My Life

As I sit here and go through old pictures of me as a child up until today, I look back at my life and see all the amazing times that I had. All the blessings and the experiences that God has allowed me to be involved in has brought great awe to me through it…

Look what I got!

Two men had just walked through the gates of heaven to see a sign that said: “GET YOUR TREASURES HERE”. They both jumped in line to see what they would receive. The first man walks up to the desk and the clerk asks, “What was your name on earth?” He replied “Modest Jones”. The Clerk…

He knew my name

Every morning I go into Starbucks to enjoy my vanilla latte, read my bible and have my daily devotion. This is the time that God speaks to me through His word and shows me areas of my life where He wants to come in and make better. Not only that but I get to build…

Loving Jesus VS Being a Christian

I woke up with this on my mind and it really was a message to me. But I decided to write it because I know it will impact many others that call themselves Christians. When I was 13 I gave my life to Jesus and started to call myself a Christian. I would pick up…

Thank You Veterans for your Sacrifice.

Are we enabling our children?

I have been thinking a lot about how I was raised and how blessed I was to have a family that really trained me up to be able to live my life on my own. They pushed me to work at a young age and didn’t spoil me to a point of taking away my…

I AM FORGIVEN

I AM FORGIVEN. I have had countless people ask me what that means and where it comes from. They ask, Forgiven? What did you do? Or ask what I have been forgiven from? When I started Forgiven Photography, I wanted to do something that had more meaning than just taking pictures for people. I wanted…

Will you be forgotten?

We are but a vapor and then forgotten. As much as I want to believe that my life means so much more, the reality is that within a couple generations I will be forgotten. I will be a piece to my family lineage that is never thought about or remembered. That is the reality! Only…

Unrealistic Marriage Expectations

At the age of 18 I was engaged to a woman whom I thought I was going to marry. I had it all figured out and was the master of marriage; so I thought. What I have learned over the years from my relationships and from watching others, is how far off I was when…
