Provision

This fishing shanty, located at Stony Point, was built to support the thriving fishing industry on the North Shore at the time. This rugged structure protects the nets and other tools that fishermen rely on, even during the fiercest storms. It’s a quiet little survivor of North Shore working history — part fishing shelter, part weather station, part time capsule.

There are many of these old shacks along the North Shore, and all have a story to tell. One of the strengths, fortitude, and persistence of the fishermen who made a living from the big lake. They had no idea it would become a photography attraction years later.

Life was very hard for these families as they lived through seasons that are now gone.

“Therefore, I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing? - Matthew 6:25

God’s provision is one of His mighty attributes, for which we can be thankful daily! How will you live your next season of life?
