7 Some trust, in themselves,
in what they have
or what they think that they can do,
but we will trust in and boast of the name of the Lord our God,
not in what we have,
neither in out own power.

8 The others are bowed down and fallen,
but we, even if we fall sometimes,
we are risen and stand upright,
by God’s help and mercy.

adaptation after Psalm 20:7-8

Here is what happened. Continue reading David vs Saul in Troubled Times

Photos of My Mother's Flowers from Botosani

For Easter I went to Botosani (Romania) to spend the holidays with my family. Just a few days before I got my new Canon EOS 450D . Going home to Botosani, to see my parents, was also a good opportunity to test my camera. I am really happy with the new acquisition.

Now that I am back in Iasi, I hope to post also the other photos I took. Here are a few photos I took of my mother’s flowers that she has around the house.
