Renovations…

Ahh…hardwood floors. LOVE it so far. As I’m typing, my brothers-in-law are putting the finishing touches on the floors in our living room and hallways. It looks great already – and it’s still dirty! :)

I’m so excited to see it completed and clean!

This morning I taught Sunday School and these renovations in my house bring to mind the lesson. It was about confessing the sin in our lives and restoring our relationship to a Holy God. That process is kind of like a renovation of the heart. We have to strip away the old and allow God to forgive us and make us new. A simple analogy, yes, but fitting if you think about it. I believe this is a daily process. Every day we have to come before our Lord and admit our shortcomings and accept His grace. Every day He will make us new and show us His will. I’m SO thankful that God’s love is UNFAILING! His mercies are new every morning. He doesn’t give up on the dead (that’s us – dead in our transgressions!). His grace is sufficient and covers all our sin. Praise Him!

I hope everyone is having a great day of rest. Half of my household is resting right now and the other half is working hard to finish these floors! My brothers-in-law are doing a great job!!

Looking forward to a week of VBS, running, and planning Children’s Camp!

What are you looking forward to this week?
