"Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee: And I will make thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing." (Gen. 12:1,2 KJV)
As children of God, we are part of the covenant of Abraham. It is God's will to bless us. But, an important condition to the blessing promised to Abraham was that he would not only be blessed, but that he also would be a blessing till all families of the earth are blessed.
I pray that each of you will be a blessing to someone in your days of 2010 - and reap the blessings that are in store for you and your families!
{A New Year - A New Path}
As always a new year brings a new plan - at least it does for me....I have to think about where I have been - what worked what didn't, and where I want to be.
You have to have a plan.
I am making several updates & changes to the blog & the website over the next few weeks, to get both up to speed with the news and changes at Selah Studios.
I am also on a mission to get new images from all of our recent sessions that were not previewed to the public during the holiday season, on both our website and our blog.
This past year has been overall an amazing walk of faith. From the planning to the opening to the first holiday season at the studio - it all was amazing ! Although not all of it was pleasant - it was on PURPOSE - which has been a part of my faith walk for 2009 - Everything has a purpose - whether or not it makes sense - Everything has a PURPOSE - Accept it as truth and what is to be.... and that sums up our 2009. All of it was on PURPOSE - one greater than I can imagine....
to that......
Thank YOU for all the support and relationships that were created with Selah Studios.
So after the past couple of months, which always has been very demanding time of year - working extremely long hours and usually 7 day work weeks- I was ready for some 'down time' with the family. I spent most of the Christmas break hanging out with family and friends. And to be quite honest - I left the camera down for the most of it....My family (and friends) live with me constantly putting a camera to my eye - I wanted to enjoy the moments and capture them in my mind.
We had a blessed Christmas, celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, with family and friends, as well as New Years that was also enjoyable as we celebrated with family and friends a path of new beginnings.
And now the New Year is here & I am starting to get focused now on laying the foundation for 2010 and working on sharing all the new work I created over these past couple of months, as well as previewing what's in store for 2010!
So with all of that - here's to a great year with all things having PURPOSE and Blessings to each of you - I hope our paths cross soon!
Of course I don't want to have a post without a pic - so.......here is our Christmas Card for 2009
- A BIG shout out to my lovely - Sis-In-Law for taking the portraits for us! Love you Roxie! -
{it is a trifold - so you will have to imagine it folded - or come see a sample in the Studio - so I can create one for you this 2010 holiday season!)

enjoy!
