During the lunar new year holiday, most of Taiwanese people like to visit temples to pray and make wishes for fortune, health and prosperity for the next coming year. Of course, I would like to share the joys of holiday to all of you. This image was taken at the Sanfeng Temple in Kaohsiung City in Southern Taiwan.

Some unsettled weather has brought Jersey some awesome cloud formations over the past few days! Taken from Gorey Pier, looking towards Seymour Tower on the South East coast of the island...
A HDR image of the beautiful, other worldly curves of the lower antelope slot canyons. This was shot during my 1st visit to the lower antelope canyon.
To compose this image without a articulating LCD screen, I had to literally lie completely flat on the muddy canyon floor with my camera hardly a few inches off the ground facing up through the opening.
It is one of those mind boggling scenes one would ever encounter in life!
“Cleanliness becomes more important when godliness is unlikely” – P.J. O’Rourke (American satirist).
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 18th of August is "soap foam". Even before the advent of the Coronavirus pandemic, I was always a fastidious handwasher: something drilled into my daily routine by my grandparents when I was child. Therefore, to whip up some delicate foam from my current bar of lily-of-the-valley hand soap was a pleasure to do for the sake of the theme! I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile.
Godafoss
Iceland
One can only describe this spot in Northern Iceland as an iconic location. We visited Godafoss on both of our trips and how vastly different the conditions were! In 2009 , we had the wind blowing in our face with a backdrop of snow covered mountains. This year, periods of blue sky , sunshine and the wind blowing back into the waterfall so we could shoot in comfort. This rock has been the subject of many images from Godafoss but I couldn't resist! 60 second exposure with ND500 and the black card trick held over the waterfall and above for all but 10-15 seconds.

Insignificant On Cosmic Scale But Godly In Uniqueness In Space-Time Continuum, First Sunset New Year New Decade New Era - IMRAN™
(My 97th Photo In Explore!)
What a joy to be able to live into another new year, another new decade, and, hopefully, a new era. I captured this beautiful first sunset of 2021 on Tampa Bay Florida at my blessed home in Apollo Beach.
It is an HDR image intended to capture the vivid vivacious vitality of this time in history.
In the grand scheme of things, it makes you think. Quite frankly, the moment is meaningless when seen on a cosmic scale — which is the backdrop of our time here on earth as humans, or as a species on a planet, or even as a planet in peril from its own inhabitants while it does its rounds around a fairly insignificant star called the sun. Even on a human scale it is a “non-event” — just a click that may not even register in the literally billions of photos that will have been taken between New Year’s Eve and the first night of 2021.
But here and now, the moment and the experience of this instant, it is a godly event — an absolutely unique spot, sight, and moment — in all of the infinite space-time continuum! Imagine that. I bow my head in gratitude to the Almighty, and in thanks to all of you for the love you gave, give, and will give me. Forever.

Introduction
The Mystery of Godliness (4) - Only God Incarnate Can Do the Work of Judgment in the Last Days
Lin Bo'en was an elder at a house church in China. During all his years as a believer, he felt honored to suffer for the Lord, and valued the knowledge and attainment of the Lord Jesus Christ above anything else in the world. One fateful day, he went out to preach and heard some shocking news: The Lord Jesus has returned in the flesh, and He is Christ of the last days— Almighty God! Lin Bo'en was puzzled. When the Lord returns, He is supposed to descend with the clouds, so why would He incarnate Himself and do His work in secret? What mysteries were hidden behind God's incarnation? If the Lord has truly returned, why haven't we been raptured? … An intense debate unfolds between Lin Bo'en and his co-workers and the preachers from the Church of Almighty God … Will they finally be able to understand that Almighty God is the return of the Lord Jesus, the appearance of God in the flesh?

