Every time I sell a print. Every time an article of mine is published. Every time a photograph is published and/or makes a cover of a magazine. It is all God. Always has been.

I was blessed to sell another print of mine on Fine Art America. A buyer from Grand Coteau, LA liked it enough to either purchase a print for their own walls or give it as a gift to another. Either way, I was blessed by it.

Less than two weeks ago, the young fiancé of a neighbor’s son was found unresponsive in the morning and had to be rushed to the hospital to recover. They had just become engaged the night before.

Yesterday, an extremely close friend that is older nearly passed away from a serious kidney infection before responding well to treatment in the hospital. She was doing great just a few days earlier.

And now tonight, my wife and I watched a 24-year-old NFL football player collapse and become lifeless on the field on live tv. He is in peak physical condition in the prime of his life.

My wife and I talked while the medical efforts were being performed on football player Damar Hamlin, who we are praying for, along with his family and friends. We hope he will be all right. These reminders of the frailty of life in such close succession brought to our minds a passage in the bible that is as relevant now as it was when it was written thousands of years ago.

“Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near.” ~ Isaiah 55:6

Life is short — None of us are guaranteed any extra days on this world — We are all born for a purpose — There is a God who loves us and cares about us.

My prayer for 2023 is that people realize those truths.

The Blessing of Business…

I had the blessing of a company approaching me this week about using one of my images for promotional and marketing purposes. It won’t be earth-shaking usage, but it is a nice-sized company and having them approach me out of the blue is pretty cool. One of the best parts about it is that I know it doesn’t happen without God sending them my way.

Why do I say that?

There is a passage in the book of Matthew, chapter 6, where Jesus is talking to people about their worries in life. You know, the universal items that can consume our thoughts. Will we have enough to eat? Will we have enough to drink? Will we have clothes to wear? Jesus told the crowd listening to Him that “… your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.” (Matt. 6:32) But then He gave them the reason He was telling them not to worry.

“But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you.” (Matthew 6:33)

That is why I know beyond a doubt that the people, companies, organizations, etc. that approach me out of the blue to do business have been sent my way by God. And it is one more reason I can keep working on applying another passage in the bible that says, “… for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.” (Philippians 4:11)

Not easy to do these days, but it is not something I have to worry about!

Have a Blessed Good Friday

God bless you on this remembrance and observance of Good Friday, the day Christians humbly honor the day our savior Jesus Christ sacrificed himself on a cross to be crucified and pay the penalty for the sins of the world. Now all those who have accepted Christ as their savior can say with an honest heart, “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” ~ Galatians 2:20 (ESV)

The new quarterback of the NFL’s Denver Broncos echoed that sentiment today:

God bless you and I pray you have a great Resurrection Day celebration on Sunday.
