In the photo are shadows of myself and a friend, taken at the parking lot of Jeddah International Market. January 22, 2012.

Show the wonder of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes. Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies who surround me. ~ Psalms 17:7-9

"The Cross"

2012-01-23T14:23:00.002+03:00

I took this during our Basic Discipleship Study. January 13, 2012.

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” ~ 1 Corinthians 1:18-19

"Bottles"

2012-01-15T20:13:00.001+03:00

Jesus answered,“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” ~ John 4: 13-14

"Sleeping Bruno"

This is Bruno (my cat), sleeping on a moquette on top of a small table. This photo was taken on November 15, 2011.

Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?” Let the light of your face shine upon us, O Lord.

You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound. I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. ~ Psalms 4: 6-8

"Mailboxes" (Los Buzones de Correo)

2011-12-12T21:33:00.004+03:00

These dilapidated numbered mailboxes are just some of the millions of mailboxes that can be found around Jeddah. You can usually find them in residential areas and just like this one, you can also find them in office buildings. They were installed around 3 years ago, but were never used.

"By all means, go," the king of Aram replied. "I will send a letter to the king of Israel." So Naaman left, taking with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold and ten sets of clothing. ~ 2 Kings 5:5

"Looking In"

2011-12-08T17:44:00.005+03:00

A guy standing by the stairs, who works at a nearby barbershop looks back at me inside the remittance center while I'm on a queue to send money. From the reflction you could see some of the people ahead of me. This is at the second floor of Telemoney in Balad (Jeddah). December 5, 2011. (Click photo to enlarge)

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does. ~ James 1: 22-25

"Rear View 2"

2011-12-06T15:25:00.002+03:00

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. ~ 1 Corinthians 13: 11-13

"Blue" (Azul)

A photo of a bright blue colored tea light candle lamp at the opposite side of an elaborately decorated glass above a door inside my apartment. December 3, 2011.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered." No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ~ Romans 8:35-39

"Alone But Happy"

A female stray cat sitting on a low concrete fence with the football stadium as her background. This was taken at Faisaliah District, Jeddah on November 23, 2011.

I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength. ~ Philippians 4: 11-13

My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding, and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. ~ Proverbs 2: 1-6

"The Writings on The Wall" (Arabic Vandalism)

2011-11-27T18:33:00.003+03:00

Vandalism at the side wall of an apartment building at the corner of Rawdah Street and Madinah Road (Jeddah). Obviously, I have no control over the scribbles and so if ever a not-so-nice translation literally comes up and get to my face, well I just aimed my lens at them and not bothered at all how one reads it. Notice also the windows and air conditioners of some of the apartments. (Click photo to enlarge)

Suddenly the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall, near the lampstand in the royal palace. The king watched the hand as it wrote. His face turned pale and he was so frightened that his knees knocked together and his legs gave way. ~ Daniel 5: 5-6

"Feeling Out Of Place"

2011-11-25T16:27:00.002+03:00

An old decrepit sofa steals the limelight from otherwise glittery parked cars that ironically throng around her and might be wondering how ugly she could get just being close by. This was taken at the corner of "Cubri Murabah" (crossing flyover) on Madinah Road and Rawdah street in Jeddah on November 23, 2011. (Click photo to enlarge)

Do not turn your back on me. Do not reject your servant in anger. You have always been my helper. Don’t leave me now; don’t abandon me, O God of my salvation! Even if my father and mother abandon me, the LORD will hold me close. Teach me how to live, O LORD. Lead me along the right path, for my enemies are waiting for me. ~ Psalms 27: 9-11

"No Parking" (By The Wide Gate)

2011-11-23T23:49:00.005+03:00

A cat walks past an old rusty huge metal gate with "No Parking" written all over it. This was taken in front of a barber shop (where I usually have my hair cut) near Al Khaleej Hotel in Al Hada street, Faisaliah. November 23, 2011. (Click photo to enlarge)

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. ~ Mattew 7:13-14

"The Wreck Of The Hesperus"

2011-11-15T18:31:00.003+03:00

A wrecked fishing boat lays forlorn and marooned near a seaport (fish market) in Jeddah. This was taken last July 25, 2011.

