priority” issue and that perhaps I had come to depend too much on my own strength and wisdom rather than on His. Then I came to the end of Day 2, where we are asked to write our “most meaningful statement of Scripture you read today”. I chose Philippians 3:12b, “I press on to take hold of that which Christ Jesus took hold of me”. I realize that I am controlling my own life and not yielding (submitting) to God’s Purpose. I need to love Him more and pray for His help.
Love your message and the photo. Well done!

Hi Gary, This is kind of what I wanted to do when I took the picture of my church bulletin and the sermon transcript. Yours is artful and presents the message well. This is what I need to do, use my pictures to document my life; but try to create art within the documentation. This will be my role model.
