Nice Save

ImageWe spent our entire Saturday at a volleyball tournament. Isn’t it funny how tired you get from just sitting around all day? And it’s not even like we’ve earned the right to complain about how tired we are…those girls are the ones who exerted constant sweat and effort all day, not us. They are the ones who have something to show for the time spent that day. We just have our flat backsides!

I don’t want that to be all I have to show for the time given to me. I want my time on this earth to count for something. Not necessarily riches and fame for I’ve seen what that can do to people…and I prefer my quiet life. But at the end of the day, I want to know that I wasn’t wasteful with the gift of time given to me. Likewise, I want my photography to count for something, to benefit others, to make a difference somehow…big or small.

“Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.” Ephesians 5:15-17 (NIV)
