It was in my Son's Colby First Grade Class, it was at Stockton Christian School.
The class was taught my a wonderful Christian Lady named Mary Byrd. Most if not all the children that circulated through her class received the Holy Ghost in the morning devotional time. The children would pray together, if it seemed the spirit was moving she would go with that. The # of children getting the Holy Ghost in her class over the 30 years she taught is countless.

So with the background, she called my wife who also was helping at the school in another grade. A picture was snapped while she was helping to pray for Colby.

It was a film picture and taken in the classroom.

I am not saying it is this or that, that is why I submitted it for approval. But allow me to play advocate for it being a glimpse into a spiritual phenomenon.

It was the exact moment he was receiving the spirit.

The light/exposure was in the form of flames

Why would a poor exposure shape itself in with those two exact hard to match coincidences? Something to consider.
Exposures can be complex...even dust particles have appeared to some people as "balls of light" and interpreted by some having seen them on video as "spirit beings" to UFOs.

But as part of the photo, those flames are not the only "aberration". Just the general orangish blur also might suggest a bad photo.

They certainly are conspicuous though appearing only over your son's head and appearing like flames...

Im still just curious why we never see these things with the eyes but the camera picks them up

  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Right now in your room are signals, cell signals, TV, sat, radar, etc. You just need the right device tuned in to pick them up. Some times there are aberrations that can't be explained.

Either way the photo is neat and is real conversation starter.

What do you think? Is it Real, bad lighting/exposure, or something else entirely.

I don't always look for the super spiritual answer to normal occurrences, but I don't think this to be coincidental.

Cool picture!
