Portraits of Light

One of my favorite aspects of photography is capturing the light that illuminates the world, making it incredibly beautiful. But light in and of itself is insignificant until you consider that the greatest sort of Light comes from our Savior and the light that He brings from His justice and truth and love and grace for "God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." Therefore when I see light I want to remember that it is a reflection of our sovereign God. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. James 1:17

O LORD my God, You are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty, Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment, Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain. Ps 104

For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light do we see light. Ps. 36

"...because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace." Luke 1:78-79

Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart. Ps 97

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Ps 119:105

Ps 118:27 God is the LORD, And He has given us light;

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life;of whom shall I be afraid? Ps 27:1

Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” John 8:12

The entrance of Your words gives light;

It gives understanding to the simple. Ps 119:130

O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me;
let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles. Ps 43:3

He Who is the blessed and only Sovereign,
the King of kings and Lord of lords,
Who alone has immortality,
who dwells in unapproachable LIGHT,
Whom no one has ever seen or can see.
To Him be honor and eternal dominion. 1 Tim 6:15-16
