Carpentering for the Carpenter

Our freshly mowed back yard as seen from our deck. The trees are a nice feature.The signs of life and growth around the house are God's encouragement to us that the things inside will be renewed too. Our contractor says he can be done by August first, which is two weeks before we have to be out of our temporary home.

God brings order out of chaos. (See Genesis 1:2ff) And He created us human beings, especially men, to do the same.(Genesis 1:26-28). To that end He gives us strength to clean up, build, rebuild, and restore things in our lives. So we trust our loving Creator as we move ahead with the situations of life, such as the one Colleen and I face right now.
