From Day 353 to Day 356

Day 356 – A new beginning

“…Put on your new nature, created to be like God…” Ephesians 4:24a

(I was at the airport waiting for my flight to go back home. When I found out that I didn’t get the window seat I made sure I had the shot for today… and with all this talk about the world ending today and since the sky was kind of dramatic, I took this picture! And my camera just broke after that… Let’s see what happens tomorrow…

Well, now I’m back home… Not really excited about it… Is good to be with family, but now is time to face reality and find the right path for my life… just like a new beginning…)

Day 355 – Thank you!

“Thank God for this gift too wonderful for words!” 2 Corinthians 9:15

(Should I say anything else? – Sunset by the Araguaia River)

//

Day 354 – Grace

“But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.” Psalm 86:15

(I have to say that I had to Google Translate egret… I have no idea how it is called in English… Anyhow… what a beautiful bird… full of grace!)

Day 353 – Floating boat

“And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed.” 2 Corinthians 9:8

(Another great sunset…)

From Day 306 to Day 326 – Grace

Hello!! First of all, my apologies for disappearing for a little while… well, just 20 days… I’m glad that my project is about taking a picture everyday not blogging everyday…

So, I’m not sure how this post is gonna turn out… But there is one thing I want to make sure I say here… God’s grace is unquestionable… I’m sure that I was able to take the pictures because of His grace…

I’m gonna post this only verse for all the pictures except for Day 306: “See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God…” Hebrews 12:15a

It has been 20 days since I landed here… Is really hard to explain the feeling… very mixed emotions.. Is great to see my family but at the same time is as if they are strangers but in a good way.

The weather is not helping… it has been raining a lot.

I got sick. I’m good now.

The sun is brighter here.

Things here are the same but different at the same time.

You pass by places you used to go and it your memory pops out.

I’ve been home most of the time… some of the pictures is just from downstairs where we are staying or the porch of the apartment.

People here are very diverse… Like all different shapes, colors… is very interesting… and overall I sense that they are very relaxed and happy.

The beach is beautiful.

I’m adapting okay… It is not easy but I’ll get the hang of it!

Now I’m gonna go through the pictures and if I feel like I’ll write about them…

Makes more sense if you read from the bottom!

I’ll try to post more often!

God bless!!!
