Shadow of the Cross
I saw this flower in my garden and the shadow of the cross lay across it. It was like a sign to me and I got the picture before the sun changed positions and the shadow disappeared. I did not put the shadow there, I just took the picture. I used Photoshop Fractilius and Micrografx to accomplish the finished work. I did not put the shadow there, I just took the picture.
1Co 1:18: For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