We just need to reach higher and visit the temple within which everyone of us possesses. One that is not devoid of an inch of God and Godliness. Airavatesvara Temple is a reflection of the temple within us.
Unfortunately, many people think that patience is most predominately demonstrated by someone who has an easy going, laid-back attitude. But, on the contrary, patience is not some passive nuance of someone’s character; it is an active, exhibited virtue. It is a virtue of trust. To exercise trust implies that we are trusting in someone greater than ourselves. It is no wonder the world is so impatient. Those who do not know God can only trust in themselves, for there is no one greater in whom they can place their trust. Their confidence is self-confidence, their esteem is self-esteem, and their reliance is self-reliance… If we trust in ourselves, then we are a hopeless people. But we are the people of God who place our trust in the sovereign Creator and Sustainer of all things. Indeed, we do not know patience apart from Him; we are patient precisely because He is patient toward us, enduring with us to the very end. Therefore, we live coram Deo, for in Him we live, move, and have our being, and in Him our patience is perfected. - Burk Parson

Godly Growth
Everything has become digitized
Everything has been even more effortless
Living life exponentially faster
But feeling incomplete
Pushing against the limits of our biosphere
Whilst disregarding the contradictory knowledge
There is only a thin blue line that separates us from the eternal darkness of space
Happy is the man ... his delights is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a
tree planted by streams of water, that yields its fruit in
its season, and its leaf does not wither.
- Psalms 1: 1-3
...if you believe that sorta thing.
I believe this is a nifty sign. It's still there, and the Cleaners still in business.
First Huayra and first Pagani in the streets in a decade.

Introduction
It is recorded clearly in the Bible that the Lord Jesus is Christ, that He is the Son of God. Yet theEastern Lightning testifies that the incarnate Christ is the manifestation of God, that He is God Himself. So is the incarnate Christ the Son of God? Or is He God Himself? >Almighty God says, "'Jesus is the beloved Son of God, in whom He is well pleased'.... That was God bearing witness to Himself, but merely from a different perspective, that of the Spirit in heaven bearing witness to His own incarnation. Jesus is His incarnation, not His Son in heaven. Do you understand? Do not the words of Jesus, 'The Father is in Me and I am in the Father,' indicate that They are one Spirit? And is it not because of the incarnation that They were separated between heaven and earth? In reality, They are still one; no matter what, it is simply God bearing witness to Himself"

An Atheist in me tells me that there is no white robed, big bearded gentleman called "God" sitting up there and managing this vast cosmos. Period.
Now that said & put aside, I surely "see," mind you I didn't use the word "believe," in the "Godliness" that surrounds us. A walk in the mist laden forest on a cold morning gives me ample evidences of Godliness that nature bestows us every day & night. There is divinity in the sun light that percolates the mist & lights up the dew drops on the wet carpet of the forest. I find these daily skirmishes with the forces of environment very spiritual. I like my silence & solitude when I bow my head to the various elements of nature & thank my stars for the opportunity to co- exist along with them on this beautiful planet.
May this heavenly light continue to guide me & all of us. Ameen.

I think this is the coolest church I have ever seen. I could not find a bad angle for this thing. The shape seemed to be pleasing to my math sense from whichever direction I composed the shot.
This is my second shot of this place. You can see the other if you visit the Iceland set here- www.flickr.com/photos/stuckincustoms/sets/721575945282475...
Godly Hands Night Growth
My life has been nothing but a failure - Monet
Each night perfectionism
Each night insomnia
Each night dealing with my thinking difficulties
Dealing with "what ifs”
Dealing with “if onlys"
This way of thinking
This epidemic
It is the sickness, sadness, and self-defeating behavior
Of only seeing failure
A Godly Sunset, Iceland. I captured this shot as we were heading towards Stokness to catch the sunset. Far away is the Vatnajokull Glacier, the biggest glacier in Europe and to be honest being able to see it engulfed by the sun rays is something that's like a dream yet real.
Spectacular!

But the godly will flourish like palm trees
and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon.
For they are transplanted to the Lord’s own house.
They flourish in the courts of our God.
Even in old age they will still produce fruit;
they will remain vital and green.
They will declare, “The Lord is just!
He is my rock!
There is no evil in him!”
[Psalm 92:12-15 NLT]
5 MORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)
2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)
3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)
4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)
5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)
Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!
