“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians 3:18

Day 269 – Horse
“Do you give the horse its strength or clothe its neck with a flowing mane?” Job 39:19
(There is something about chapter 38 e 39 of Job… I guess is God showing that He is God… This morning I passed by these horses… I asked to go back there… I love horses… there is something about them that captivates me… and combine that with God’s word… What is there left to say?)
Day 265 – The waiting dog
“Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying.” Romans 12:12
(I’ve been wanting to take a picture of a dog for quite a long time. It happened today! I had a short gap between jobs so I got my camera and went for a short walk around and found the dog patiently waiting for something I guess in front of the house… Well, it made me think about how is my patience level lately…)
Day 245 – No excuses
“For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” Romans 1:20
(What a nice day at the beach… What a powerful verse…)
Day 236 – By the river…
“When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, Lord, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” Psalm 94:18-19
Day 232 – Whales!
“… my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.” Isaiah 6:5b
(This verse is a bit out of context I guess but I’m going to explain why I chose this verse… Well, today we went whale watching! I always wanted to go whale watching and it is so nice!!! I totally recommend it! We have so much fun, the weather was good and the whales and the dolphins were showing off!! We had a blast! Now with the verse… Well, I love the ocean and by now I think you can tell by numbers of pictures I take at the beach (I wish I could go more often…) And as the boat was going into that endless ocean I could only think about the greatness of our God… then I started to see the dolphins (I wasn’t expecting to see any… they are my favorite animals… it was a great surprise!) and then the big whales… I mean… What else can you do but give thanks to God? It was one of those “magical moments” that God let me see how big He is… I kind of hard for me to put into words, but I think you know what I’m talking about… It is not over yet… Well, then we go to church… The last worship song said this: “Glorious, my eyes have seen the glory of the Lord”… Then comes the preaching and the preacher uses this verse… Even tough I didn’t see the King like Isaiah did, I can assure you that through His marvelous creation we can see Him everyday!
By the way, today was supposed to be the last week of the “Sunday Praise Project”. I’ll see if I’ll finish it next week or maybe not… let’s see how it goes!)
Day 199 – Wise ant
“There are four things on earth that are small but unusually wise: Ants—they aren’t strong, but they store up food all summer.” Proverbs 30:24-25
(You know how we always hear that we have to walk with our head up etc… Well, I’m glad I looked down today otherwise I would have missed this scene…)
Day 94 – Looking for it…
“For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace…” 1 Corinthians 14:33
(How doesn’t love a lady bug?? It just happened to appear in front of me! I just couldn’t resist… It reminded me of my childhood growing up in Brazil where the beach we used to go were just filled with them! What a great surprise for today!)
