Baker Beach, some beautiful light and one of my favorite families….what else do you need?
Remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive. Acts 20:35
Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. Hebrew 13:16
One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; Proverbs 11:24
This past weekend I was so blessed to have been asked to shoot a wedding for this awesome couple! It’s funny, b/c they weren’t planning on having a wedding at all. They were thinking of maybe a quick trip to the courthouse and a nice dinner. It’s amazing to see what God was planning on for them. So many different people and parts came together to make this awesome night happen. I was blessed to be able to be a part of it. I was inspired and humbled by their awe. In their awe and gratefulness for what God had and was giving them and the generosity of what people were showing them. In awe of the love they were feeling and experiencing. At one point the groom looked at me and said- “When we told people that it was just a backyard wedding I’m sure they were thinking it was nothing big. But look at this. God’s work is amazing.” I love that all the glory, the work, all the everything was given straight to him. There was no question where it was coming from. It humbled me to no end. It made me realize how much I have to be grateful for. How grateful I was to be able to be a part of this and his plan. Regardless of what life deals you, as long as you stay true to him and his word it will not break you.
I did walk away feeling a bit guilty. I think I gained far more than I gave. It is definitely more blessed to give than to receive.
Please visit my friend Rachel and see how she has been blessed this month.
