Love Stepped Forward

“The oil pressed,

Blood poured out.

Love stepped forward.

In Him,

No doubts.”

“…He went out with His disciples across the Kidron Valley, where there was a garden…

Judas having procured a band of soldiers…went there…

With lanterns and torches and weapons.

Jesus knowing all that would happen to Him, came forward and said to them, “Whom do you seek?” They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I AM”… they drew back and fell to the ground.” John 18:1-8 (ESV)

This is enhanced by your photos. Again very Easter reflective. Somehow the profound clarity of the I AM has resonated with me. Indeed, I AM …ever was, am now, ever will be. Beautiful thought to carry today.

The King’s Highway – Jesus Revealed in Psalm 119

A Devotional Journey Reflected in the Hebrew Alphabet and Photographs of the Holy Land.

Can a mystery be discovered in Psalm 119? Did the psalmist, while penning the acrostic passages a thousand years earlier, see what the Apostle John saw when Jesus said, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End?” Color photographs capturing the beauty of the Holy Land beckon the reader to a visual adventure. Daily, grace filled devotional prayers invite the journeyer to stop and ponder the sights. The King’s Highway – Jesus Revealed in Psalm 119, once traveled, this Psalm will never look the same.