Then the LORD sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us, and we will not perish.” ~ Jonah 1:4-6

"A Pan Of Hot Dogs"

2011-11-09T22:37:00.005+03:00

An old sauce pan (not a frying pan) full of chicken hot dogs on a gas stove for lunch. This photo was taken inside the kitchen of my apartment last October 26, 2011. Can you count how many pieces of hot dogs in the pan?

“Are you so dull?” he asked.“Don’t you see that nothing that enters a man from the outside can make him ‘unclean’? For it doesn’t go into his heart but into his stomach, and then out of his body.” (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods “clean.”) ~ Mark 7:18-19

"Old And Badly Beaten"

2011-11-02T17:48:00.004+03:00

This is a photo of an old stray tomcat which I found resting near the place where I park my car, in front of my apartment. The lack of government or NGO's support for the welfare of animals in Saudi Arabia results to stray cats propagating exponentially. I took this photo last October 5, 2011. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

"Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing: "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!" ~ Revelation 5:13

"Choo-Choo"

2011-10-28T18:33:00.006+03:00

Choo-choo is the name of my friends' dog. I think he's half chihuahua and half something else. I took this photo last October 21, 2011 at my friends house somewhere in Jeddah.

"A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal, but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel." ~ Proverbs 12:10

"What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?" ~ Matthew 16:26

"Awesome Cute-ness"

2011-10-01T23:12:00.004+03:00

These are just 2 of the 5 stray kittens that I've rescued weeks ago outside my apartment. They don't have any name yet, so I often call them 'Cuty-cute' obviously because of their out-of-this-world cuteness level. This photo was taken last September 14, 2011. Read the story of these kittens on my blog The X-SPOT.

Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil. ~ Jeremiah 13: 23

"Feeding Frenzy"

2011-09-15T22:11:00.004+03:00

This photo of a man feeding the pigeons was taken at a vulcanizing shop at the corner of Al Ashtar street and Imam Al Abdulaziz street in Faisaliah District (near Arab News head office) in Jeddah last August 6, 2011.

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? ~ Matthew 6: 25-27

" An Afternoon Swing"

2011-09-07T19:41:00.003+03:00

My colleague riding the swing in an unconventional way. This photo was taken at the corniche in the afternoon of July 25, 2011.

"Two Stray Cats In The Street"

2011-08-27T17:31:00.004+03:00

This photo was taken at a street near the headquarters of the Arab News last December 23, 2010. It seems one of the cat is bold enough to come near the window of my car to ask for something to eat.

Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an evil spirit came and fell at his feet. The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter. “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to their dogs.” “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “but even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.” Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.” She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone. ~ Mark 7: 24-30

I took this pick up truck loaded with different sizes of blue containers, sacks of rice and boxes somewhere within the historic part of Balad (Jeddah) last July 25, 2011. This particular location is just a stone throw away from the office of the company where I'm currently working.

As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces.This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like chrysolite, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel.As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not turn about as the creatures went.Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around. ~ Ezekiel 1: 15-18

"Crucifijo 1 & 2"

2011-08-05T18:42:00.011+03:00

"Crucifijo 1"

"Crucifijo 2"

These photos were taken at the Iglesia de Nuestra Señora del Perpetuo Socorro or simply the Redemptorist Church located at the Redemptorist street, Baclaran, Parañaque City, Manila on June 11, 2011. This was during my vacation in The Philippines last May - June 2011. (I'm a Christian, but not a Catholic.)

When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. Or do you think Scripture says without reason that the spirit he caused to live in us envies intensely?But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:

“God opposes the proud

but gives grace to the humble.”
~ James 4: 3-6

"Arabian Siesta"

This is a photo of my kitten Undas. His name is the other term we use (in the Philippines) aside from 'El Dia de Todos Los Santos' or 'All Saints Day' which we celebrate every 1st of November of the year.

"Driving Under A Dusky Sky"

2011-04-09T18:16:00.002+03:00

I didn't like this photo so much at first because I thought it's too dark and because the photo is a bit blurred, but because I really love the effect it gives (especially the dusky sky), I decided to post it anyway ( after a year!). I think this photo is so Daido Moriyama, it has that 'creepiness' in it, (in a good way!). This photo was taken at a street near IKEA in Thalia street, Jeddah. January 6, 2010.

It just rained that morning, that's why the side of the road is a little bit flooded on the right side. This is just a part of a long and almost endless road going to the main highway.
