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.

A quiet peaceful shore like this reminds me of this quote from Tozer:

"If there's anything necessary to your eternal happiness but God, you're not the kind of Christian that you ought to be. For only God is the true rest." -A.W. Tozer, Attributes of God

    Have you and Alison thought of doing a book together - you furnishing the fantastic photos you do with the spiritual insights, and Alison with her devotional and spiritual thoughts. Maybe you could call it, like your blog, Reflections of Creation.

    That thought has crossed my mind, and I tried once talking David into it. Hmm...

    Sharilyn, yes, I am a night owl. I can't seem to ever grow up and go to be at times that real grown ups do.

    Alison, Chris, Judy
    I've got an idea - pictures and articles for Texas Highways! Just kidding - when Laurence Parent starts asking me for advice, I'll consider it. The funny thing is that I always dreamed of being a writer when I was younger. I even started working on a book in college (Max Lucado type of stuff). I remember I wrote some neat stuff about Obadiah.

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.
