Photography // Thoughts || Springing Life

-

   Greetings, readers! This past weekend I had the pleasure of  sunshine and a dad ready to take me on a photography outing in our neighborhood. Spring has truly sprung, and many beautiful blooms adorn the town. Please enjoy what I captured, along with some thoughts and songs on eternity.




   Spring is a time of new life, but those of us who have trusted in Christ look forward to an even brighter awakening than the change of seasons. We have a perfect eternity with our Lord awaiting us. Life leaves us with unsatisfied longings. Though we must learn contentment, there is a certain yearning for complete fulfillment that nothing on this earth ever gives. Happily, we can know that someday our hope for a life without sadness, loneliness, or pain will one day come to fruition. Heaven is waiting...


'Cause heaven is waiting
Just past the horizon
Just over the mesas
Across the great divide
And faith is blazing
This trail that I ride on up this mountain
I'm prayin' I have the strength to climb

Rich Mullins, Heaven is Waiting (song here)


Life's always felt like a long and endless dream
Where tests and trials bring you to the final wake up scene
Now I'm not saying, I'll ever waste a day
I'm just gonna live like I was never meant to stay
And I, I'm on the outside
Earthly good with heaven on my mind
And I, I'm just a passer by
Home's a place where I have yet to be

Jadon Lavik, On The Outside (song here)
 



Home's a place where I have yet to be. 

 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, 
the conviction of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1

   Hullo all! How's life been lately? My life has been rather interesting lately, in part because I just started a new job today. Below you'll see what I wore; the skirt and shoes are very familiar, but the top is a new piece that will likely become a go-to item!

  Happy Monday, readers! Of course, you are most likely seeing this on Tuesday, thanks to my late night posting and the fact that many of you are in a different time zone. Is your week off to a good start? I'm currently getting over a respiratory bug, but I had a pleasantly low-stress Monday at work. :)
