Project 365 Day 119: Glory Seeker

Canon 5D Mark ll, 24-70L, 3.5 aperture, 1/250 shutter, 100 ISO

When I don’t know what to do, when I am tired, when I am empty and dry in my deepest places, I look for the light. Sometimes I see it right away, and sometimes I have to seek it out. Once I find it, I move to where it is focused and shining the brightest.

That is where the glory lies. I search it out like treasure, and when I find it, my heart lunges forward to capture it, to hold it, to dance in it. I am a glory seeker. Because the glory is where God dwells. He puts in on like a cloak, He speaks it into being, and breathes it into our world. It is the manifestation of His presence. The glory.

When I began this project in January, I had no idea I was placing myself directly on a path to seek and find God in my everyday moments. I just wanted to capture beautiful images, to be inspired and inspire others. But how could I do that and not seek God first in this journey? He alone holds the beauty that I seek. Therefore, this project has put me on a direct course to search out God and the places He makes Himself known, every day. Every day. I am always thinking about it. It has changed me. I see Him everywhere now. And yet, I want more. I want to see Him more, to tell His story, again and again through images. Through the work of my feeble but desperate hands.

May you see the Glory today. He is everywhere.

Psalm 104:1,2 ~ “LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty. The LORD wraps himself in light as with a garment”.
