"Stand, therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace" (Ephesians 6.14)

We can find things that point to TRUTH everywhere. These

Are Obects that are “Analagous” to TRUTH. A Steeple, for

Example, points upward towards God, while the Body of

The Church Reminds us of God’s Immanence as Well.

A Lighthouse, to me, is Symbolic of a Beacon of Hope—of

The LIGHT that is in all of God’s Faithful. The Beauty of Arcadia University regardless of What I know or Don’t Know about the School is a Pleasant Reminder of our Beautiful Lord. The Simplicity of the Mennonite Church Pictured Here is a

Excellent Reminder of the Fact that We don’t Necessarily Need Elaborate Settings or Buildings, Pictures, or Even a Cross, to be Humbled by the Greatness of God.
