Life Is Good

When I first got my Mac I wanted to learn how to use the web cam and photo program, which coordinated with it. So I began snapping shots of myself now and then to experiment with it. Then I wanted to learn the movie program and decided to try and make a video with it using the web cam pics. Usually I did not like myself in photos and avoided cameras a lot in the past. But I saw something different in the close up shots I recently took. I did not see a beautiful woman in the photos of the video. What I saw was a confident woman who loves Christ. I saw my confidence, which I found by learning who I really was in Christ Jesus and accepting his unconditional love for me more and more over the years. I did not see the woman who has been so sick with great physical illness for so long.I saw the joy, vibrance, and strength Christ has given me through all of the physical suffering and more. So, if there is anything lovely or beautiful in the photos of the video it is from Christ my Lord, for he is all together lovely. He is altogether perfect and his ways are just and true. Often, when I would be so weak, physically I would try to keep my mind busy meditating on God, reading, or doing something on the computer. Most of my work on the computer is constructive, but I do find time for fun, too. And if that keeps my mind busy when not able to do anything else, then that is constructive. Also, the creative process can be very therapeutic as long as it is fun not if we stress ourselves out over it! Finally, I thought it would be fun to share my playful attempts to learn these software programs. So, then, here it is. Enjoy!
