It took me a while, but I finally decided on the Canon Rebel XSI.

Went on an outing with Mark and Jeanette to Shelby Farms and the sky was amazing. Besides the sky pictures I don't really like what I took but hey, I'm learning!


"That is why Christians are told not to judge. We see only the results which a man's choices make out of his raw material.  But God does not judge him on the raw material at all, but on what he has done with it. Mos of the man's psychological make-up is probably due to his body: when his body dies all that will fall off him, and the real central man, the thing that chose, that made the best or the worst out of this material, will stand naked. All sorts of nice things which we thought our own, but which were really due to a good digestion, will fall off some of us: all sorts of nasty things which were due to complexes or bad health will fall off others. We shall then, for the first time, see everyone as he really was. There will be surprises."
-C.S. Lewis (Mere Christianity

I'm not going to lie; this passage kind of scares me.

I've never actually envisioned myself without all the things that make me human; that would include talents and abilities that I see as me. But to just see my heart and my soul.

What will we see, I really don't know...

I'm such a doubter, I don't mean to be, but it just happens I guess.

Sometimes I need that realization that He can do everything, and the only one I can count on for anything.
