Easter Resolutions

I know that many of you that keep up with my blog may not celebrate Easter and others of you may think it is just a day when bunnies lay colorful eggs full of chocolate. But, for Christians, it is a pretty big day- a day when we remember that Christ died for us. (I am not trying to convert anyone here or trying to preach it). In fact, it always feels a little funny to make such personal statements on my professional blog, but the two sides of my life run in the same stream. The decisions I make for my business are deeply affected by my faith. I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't believe that He is going to provide for me because we all know that a 25 year old woman couldn't be this successful all on her own.

Anyway, my dear friend Melanie mentioned to me yesterday that she thought she would start having Easter resolutions instead of New Years because, let's all face it, our new years resolutions rarely ever make it to Easter. I thought it was such a great thought, but I wasn't quite hit by it until my husband Chris sent me a link to David Jay's blog (another young Christian photographer- he is amazing, actually, and I can't really be in the same category). Click here to read this one photographer's post.

Maybe this year I will finally get it and truly live my life every day like I believe and know what it means that such a HUGE and Amazing God came to this teenie tiny place called Earth (that He created to show off His Glory) just to show us His love for us.. and that includes little ole me. It is pretty amazing if you think about it. Actually, it is a little bit more than "pretty amazing." I could be the queen of understatements here.
