The ocean coast can be one of the most beautiful spots in the world, but out in the sea of life we can often find ourselves in circumstances beyond our control. That is when we need to cry out to Jesus, the Master of the Sea. He can calm the storms if we put our trust in him.

And Jesus said,"Push out into the deep and let out your net for a great catch."
(Luke 5 :4)
Times haven't really changed, Jesus is still asking us to "push out" away from shallow thinking and prepare for a great harvest.
This site is for people who love and enjoy the ocean. The sandy beaches were and are a favorite place for me. The sound of the crashing waves against the jagged rocks, the smell of salt in the air, the vastness and power that makes us realize how small we really are.
Each week I intend to post a new photograph from my many travels along the coast, including Hawaii, photos taken when I would go looking for subject matter to paint. I was a professional artist for over 25 years and my oil paintings were sold all over the country. But, my photo's that were often inspirations have never been seen before; I would now like to share them with you.
When I was about 40 years old, I had an encounter with God that changed the rest of my life. He asked me to lay down my paint brushes and follow Him; and so I did. Life took on a different meaning and in the process God had me change my name. In 2008, God asked me if I would leave everything. I said, "Yes." Now, He has given me new hope and vision for reaching a lost and hurting world by sharing what He has given me and taught me.
If you would like to see more of my photographs of rural farm scenes or beautiful landscapes; or if you would like to know more about Jesus, the God I serve, please check out my other blog sites.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight.
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

I am a son of God, and He has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor and the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captive and freedom to the prisoners; to heal the sick and to raise the dead. I have consecrated my life to Jesus Christ and have been given His sword and mandate; to walk in His presence and authority. Fear and hatred will be confronted by the love and authority given to all of God's sons and daughters.
Come, let us together explore new depths of Christ's love and the heart of Abba Father.
