A Glimpse of Infinity - 30 Days of Photography & PrayersShembull
Introduction to This Series
Without God, I am lifeless (Job 33:4). I find it impossible to look through the lens of a camera and think to myself, “Wow… that happened by chance!” Instead, I am left in awe of the people He’s created, the skies He formed, the grass He grows, the planets He’s molded, and the earth He moves.
Romans 1:20 (ESV) says, “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.” King David resolved that, “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.’” (Psalm 14:1). I believe both of these statements to be true. God is who He says He is. And since we can see His workmanship and glory all around us, we are without excuse.
In John 3:30, when John is talking about Jesus, he says, “He (Jesus) must become greater; I must become less.” Personally speaking, I desire to live this verse out daily. Sometimes, I do okay; sometimes, I fail horribly. Thankfully, He provides immeasurable grace. How can I give God the glory for all things without getting in the way of myself? That is the ongoing question. To me, photography is one tool God has given us to showcase His work, and we don’t deserve any credit for it. More of Him. Less of us.
For the next 30 days, I pray that God will use these photos, Scripture passages, and prayers to inspire you for His purposes and His glory.
Eternal Light
PRAYER FOR TODAY
Almighty God, You are our lamp and You lighten our darkness (2 Samuel 22:29). In this world filled with uncertainty, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, has shone His light so we can see clearly. And through the power of the Holy Spirit, we have a beacon of guidance so that even in the darkest of times, we are filled with Your peace.
Because of Your eternal light, we find refuge and strength. May it shine brightly in us so we will be a model of the people You have called us to be. You are our salvation, hope, and deliverer; to You be all glory, honor, and praise.
ONE QUESTION
Am I consistently seeking refuge in God’s light, or do I allow fear and anxiety to overcome me?
