In the darkness of night, the light of the moon reveals hints that more is there; in this case, a tree. As dawn brings forth more light, more is revealed. What once appeared to be a total void, nothing, darkness awakes to a beautiful creek, blue skies, a forest, indeed a world.

Many times it appears that people we know, indeed ourselves, go through periods of darkness, not seeing, feeling, hearing or even realizing that there is so much more available. They are oblivious to the fact a better, fuller, and joyful life is waiting to dawn. They simply need light.

John tells us in John 1:1-5 (Living Bible) speaking of Christ: “Eternal life is in Him, and this life gives light to all mankind. His life is the light that shines through the darkness—and the darkness can never extinguish it”.

Jesus is indeed the light by which a new life is revealed. It is through Him that we can see a new world. Peter explains in 2 Peter 1:19 that the Holy Spirit gave messages to the prophets and that we should “pay close attention to everything they have written, for, like lights shining into dark corners, their words help us to understand many things that otherwise would be dark and difficult…then the light will dawn in your souls”.

Let the light of Jesus shine in you, a fulfilled life will emerge from the darkness.

I Found Him…in the moonlight shining through the dark skies.

I FOUND HIM MINISTRY

I Found Him... is a collection of reflections of finding God in ordinary places. I try to teach simple life-lessons from the lens of a camera.

Looking at life from the back of a turtle, the wings of a swan, or in the rays of moonlight glistening off of a creek gives a different perspective to what is truly important.

Readers of this anthology are encouraged to look at ordinary sights in new ways, and to be blessed by "Finding Him" every day, everywhere.
