New House Pictures & "The Message"

I hope you all are having a wonderful 2009. We are! God is doing mighty things in Wichita Falls. Life is just exciting.

I thought I'd post a few more pictures of the progress on the house. It always goes slower than you want it to, but once it's finished, we will be very happy with the results.

The MANY colors are beginning to disappear.

New bathroom cabinets have been put in.The entertainment center has been installed in the game room.

We are looking forward to moving in - hopefully not too far in the future. Life is busy and will only get busier, but that's the way I like it most of the time.

One more thing: Cameron gave me a "Message" Bible for Christmas, and I love it! I'm reading in James and this passage caught my attention.

James 1:22-25 (The Message)
"Don't fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don't act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like. But whoever catches a glimpse of the revealed counsel of God - the free life! - even out of the corner of his eye, and sticks with it, is no distracted scatterbrain but a man or woman of action. That person will find delight and affirmation in the action."

I don't want to just be a "hearer" of God's word, but I want to take action on what He is speaking to me personally and to us as a church.

Those of you who are still keeping up with blogs, I pray you have a great "rest of the week."
