"Joy is not gush: joy is not jolliness. Joy is simply perfect acquiescence in God's will, because the soul delights itself in God himself... rejoice in the will of God, and in nothing else. Bow down your heads and your hearts before God, and let the will, the blessed will of God, be done." -Amy Carmichael

" One can give without loving, but one cannot love without giving."- Amy Carmichael

My New Camera

At the beginning of this month I ordered and received my new camera! I love it. I got a Canon Powershot SX10 IS. A couple of the things that i was looking for when I got this camera was that it still had to have the swivel screen, and I wanted it to take good pictures without having it be a SLR camera. Here's what my camera looks like:

The Front- And the lense does not come off.

The Back

And what's also nice is that the camera is not really heavy, and you can also hook a flash up to it ( I haven't tried it yet though), and the picture quality is fantastic!

This is amazing

This is from the Ukraine's Got Tallent, and boy does this girl have talent! I'm not sure if she actually won or not, but I think she should win. And if you are wondering what she is drawing about, she is drawing about the Nazi invasion on the Ukraine in 1940.
