 Some things are just hard to explain...aren't they?

The Mystery of Cades Cove

You may have heard of Cades Cove. It is nestled in the Great Smoky Mountains. In years past it had been occupied by Native Americans. Ken and Cheri LaValley have vacationed there and on a recent trip went out looking for an old cemetery. Actually it is a burial ground that dates back into the 1800s. It was there that this picture was taken.

Let's pick up the story at this point with Ken describing what happened.

"At the time the photo was taken, Cheri and I were looking for an old cemetery that has a section where some of the inhabitants of the town are buried. Dates go back to the 1800's. I saw the doe in the trees and took one photograph. We did not discover the image in the background until we got back to our cabin that night and brought it up on the television to view."

Do you see the image in the background?
If not we have tried to help you out...check the image below...

What exactly did Ken catch in the picture?
Well, it could be a number of things. The picture has been looked at by a variety of people and it has not been tampered with. Ken was not out looking to capture a mystery image in his picture. He was just taking a picture of a doe. So what is in the picture?

Some things are extremely hard to explain and can't always been explained away easily. However...and this is important. For those who follow Jesus there is nothing to be afraid of. Seriously, there are things that are hard to explain that get a little bit spooky, but you don't need to be afraid.
