I used to call any money I found in laundered clothes "manna." I figured it was money I didn't know I had, so why not give thanks to God for it! Yesterday I got a huge chunk of photography manna. A friend of mine has an uncle who does photography and has some spare change, if you know what I mean. He has a $24,000 photo printer, if that helps paint the picture (or print it, as the case may be). Anyway, this uncle decided to give my friend one of his lenses. I think it's a 28-300mm made by Sigma. My friend, in turn, decided he would sell the lens pictured above for $50. It's an 80-200mm f4.5 Canon zoom.
This is exactly what I've been wishing for to do my portrait work. A "long lens" helps to blur the background when taking pictures close up. I can also use it to do some sports photography, which I really enjoy. Thanks, Jeff, and thank you, God!
That rocks! I'm happy for you. God has put a few people in my life who love to spoil my wife and I and we are suprised and praise God every time. We were given a free honeymoon and several envelopes of money hidden in our cars. We know we don't deserve it. I think that wouyld be manna as well.
