New Year’s Eve Sushi

“New Year’s Eve Sushi”

My family took a needed vacation to Hilton Head Island last week. We stayed at the Sonesta Resort overlooking the beach. It was an enjoyable break.

I did not want to drag my family along on my birding adventures, so when there was downtime I went to the beach in search of shorebirds. 

The sandpipers were on the beach. This sandpiper found a fish on the shoreline and was enjoying his sushi New Year’s Eve Day. I know he wasn’t going anywhere because he had a fish. 

I photographed him for quite sometime. Two seagulls saw the fish and started circling around. Before I could run them off, one landed and gulped the fish whole. Bully:(

Focus on the Lord

“Focus on the Lord”

This weekend, Megan, a former student of mine died from injuries sustained in a car accident. She was only 23 years old.

Life is so frail, and we never know when we will take our last breath. But God is faithful, and He is in control.

Megan is now with her Savior in Heaven because she put her faith in Jesus—the One who died for her sins. I can’t imagine what she is seeing in Heaven right now.

When things in life seem to be spinning out of control, we need to keep our eyes focused on the One who is in control of the whole universe. Just as in this photograph, I had to keep the camera totally still to maintain focus on the tree while turning the lens, we too need to be still and keep our eyes focused on the Lord.

Please pray for her family:)
