The Light of Jesus
In celebration of the 2017 Easter holiday, I opened this gallery, which features some of my most treasured moments with the Divine spirit/energy ("The Light") of Jesus. My intention was to share these videos and images for one week only and then return the gallery to “private” status. But, a friend asked me why I was putting a time limit on sharing this gallery and the only answer I could come up with was fear. The fear of being judged and criticized. While I have had years to experience, interpret, and embrace my visits with The Light of Jesus, the same is not true for you. Most visitors to my website are drawn to my nature images and have no idea that when they search my website that I photograph more than birds, butterflies and flowers. So, I thought if I left this gallery open for too long, I ran the risk of alienating my visitors and, in turn, affecting my professional reputation. While my experiences with Archangels have been well received, people have very strong opinions/beliefs about Jesus and these differing values often divide people. For these reasons, I had convinced myself that seven days was just enough time to open this gallery, share my experiences, and then close the door. But on the 7th day, which was Easter Sunday, I had a change of heart. Fear was not only preventing me from sharing all aspects of my photography, it was also causing me great anxiety, because I was hiding my truth. Now, the gallery remains open to anyone who wishes to explore it, and perhaps, wishes to expand their consciousness.
So, with that said, here’s my truth. I, too, had very strong beliefs about Jesus, which were inherited from the religious schools I attended, the churches I attended, and the books I read. I also had a mental image of what Jesus looked like. Consequently, when the spirit of Jesus appeared to me in my backyard, as a large Light that swirled in front of me, and morphed in color from blue and gold, blue and pink, and playfully began darting back and forth, I had absolutely no frame of reference to comprehend what was happening to me. No life experience, and no one, could have prepared me for such an encounter. I went into an emotional mini-meltdown, for about a year, as my concept of reality crumbled. I could no longer see, or relate to, the world in the same manner. I went, deep, into a soul searching journey to understand the “who/what/why” of that first encounter and all the encounters that followed. With time, and tons of inward and outward work, I began to embrace (or "go with the flow!"), that The Light I was photographing, and interacting with, was not just the spirit of Jesus, but also Mother Mary, Saint Francis of Assisi, Archangels, and many other Light Beings.
In the more than five years I have been photographing The Light of Jesus, He has only come to me once in human form. His recurring appearance is pure Light that is constantly changing in size, shape and color. Sometimes, He uses His shape and color to communicate a message. His Light radiates great love, joy, humor, grace, fun, and profound compassion. I have wept and laughed in His presence. At times, I have been chilled to my core, felt so hot I thought I had a fever, and felt sick to my stomach, because His Light is so powerful. And, The Light of Jesus is my continual source of inspiration. The root of the word "inspiration" is "spirit," and His spirit has literally changed the spirit within me.
By exploring this gallery, I hope you will look within at your own beliefs and consider that there is more going on around you than your perceptive reality. My role is not to convince you of anything, but instead, to share my extraordinary, personal journey with The Light. When spending time with these videos and images, pay close attention to how you feel emotionally and physically. Then, use your own inner compass and come to your own conclusions.
Thank you for visiting. May The Light always accompany you.
John 8:12: When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the Light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the Light of life.”
MY FIRST TIME FILMING THE LIGHT OF JESUS - MAY 15, 2014 - IN NORMAL SPEED
This video was shot in the far right corner of my backyard on the evening of May 15, 2014, around 9:45 pm. As had been my normal practice, I was taking photographs in my yard and I had already taken 46 photographs. For the 47th photograph, I was sitting on the ground and aiming my camera towards this small area behind my converted garage. I pressed the shutter button and I saw a body of Light appear near the ground. I pressed the shutter button again and this time I saw a large body of Light to the left of the frame. I kept hitting the shutter button and seeing a moving body of Light, in different colors, that appeared to be darting back and forth in front of me. I thought something was stuck to my lens. I kept turning my camera over and blowing on the lens, hoping to remove the obstruction. When The Light kept appearing, I decided to start videotaping the area to see if The Light would continue to appear. Now, you have to understand, that until that moment, I had been taking one photograph at a time and capturing a variety of beautiful Light Beings, but none of them stayed in front of me for any length of time. So, my mind was having a hard time comprehending why this Light kept appearing. I decided to videotape the area to see what would happen.
In the first two videos I took, still aiming my camera behind my garage, The Light did not appear. But, when I turned around in the opposite direction, The Light appeared beneath my 30 year old Japanese Maple tree. It was like I was watching life in slow motion. My camera was focused on the little decorative bird house I had hanging from the tree and the trunk of the tree and cinder block wall were my backdrop. The crickets were chirping, I heard the deep engine sound of an airplane overhead, and I watched a few small orbs pass in front of the camera. I thought my camera was in focus, but I watched as the lens shifted, ever so gently, and then from my right side His translucent golden Light swirled into view, turned blue, and exited to my left. A few seconds later, He came from my right side, dipped down in front of the camera, and swirled back up and out of the frame. He appeared like a hologram and I seriously questioned if He was real. But, I could see and sense His joy that I was filming Him!
He quickly returned and began swirling in front of me, displaying the most beautiful indigo blue color tinged with pink and orange. But, the colors were continually morphing as He swirled about. The leaves and trunk of the tree were illuminated by His Light and I watched as a small moth flew through His Light and kept going about its business. Then, He began peeking in and out of the frame like he was playing a game of "now you see me, now you don’t! "
This first video was only 1 minute and 15 seconds because it never occurred to me to keep my camera rolling. Seriously! I simply had no frame of reference on what to expect and when He stayed out of view for a short while, I thought He had left, so I turned my camera off. And, you may wonder why I never moved my camera to try and follow Him! Again, I simply was not comprehending what was happening! Little did I know this was just the beginning of videotaping my visits with Jesus.
