Reflections of Creation

One of the greatest things that God has given humans is the ability to see beauty in the world around us. I have never noticed my dog stop and stare at the beauty of a forest or the incredible colors of a sunset, but these things have the ability to stop me in my tracks in wonder and awe. This website is my attempt to capture some of the beauty and glory of an indescribable God by capturing reflections of Him that I see in His creation.

around the bend

On April 30th, Alison and I left Juneau on the cruise ship heading towards Sawyer Glacier. While the ship was heading up Tracey Arm Fjord, we were floored by how beautiful and colorful things were. At times, the walls were just these brown and black colors, and at times there were gorgeous trees covered in snow. I love the colors you see along the shoreline in this picture. The couple of hours it took going through this fjord ended up being one of the highlights of our trip.

The great thing was, we had no idea what was going to be beyond each curve in the fjord. It was quite a shock when we turned a corner, and there was the South Sawyer Glacier. Little did we know that people on the other side of the boat had been able to see the North Sawyer Glacier for a while.

Isn't that how God works though? All throughout life, He has these amazing experiences and incredible things He wants to do in your life. We just never know what's around the next bend. And what He shows you is probably different than what He will show me.

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
-jeremiah 29:11

the most important part of this website

I enjoy photography and I always find myself wanting more time to be outside with a camera. The idea of posting my pictures was born out of the love for my wife, Alison (alisonbryantwrites.com), who hates it when I do not take my days off. This website, reflections of creation, is a way to force me to get out of the office from time to time and putting me outside where I love to be. While a creative outlet for me, I hope this is an encouraging site for you, and one which helps point you to the Creator of all this beauty around us. God is so much bigger and amazing than we could ever imagine, and He loves you and me! What an amazing thought! He loves us so much that He was even willing to let His son, Jesus, die as a sacrifice for us. That fact is more beautiful than any picture you will see on this website. I hope you know Jesus, but if you do not, please email me or go to www.needHim.org. Thanks again for coming and stop by again soon.
