Sin-Shine

a pair of red sunglasses above the word Sin-Shine in big red letters with a yellow drop shadow

As i left the house this morning on my way to Bible study & Holy Communion, i took my sunglasses from my pocket as it was going to be a hot day today. As i slid them on my face the article i’d just read was still fresh in my mind…

Protect your eyes…

Research suggests that the harmful UVA and UVB rays contained in sunlight may be a factor in a number of eye diseases, in particular cataracts….read more at RNIB

After reading about the UV filter a few Bible verses spoke to me…

“I have made a covenant with my eyes;”

“Lust of the eyes”

And put on the new nature (the regenerate self) created in God’s image, [Godlike] in true righteousness and holiness.

We cause so much damage to ourselves with what we choose to put in front of our eyes. We tend to think it’s ok and not doing any harm. Just like the invisible rays burning our eyes and doing damage we are not aware of until it’s too late. 

“Is your soul crying out…burning from the sin-shine in your eyes?”

Weekly Photo Challenge: Summer Lovin’

 This weeks challenge reminds me of the 6 years (starting with our honeymoon) that we stayed in the lovely Old Hunstanton Lighthouse. It was a fantastic chapter in our sumer holidays that we’ll never forget! 🙂

James 1:9-11 Easy-to-Read Version

True Riches

Believers who are poor should be glad that God considers them so important. Believers who are rich should be glad when bad things happen that humble them. Their riches won’t keep them from disappearing as quickly as wildflowers. As the sun rises and gets hotter, its heat dries up the plants, and the flowers fall off. The flowers that were so beautiful are now dead. That’s how it is with the rich. While they are still making plans for their business, they will die.

Our 6th Wedding Anniversary

Steve  Sarah Wedding 2

To celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary Sarah & I visited Hunstanton, Norfolk for a few days. We’ve stayed in the ‘Old Hunstanton Lighthouse‘ for our honeymoon and then each year for the next 5 anniversaries, but this year we didn’t have the time to stay for a week, so we stayed in a lovely guest house in the town instead. I didn’t take any cameras with me and only had my iPhone, but I had fun taking photos anyway! 😀

On our last evening we decided to have Sarah’s favourite doughnuts and watch the beautiful sunset from the sea front.

I decided with the image below, that I would combine my love of sunsets with Sarah’s love of doughnuts. It took a few attempts to get the sun in the hole, but I got it in the end! 🙂

When we arrived home after a 6 hour journey, we had an hour to get ready and go for our romantic meal at our favourite restaurant. Our friends who own and run Sicily restaurant made it extra special for us.
