Right on the Money!

Nice guess, Joni! Ecclesiastes 3:11 is one of my favorite verses in the Bible. Josiah teases me because I have multiple favorites of everything. I just can’t ever seem to narrow it down to one thing.

This verse follows one of my favorite passages (the one the Mamas and the Papas made popular), and it expresses exactly what drives me as a photographer.

“He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.”

In relation to the previous passage (“To everything, turn, turn, turn…”), the writer expresses that even in all the repetitiveness in life, the good and the bad, there is a time when each stage reaches a point when its true beauty is revealed. God also gave us a sense that life continues after this, and we stand in awe of God’s creation and plan. (I got all that from the ESV Study Bible notes.) Pretty neat, huh?

This verse inspires me to always look for beauty and remember the deepness of each and every thing in this life.

So Joni, thanks to your brilliance, you will receive a Starbucks e-card in your email today! Thanks for guessing!
