This is where God is.
In the present.
Wherever you are - be all there!

"Life is not an emergency. Life is eucharisteo - grace, thanksgiving, joy!" - Ann Voskamp (One Thousand Gifts)
"Eucharist is the only full and real response of man to God's creation, redemption, and gift of Heaven." ~ Alexander Schmemann
"I have lived the runner, panting ahead in worry, pounding back in regrets, terrified to live in the present, because here-time asks me to do the hardest of all: Just open wide and receive. This is where God is. In the present. When I am present - I meet I AM, the very presence of a present God. Here is the only place I can love Him."

Somebody's having fun with a photo program! :)
I should give credit where credit is due! Rachael A. took almost all of these pics. The work is hers - I know NOTHING. (I didn't even know she was taking them. I thought she was texting or something....that's the kind of techy wiz that I am!)
just for the record. i don't believe in texting when spending time with beloved friends. :)
of COURSE i was taking pictures!
haha :)
Wowie...those ARE awesome pics! Can Rachael A. be my friend and come chronicle my life for me? :-) Love, love, love 'em. (LOVE your hair, too, Ame!)
loved all the pictures too! Soooo great to 'see' you Ame! Even if it's the side of your head and your backside (which still is fabulous btw...you've always had an amazing butt! ;). Makes me miss you even more! xoxooxo
