Christmas Cranberries

  Photo forum lesson was on food photography and Kris shared about having it in context so was practicing that concept.   I am still not sure if I succeed or if the first one is too busy but I do like how there are layers to the image.  My pallet board table top and barn door backdrop is getting lots of use for these still life set ups!

There Is A Candle

Our song this month for photo forum is one of my favorites but by an artist not known by a lot of people, Susie is Reba McIntire's sister and has several gospel albums.  The words speak volumes and hold a lesson I need to apply daily.

There is a candle in every soul
Some brightly burnin', some dark and cold
There is a spirit who brings the fire
Ignites a candle and makes His home

Carry your candle, run to the darkness
Seek out the hopeless, confused and torn
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle and go light your world

Frustrated brother, see how he's tried to
Light his own candle some other way
See now our sister, she's been robbed and lied to
And still holds a candle without a flame

Carry your candle, run to the darkness
Seek out the lonely, the tired and worn
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle and go light your world

We are a family whose hearts are blazing
We raise our candles and light up the sky
Prayin' to our Father in the name of Jesus
Make us a beacon in darkest hours

Carry your candle, run to the darkness
Seek out the helpless, deceived and poor
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle and go light your world
Take your candle and go light your world
