I typically do not slow down enough to write or read for pleasure on a regular basis but one thing I do is capture life's moments through the lens of a camera. This isn't something I claim to be good at. In fact, photographer doesn't even come to mind when I think of who I am. What does come to mind is I'm the one with the camera journeying through life as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend.

12.5.10 - Perfect Peace


















Each year I pick up a new PEACE ornament...let me tell you why.  No matter what life threw at Derk's mom, she always lived with a sense of peace.  The world around her could be so chaotic and yet she was at peace.  To me, she was a heroic woman.  I remember her full of peace even when she was so very ill.  She expressed thanksgiving that she could witness to all the medical professionals.  At her funeral the message that the pastor gave centered on the peace which was so appropriate.  Christmas was her favorite time of year and so we pick up a peace ornament each year.  One day my tree will be full of peace and I pray that each day God's peace flows from my heart into the life of those around me.
