as many of you know, my daughter — Hannah — from the blog Aspire, is taking a blogging break. She went on a retreat this weekend with our youth group where she realized she needed to take a stand. Part of that stand was stepping back, reflecting, and truly giving her blog to the Lord.
She asked me if I would host Lovely Photo Wednesday for her until she returns. Of course I told her that I would — because I love her — and because I love the spirit behind Lovely Photo Wednesday.
Today’s picture? Of my lovely Hannah’s feet perched on top of the leaves at camp. She’s taking a stand.
She’s got me thinking about blogging, about life, about choices. Am I taking a stand? Are you?
Thanks for linking up. I’m grateful — I’d love to see this continue. 🙂

Your Hannah has a beautiful heart. Her voice is amazing, she will be a pillar to so so many people…you are blessed. So glad to meet you!
I love this picture… and more so, I love its significance. You’re blessed with a wonderful daughter. 🙂
I hope she thoroughly enjoys her retreat and whatever she decides to do. Lovely picture, by the way!
Your Hannah is precious! I love her heart for the Lord and her desire to surrender all that she has back to Him. This picture is makes such a statement!
Praying!
Hebrews 6:17-20 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

i loved hearing hannah sing! so beautiful! love this picture too. you must be one proud mama… she has a beautiful heart.
Beautiful photograph and you must be a very proud mama. Sometimes I think it would do us all some good to step back from our blogs for a minute and really think about the directions we are taking in life 🙂
It seems like there is a lot of thinking about life and choices lately. My daughter recently experienced a situation where she had to take a stand for what she thought was right. I’m very proud of her.
Cool photo. Love the contrast of the shoes and the leaves.
LOVE that capture! So sweet.
You have an amazing daughter. I loved her post. So very true and it has caused me to step back. Lovely photo.
Hi there.
Firstly, I just wanted to say that I think that you have the most wonderful family!! Hannah’s post was so beautifully honest, and truly touching. I am off to explore your blog as well, but just wanted to thank you for hosting.

Your Hannah is such an inspiration! I can only imagine all that the Lord has in store for her. Love her commitment and stand and it speaks volumns to me.
And, might I add, Hannah is a blessed young lady to have you as her Mom.
Blessings galore!

Your daughter is such an amazing child of God! I pray everyday that my daughters turn out like her. You are so blessed! That picture is beautiful!

I went looking for Hannas’ WW post and found her post. I am praying for her and guidance. thank you for taking over for her, Hanna has a special eye & touch with her photos, that really can touch you at times. This is a great example, her funny shoes almost buried in the fall leaves. ~hugs & Blessings~

Always such comforting words…praying in Seattle!
Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
