Author: richardthebaptist
Retired, married to Juliet, and a Christian who loves books, writing, music, nature, gardening, and photography. I'm exploring prayer and spirituality, using my photos to reflect on God and how faith fits into real life: and I hope to stimulate and encourage others to engage with Jesus. Health really matters- and you value it most when there is a risk of losing it! I was unexpectedly diagnosed with colonic cancer, and had successful surgery late in 2019. Love the NHS, God bless them). I am still living with a life-changing condition of fibromyalgia and trying to support others with this illness and other "invisible illnesses." Life has been changed but hope burns eternal. Faith has a deep relevance in good times and tough ones, in sickness and in health. God has been good in my life and has been with me in all these varied experiences.

Capture the Glory- Look, See, Pray
September 19, 2026
Taking photos is a way of making an experience and memory more perfect; I imagine that when the “Shekinah” cloud of God’s Glory appeared, the Israelites wished they had invented photography! To “capture the glory” is a deep-seated desire in our heart; it makes the contact more tangible. … More Capture the Glory- Look, See, Pray

Old favourites are struggling to survive- our soil has clay deposits that go rock-solid in the sun, but quickly slide into soggy suet-pudding-textured-goo in winter. … More Rethinking- Look, See, Pray
Footsteps- Look, See, Pray

Life up here was tough and often short. Today, some of the houses are “second homes” for city folk; most of the others are used in the tourist trade. It has become a quiet backwater where nothing much happens. … More Footsteps- Look, See, Pray
