Snow break

I love snow, I like the way it makes everything look so forgiven. Tomorrow we are planning to go the mountains. They are all covered with snow... today Raphael's family came and we had a pick-nick at the beach where we had a great view of the mountains... :) All this to say that I will be gone for a little time, and to let you know that I will be praying for you as I also plan to do a little spiritual retreat. If there is something I really enjoy doing is spending time in prayer for friends, family, just anyone that comes to mind. I hope you have a blessed weekend/week and I hope to share some new pictures soon.

Blessings

Hi, I am a friend of Kaysie's. (Alabaster Box) I really love looking at your photography. France looks beautiful! Is it hard being a Christian in France?

I will definitely be praying for you - thank you for your prayers for me last week with my "computer fast". You are such a blessing!

Looking forward to seeing your photos!

God bless,

Thank you all for your comments. :) We are back, and have been back for a few days now, but I don't really know where to start as my break didn't really go as I had planned or imagined.

Morgan thank you for stopping by. Is it hard to be a Christian in France? Hmmm... I hope I can answer your question. There are quite a few churches and Christian bookstores and Christian communities here, not as many as in the U.S. but the number of churches, especially protestant churches is growing. We don't really have a lot of Christian radio stations, or tv stations; at school/public places you are not allowed to wear/show any religious symbols...no head coverings, crosses... But you know, I don't really think it is hard to be a Christian here. It's a personal daily walk; you have to make time to spend with God, study His word, pray... no matter where you are. Secondly there is so much natural beauty where I live that I'm just constantly reminded of God's goodness and His creation. We also go to a nice little church, and consider the members as brothers and sisters, we have Bible studies, prayer meetings, ministries... we can be well fed in the things of God if we chose to. Christians are not being persecuted as they can be in other countries. We can thank the Lord for that, and pray for those who are indeed being persecuted. I hope this answers your question :)... Blessings

Hope I can post some new pictures soon!
