Good morning everyone. It has been a rough week. I had somebody speaking lies about me and falsely accusing me yesterday regarding what I preached on my blog a couple days ago, so I was dealing with that all afternoon. It was very discouraging and I’m not even going to get into it. On top of everything else with Celiac, my heart feels tired and beat down from it and I am asking the Lord to bring healing and peace to the situation. Today, I am just going to show you some photos of the beautiful sunrise we had this morning. I claim love and forgiveness over all false accusers and their false accusations against me and I am at peace in Jesus. This is a new day the Lord has made and I choose to rejoice in Him and be glad, no matter what lying false preaching accusers say!
“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
Jesus speaking in Matthew 5:11-12
I took all these photos with my good Canon PowerShot SX50 HS camera. Enjoy!
After I took those photos, I went to the front of the house and got some really cool shots of the full moon setting in the west.
Here is looking back east at the sunrise from the front of the house:
“The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his
hands.”
Psalm 19:1
Thank You Lord for declaring Your glory in Your creation! Have a blessed day everyone! You are all in my prayers! Don’t ever forget, Jesus loves you and He died for you to set you free from sin and death!
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 6:23
“That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Romans 10:9
“for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Romans 10:13
Grace and peace to you all!
I always appreciated something a graphic designer I knew said. Movies and art try to imitate the stunning contrast of blue and orange but it only truly blends in God’s creation.
Thanks for sharing!

These pictures are truly incredible ❤️. I am sorry for your rough week. I have been dealing with some external negativity, too, and received this advice in a podcast from a friend: eat rejection for breakfast. Everyone is running their own race and we can only focus on being happy in ours. It’s something I’m working on – steeling myself against those who need to tear others down. It isn’t easy. May God bless you with your health as well, and Merry Christmas, friend!

***”Eat rejection for breakfast!”*** Yeah, sister! Battle that front line, baby. Eat ‘em for breakfast! Let’s get mean and battle the enemy (not flesh and blood though). The enemy doesn’t relent. In the power of the Holy Spirit, NEITHER DO WE! *WE ARE CHURCH*

It is well, brother. Paul and other apostles faced similar accusations against the gospel they preached. So we are in good company. God bless you.

You were fortunate to capture and enjoy such a spectacular sunrise, Ryan, just breathtaking. Wish I could start my day with so many glorious sunrises! I really love the “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.”Psalm 19:1 posted with your photos. I’m going to print and keep that one at my computer with one of your photos. Your decision to start your day with God’s glory and rejoice in Him is awesome! Saddened to hear you had another encounter with a nonbeliever (shows the good work you are spreading), it must be so discouraging when your message is to bring people to Christ and hope. But, as you posted of Jesus speaking in Matthew, you will be blessed with a reward in Heaven! I am saying a prayer that God does give you peace and healing in those situations, and people like that one just stay away. Thank you for all the encouragement and good messages you minister to us, Ryan. I am very thankful for all that you do to make your blog such a beautiful one that nourishes my soul. Much love, Mom

RE: lies and false accusations
I can relate. I write on “controversial” topics so I get some attackers every once in a while but I don’t engage them as much as I used to because it just distracts me from putting out the information.
