Daniel - United States Of America

Nickname: FL7H

Raised mainly in a farming community (and a dysfunctional family), I was a lost and hurting lad before I came to know Christ more - more as a friend. I went to church as a boy, but I had no idea of a "real" relationship with Christ, and came from a family with "a lot" of pain (even up to this day)! But, Christ is "always" here, here for me, and here for you...always! (Hebrews 13:5). I am forever grateful!

As I became older, I was into fast cars, trying to get rich, music, and looking for love in all the wrong places! Thankfully, Christ knew me before all creation, and knowing His word is true...it says that He is faithful to complete the good work He first started in me! (Jeremiah 1:5). What a mighty God He is!!!

I moved eventually from Petersburg, Michigan to Toledo, Ohio. I picked up my own personal professional camera in about 1984. I went to a music information event where a man (John Muncy) was explaining about all the hidden messages that are found in much of the world's secular music. Music was a "big" part of my life back then, and God used that presentation to turn my heart to Him! What a long time ago that was...how much I have grown, and I still have such a long way to go!

I am ever so blessed just to have the opportunity to serve Christ, by using some of the gifts He has given me for His glory! I spent many years in the United States Navy, first in the aviation field, then in the field of photo intelligence. I love to travel the world and meet folks from all walks of life - meeting folks from all over God's planet. I long to share God's Word and awesome blessings with everyone I come in contact with! As He commands, we are to love everyone as He first loved us...AGAPE (1 Corinthians 13:13).

I use my photography to promote God's Kingdom and to show His beauty in nature. I work with homeless folks at a local ministry called CityTeam - as a counselor, board member and a mentor. I enjoy motorcycle riding to get away from it all and simply love going out on the streets to give food, and talk and listen to peoples' life stories. As a fisher of men, "maybe someday" I will even be blessed enough to meet you? (Matthew 28:18-20).

May God richly bless you and yours with eternal life as you seek Him!

In Christ Jesus, Daniel <><
