Today I begin work on “the big house”! Today will be mostly a painting day, helped by my contractor and friend who did my fireplace. He will tackle the places that are thirty feet in the air. My nerves and my back thank him 🙂
Please pray again with me. I have collected many things for this home and I am excited, as I know they are, for this all to come together. Pray that it portrays their hearts and offers them a wonderful place of retreat and rest. The goal is a Tuscan type feel, with deep, warm colors and textures. Today we begin with an open canvas. In two days, this canvas will take on a whole new look and feel.
Jesus, please give creativity, sensitivity and needed strength for the job ahead. Work with me and in me and through me as we do this project. May the beauty that You create bring You glory. Guide my hands. Form my thoughts. Use whatever I have to offer. And may Samantha’s house be another reminder of Your great transforming work in us….
And Jesus, please remind me to take before pictures today…:-)
