Christ is Everything!

A friend shared the "Everything" video with us and WOW...it leaves you speechless!! Such a powerful message!! We wanted to share it with y'all. You may have already seen it, but either way, it is a great reminder of where we would be without a Savior.

"Everything" Lyrics:

Find me here, speak to me/ I want to feel you, I need to hear you/ You are the light that's leading me to the place/ Where I find peace again/ You are the strength that keeps me walking/ You are the hope that keeps me trusting/ You are the light to my soul/ You are my purpose/ You're everything/ And how can I stand here with you/ And not be moved by you/ Would you tell me how could it be any better than this/ You calm the storms and you give me rest/ You hold me in your hands/ You won't let me fall/ You still my heart, and you take my breath away/ Would you take me in take me deeper now/ And how can I stand here with you/ And not be moved by you/ Would you tell me how could it be any better than this/ And how can I stand here with you/ And not be moved by you/ Would you tell me how could it be any better than this/ Cause you're all I want,/ You're all I need/ You're everything.. everything/ You're all I want/ You're all I need/ You're everything.. everything/ You're all I want/ You're all I need/ You're everything.. everything/ You're all I want/ You're all I need
Everything.. everything/ And how can I stand here with you/ And not be moved by you/ Would you tell me how could it be any better than this/ And how can I stand here with you/ And not be moved by you/ Would you tell me how could it be any better any better than this/ And how can I stand here with you/ And not be moved by you/ Would you tell me how could it be any better than this/ Would you tell me how could it be any better than this

Rain. Lord, Reign.

Heat Wave...need I say more? :) It has been in the 100's for a week. Grass, plants, and crops are dying & withering away. Creation is crying out in thirst. We have been praying for rain and have recruited friends & family afar to be prayer warriors on our behalf. Our Omniscient God hears and answers our prayers.

Last night at 3am, we awoke to the blessed sound of thunder and the beautiful sight of rain. Showers of blessing, indeed!!! Our Savior knows our need. I am reminded of Joel 2:23 - "Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the Lord your God; For he has given you the former rain faithfully, And He will cause the rain to come down for you..." May this day be a day of refreshment. Notice the works of His hands, Friends. "...be thankful unto Him and bless His name. For the Lord is good..." - Ps.100:4&5

Focus Found Photography

As many of you already know, I have chosen to begin a career in photography. I would like to explain the reason behind why I decided to call it Focus Found. When Ian began his job with CSPD, we felt the Lord leading us to move on from my sales job at C.C.Creations and begin focusing on the gifts that He has so richly blessed us with. Ian and I began to pray that God would reveal what and where He wanted me to be. Ultimately, it is our desire to raise a family with every intent of me being home full time. But I also wanted to be a help to my husband by assisting monetarily. After much consideration, we finally found our focus. With Christ at the center(as represented by the cross centered in my logo), we decided that starting up this business was the best way that I could live to serve my God, my husband, and my home. My relationship with Christ and the people He's surrounded me with are my most important priorities and capturing memories with my camera is just one of the ways that I can serve & bless others. My gracious God has always provided for our needs. I appreciate your prayerful support!

Thank you!
