The earth has yielded its harvest.
    God blesses us—our God blesses us!
 Let God continue to bless us;
    let the far ends of the earth honor him. – Psalm 67:6-7

There is never a shortage of love and inspiration on hand to share, and the past few weeks have been no exception. Maybe that’s why people stopped by this page for more than 18,000 views during the month of July.

So here is a solid dose of goodness from my camera, and my heart: 31 days, 31 photographs. I pray that your experience of August is similarly loaded with blessings.
