I had a perfect view of the Blood Worm Lunar Eclipse’s peak, a wonder of God’s creation. I expected the entire moon to turn pink/red, but that never happened. The top of the moon consistently stayed white. I thought of Isaiah 1:18, ”Saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.” Could it be that the white at the moon’s top was a reminder that God is still forgiving and washing away the sins of those who believe in Jesus? As the eclipse ended, the moon slowly recovered its white surface, as if washing away the blood. There is more to this event than I realize.
I have enjoyed taking pictures all my life. In March 2018, I captured a real-life snowflake resembling a flower. I fell in love with it and began pursuing macro photography. My photographs became the illustrations in my book series, Washed as White as Snow. The snowflake designs tell different aspects of the story of Jesus Christ's good news for the world. I believe God creates and uses the snowflakes to magnify how all creation glorifies Him by telling the story of His redeeming love for mankind. I enjoy taking nature photos and sharing God's beauty in plants, animals, and landscapes.
