Sunset on a small town. The Little League Field across the street. Our view for 16 years but by the end of the year it may not be ours anymore. Change is coming and I am one who resists and hates change. #change #smalltown #smalltowns #freelancephotographer . . #letthemexplore #deeplyauthentic #freelancephotographer #lisahoweler #photojournalism #documentary #photographer_stories #thebeautifulreal #familydocumentary #cpcfeatureme #clickinmoms #hellostoryteller #blogger #documentyourdays #lifewellcaptured #yourlifeunscripted #documentaryphotographer #documentaryphoto #familydocumentary #fromwhereistand #pennsylvaniaphotographer #artofstorytelling_ig #calledtocreate #alamy #thejourneywithlight

True to Pennsylvania spring, we’ve had some sun this week and today we will have torrential rains that could cause some flooding in areas hit by tornadoes last week and flooding in the summer. We will have to see what happens but for today we remember the day Jesus died on the cross and that three days later he rose again.

I had ordered a crown of thorns last year as a prop for a stock photography session and it has sat on the top shelf of our bookshelf for a year, occasionally being moved for dusting or straightening of books. A month or so ago my son pretended to put it on his sister. The mock crown is made of real thorns. They hurt. “Knock it off!” She yelled. “That’s not my crown! It’s Jesus’ crown!” I knew there was a sermon, so to speak, in there somewhere but my brain is mush most days and this was one of those days so I just filed it away to think about another time. “That’s not my crown! It’s Jesus’ crown!” If we as Christians truly believe Jesus lived and died and now lives again, then we must believe the full story and that is that the crown of thorns, of pain, of humiliation, was placed on his head and not ours. And if he took our pain then he also took our sins, past, present and future. And if he took our sins onto himself then he also took our doubts, our loneliness, our health worries, our physical and emotional shortcomings, our failures and all of our questions. He wore the crown. He took the nails. He carried the cross. He entered hell so we didn’t have to. The question is, do we really believe that? And if we really believe that then why don’t we live like we do? | "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends." John 15:13 | "If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probably explanation is that we were made for another world." CS Lewis. Welcome to our loop for Lent. We are creating weekly offerings of photographs, representations of the meditations of our hearts during each week of this Lenten season. Next up: @theodoraofosuhima #living_Lent_loop
