Image reposted from #drtonyevans ・・・ One major lesson we've learned in operating our studio is that "it's not all about us nor is it all about our artwork.' These opportunities have been provided by God for our blessings to be shared. They are to be passed along to anyone who has a desire to do more in life and grow in their relationship with Christ. When we realized that our creative art & business are directly tied to our effort to build lasting relationships that nutured models, clients, makeup artists, hair stylists, fashion stylists, and the diverse crowds of people in this business, we found our niche. We found our place in a busy, overcrowded, oversaturated industry. It wasn't just the quality of the product that has made us but the energy and effort put into the relationships with those involved. When we look beyond the photos to the real person sitting in front of the lens, that's when we find our true blessings. The moment we connect on a personal level is when the magic of photographic creativity takes a back seat to the glory of God's blessings being shared. Whether we are sharing a heartfelt moment, laughing about kids, sharing testimonies, or mentoring a marriage, these are the priceless gems. These are the ultimate blessings. What a wonderful joy it is to be able to meet you and love you so much. It would not be love if it wasn't passed on from person-to-person. Pay it forward. Open your heart to the needs and the lives of others. Photos are for a lifetime but relationships are for eternity.~~Crys & Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------ #faithfashionandphotos #faith #love #marriagementor #relationship_vs_religion (at Spring Hill, Tennessee)

Trusting in God to provide what we need is an example of faith by thoughts, but doing something, taking action, taking steps based on the promises of God is Faith in Action. Today, will we think about having faith or live in faith? If we live by faith, others will hear and see our faith in action. Our actions will demonstrate God's love for us by our love for others. When we elevate the focus of our prayers beyond the "me and mine," we will find that God equips us to do more with what we already have and He will replenish us with more than we could ever dream of receiving. Let's move our faith in God into reality here on earth as it is in Heaven. ~~twh #faithfashionandphotos #faith #relationship_vs_religion #christianity #love #service #godslove (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

#Repost #bridgechurchtn ・・・ "Don't fight enemies, fight fear." - Josh Howerton. One of the greatest tools that the enemy uses against the followers of Christ is fear. It's a legendary weapon that Satan has wielded with an amazing degree of success. In response, God repeatedly gave us His promises that He would never leave us. If we would be strong and courageous, if we would put our fears in their proper perspective, we would realize that we are more than conquerors. As believers, we have been provided with the full armor of God but we must take the steps to keep it on and carry it with us into every situation, both small & large. Our ability to overcome is not in doubt. That battle was won by Jesus Christ on the cross more than 2,000 yrs ago but the daily challenges that Satan & his minions throw at us often make us regress into old ways of thinking. They try to get us distracted so we're not moving forward with the plans God has for us, plans for good and not disaster, plans that give us a future and hope. They try to make us forget that we are children of the KING and as such, we are empowered with all the gifts for us to wage a successful war. No matter how far we have come. No matter how many times we have made it through the storms, there is more for us. As long as we are breathing in this lifetime, God has more for us. Keep reading, keep praying, keep fasting, keep believing, keep serving, keep sharing, keep hoping, keep loving... God is not finished with us yet!!~~twh (Thank you Pastor Josh for reminding me that we aren't done yet!) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ #faithfashionandphotos #faith #relationship_vs_religion #christianity #christianwarfare #spiritualwarfare (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

"You contribute nothing to your salvation except the sin that made it necessary." -- Jonathan Edwards. ------ For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) #scripture #bible #relationship_vs_religion #jonathanedwards #faithfashionandphotos #grace #salvation #Christ (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

From @intouchmin - Our ability to hear the Lord is directly related to our relationship with Him. For example, without hearing the call to repentance and salvation in Jesus Christ, an unbeliever cannot become part of God’s family. Unless this vital step has been taken, nothing else God does or says to that person will make a difference. Read | Matthew 17:5 But what about believers? How does a Christian’s closeness with God impact his or her listening? This is primarily an issue of identification. Once we receive Christ as Savior, then we certainly have salvation and are eternally secure in Him. But beyond that, God wants us to grow and mature in our faith. We grow in Christ by identifying ourselves more and more with Jesus. That continual process brings us closer to God. And so when we pray, we are not talking to some distant god out there somewhere. Instead, we are praying to a God who loves, sustains, and molds us into His own image. That changes how we approach Him, doesn’t it? Instead of crawling facedown before Him, mourning and wailing because of our sin and pleading for His mercies, we can come to Him boldly and joyfully, assured that He loves us, forgives us, and rejoices in our prayers. When we have unimpeded fellowship with the Father, we definitely hear Him better. As we grow closer to Him, our spiritual hearing continues to improve. Through Jesus, we can have unimaginable clarity and intimacy in our two-way communication with almighty God. Let the Lord know that is your desire. #dailydevotion #Regrann #relationship_vs_religion #faithfashionandphotos

"From its inception, the church was always intended to have twenty-twenty vision, metaphorically speaking. We were designed to be a community of people loved by Jesus and in love with Jesus who would have the vision to see the needs of other people and the willingness to meet those needs. Maybe the best way to say it is that as the church we were designed to be a people who would have the ability to see beyond ourselves. That has always been the intention for the church, but that has not always been carried out by the church." -- excerpt from Thou Shall by Jamie Snyder. Copyright 2011 Biblica, Inc.

You're a good, good Father! You have prepared answers to our prayers before we even speak them. ---------------- Matthew 7:7-13, Jeremiah 29:11-14. ---------------- #relationship_vs_religion #faithfashionandphotos #christian #christomlin #bible (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

Man says, "show me and I'll trust You." God says, "Trust Me and I'll show you." --Dr. Tony Evans #DrTonyEvans from www.tonyevans.org ---------------- For every level of faith we achieve, God has a plan that is for our best results in life. It isn't always the most comfortable path but it is promised to bring two things: 1. The greatest glory for God 2. The absolute best way for us to become more like His son, Jesus Christ. It's up to me to alter my decision making process in order to see the greatest results. My inadequacies become His opportunities to do great things through me & those around me. ~~twh #relationship_vs_religion #faithfashionandphotos (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29:11-13 #relationship_vs_religion #faithfashionandphotos #Jesus (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

My primary concern should not be, “What should I do with my life tomorrow?” but rather, “What does God want me to do today?” As you follow Jesus one day at a time, He will keep you in the center of God's will. -- Experiencing God by Henry Blackaby #henryblackaby #experiencinggod #relationship_vs_religion #faithfashionandphotos (at Faith, Fashion & Photos)

From #drtonyevans - What far too many Christians do is mix a little bit of God with a lot of world, and then wonder why they don't see a lot of God. #Regrann #faithfashionandphotos #relationship_vs_religion
