The Fisherman's Lament

Sailing across the ocean blue  Singing shanties with my merry crew We cast our nets into the briny waters To provide for our wives, sons, and daughters. But when are nets grew heavy and taut We heaved them up to see what we caught. And what did our accursed eyes behold? Fish with scales that glistened like gold. We cheered as our nets burst at the seams. We were rich beyond our wildest dreams!

Sweetwater Creek


I made this video a couple of months ago using footage I took at Sweetwater Creek Park. I really enjoyed my time at the park. I loved walking through the forest taking pictures and videos and watching the creek flow over the rocks. It was all beautiful.

God's creation, which is all things including us, shows His eternal power and His glory. Sometimes I think about how amazing and miraculous it is that I have life and that I exist, and how amazing it is that people exist. We exist and have life because of God. He is the one who created the world and breathed life into us, and He and Jesus are worthy of all the glory and praise. There is no reason why we should not glorify and thank Him for everything He has done for us. God is truly awesome and He amazes me.
